Paredes launches the Paredes Clean Index

The Paredes Clean Index is an innovative environmental impact labeling system for industrial hygiene products, developed by Paredes in collaboration with Glimpact and based on the European Union’s PEF (Product Environmental Footprint) methodology.

It aims to promote responsible purchasing and encourage suppliers to adopt eco-design practices, in line with the ESPR regulation into force since July 18, 2024. Already applied to 1,000 online products, the index features a color-coded A-to-E rating system, displays the carbon footprint (in kg CO2e), and includes a global impact calculator. With the involvement of 170 suppliers, this initiative represents a major step toward a more sustainable supply chain and the harmonization of environmental assessment methods across Europe.
