Calculating the carbon footprint of recycled plastic products requires a complex analysis that takes into account several factors. For MIELL GREEN products, this process includes the following main steps:
1. Rawmaterial production stage:
The ecological impact of recycled plastic (e.g. PET, HDPE)
is significantly lower than that of fresh plastic, because:
75-90% less energy consumption
50-70% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions
Zeroing in on environmental damage from incineration or
landfilling
2. Product manufacturing process:
Energy balance: Energy requirements for extrusion, molding
and UV stabilization (e.g. kWh/product unit)
Water and chemical use: Sinking of production technologies
and the absence of hazardous substances
3. Transportation and logistics:
Distance of transport of the raw material (e.g. from local
(Hungarian) waste processor)
Distribution routes for the finished product (CO₂
emissions/km)
4. Useful endurance:
The durability of the product (e.g. 10-30 years) reduces the environmental impact caused by frequent replacements Lack of maintenance: Does not require painting or impregnation, avoiding toxic material emissions
5. Possibility of recycling:
The product can be recycled (cradle-to-cradle principle), reducing waste
Example calculation (simplified):
For a MIELL GREEN raised garden bed:
Raw material: 20 kg recycled HDPE (≈ 15 kg CO₂ savings vs. fresh plastic)
Production: 50 kWh energy (low emissions → from renewable sources)
Lifespan: 25 years (vs. 5-8 year replacement cycle for wooden garden furniture)
Final processing: 100% recyclable

Zero deforestation (tree substitution)
Supporting a waste-based economy
For accurate calculations, a life cycle analysis (LCA) is performed, which includes detailed measurements of each phase. In the case of MIELL GREEN products, this process is transparently documented.
