Sustainability Story
What is Climate Neutrality
A state in which human activities result in no net effect on the climate system. Requires balancing of residual greenhouse gas emissions with reductions or removals. All Climate Neutral Certified brands must meet climate neutrality standards for measuring, offsetting, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from making and delivering products and services.
This certification covers business activities and operations for the following brands :
P.F. Candle Co. achieved Climate Neutral Certification as part of 's certification process. 's measurement, offsetting and reduction plans fully account for P.F. Candle Co.'s 2021 emissions
01 Measure
P.F. Candle Co. measured Scope 1, 2 and 3 cradle-to-customer emissions following categories and approaches established in the Climate Neutral standards.
GHG Protocol Scope 1
Emissions from energy used in buildings, fleets, and equipment.
3 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 2
Emissions from electricity.
8 tCO2e
GHG Protocol Scope 3
Emissions from raw materials, manufacturing, shipping, air travel, and other activities in the supply chain.
2525 tCO2e
Total Carbon Emissions
The sum of Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
2536 tCO2e
02 Offset
P.F. Candle Co. invested in projects outside of their value chain to compensate for all of their measured carbon emissions. This step supports their climate neutrality designation, and enables P.F. Candle Co. to take responsibility for historical emissions that can’t be reduced.
Total Investment in Carbon Credits
$14,049
P.F. Candle Co.'s credits came from:
Forestry ?
Forestry
There are many types of forestry projects. Some protect forests from deforestation, while others to plant new trees to restore existing forests. Many projects do both.
Cookstoves ?
Cookstoves
Projects that help communities replace inefficient wood-burning cookstoves with more efficient, safer models.
Renewable Energy ?
Renewable Energy
Projects that help catalyze the development of renewable energy in order to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
Offset equivalency
For reference, reducing a footprint by 1000 tonnes is roughly equal to removing 230 passenger vehicles from the road for a year.

P.F. Candle Co. is implementing a Reduction Action Plan to reduce emissions from within its own operations and supply chain.
Current Year Reduction Actions
01
What We’re Reducing
Reduce the amount of paper-based materials used in wholesale packaging and in turn reduce our shipping and storage footprint for those orders.
How We'll Reduce It
Redesign and/or update material used to condense size of our wholesale case-packs. Current packaging prioritizes protection & user ease resulting in wasted space. The redesign will allow more product in the same footprint using less materials each pack.
02
What We’re Reducing
We plan to reduce our electricity usage as a company by 10%.
How We'll Reduce It
Running our Culver City shop on 100% renewable energy. At locations without the option for renewable energy, looking into timers for technology, HVAC, and other big energy users. Working with lights off. Implement small changes to make a difference.
