Lifecycle Assessment - MTN Summit Bindings

The MTN Summit touring binding is made with several small separate parts, which creates a lot of scraps. The recycling of material scraps could greatly decrease the global impact of the binding on climate change.

Top 4 indicators out of the 16 measured by the PEF method

• Climate change: emission of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, causing change in our current climate
• Particulate matter: emission of particles smaller than 2,5 micrometers
• Resource use: use of fossil resources (oil, coal, and natural gases) and mineral resources (metal, sand, and rare earths)

The life-cycle assessment has been conducted with a third-party based on the European Product Environmental Footprint methodology. ​Functional unit: 1 pair of MTN Summit bindings
