As part of our ongoing commitment to responsibility, we are continually striving for greater transparency when it comes to the environmental features of our products. From the first sketches of a new idea, to when a product leaves our warehouse gates, until the recycling of each component, we always consider responsibility. As one of our environmental goals is prioritizing long life-cycle products, all Martela products are designed to be long-lasting and safe to use.

EPD documents

Since December 2023, we have published independently verified EPDs (Environmental Product Declarations) for selected products. All our EPD documents can be found in the EPD Norge database. The EPD document is based on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) covering the entire life cycle of the product. The EPD includes numerous indicators of environmental impacts and resource use from raw material procurement, processing, and transport to the factory, continuing to production and delivery of the product to the customer. The calculation also includes post-use dismantling, transport, material handling, recycling, and disposal.

Carbon footprint calculations

Carbon Footprint is one measurement we can use to estimate a product’s impact on the environment. That's why Martela started to measure carbon footprint of its products in the 2010s up until it leaves our warehouse gates; and as well as giving values, we also want to give the information behind these values. The carbon footprint calculation also serves as a quick source of basic product information, listing the materials used and their quantities.

As one of the first companies to provide this level of transparency, we want to offer our customers the knowledge of our products’ carbon footprints to help them make purchasing decisions between different variants based on understanding of the impact the products have on the environment. The calculation includes the life cycle impacts of the materials, assembly process, packaging and logistics.
