Assumptions

  • Example archetypes (food, garment, device, component) only pre-fill inputs; they do not change the maths.

How to read this page. “Your data” is what you enter or what your organisation has recorded. “Factor table” values come from official publications, each with its source; a “pending review” mark means the figure is still being checked against that source. “Ploxi assumption” is a figure we chose where the standard leaves the choice open.
