Calculate Embedded Emissions for Unwrought Aluminium (HS7601)

Enter your input

Payable emissions (tCO₂e/t)

Total CBAM Cost (€)

Notes:
There may be a difference when calculating the price with respect to import volume, carbon price, and benchmark emissions, as the embedded formula may result in minor variations due to decimal rounding. Therefore, the actual value may vary.

CBAM is applicable to trade volumes starting from 50 metric tonnes. For trade volumes below 50 metric tonnes, CBAM does not apply.

chargeable percentage (as per the phase-in year),
and imported quantity.

The system will automatically calculate the payable
emissions and the total CBAM cost (€) based on the
inputs provided.

Notes:
• Change any input value to automatically update CBAM cost.
• Formula used: Carbon price × payable emissions × quantity.
• Model aligned with CBAM supplier-side illustrative methodology.

Meadow has unveiled a refill system built around aluminium packaging, aimed at consumer goods companies seeking to reduce waste and comply with new packaging regulations.

The launch comes as businesses prepare for stricter packaging requirements under the European Union’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and California’s Senate Bill 54 (SB54).

Aluminium plays a central role in the system’s design. The company said the metal’s durability and recyclability make it suitable for repeated use, while its protective properties help preserve product quality.

According to Meadow, the refill solution has been designed for retail and commercial environments with a focus on operational efficiency, product protection and waste reduction.

The system includes a tamper-resistant refill mechanism intended to maintain product safety and hygiene during use. Meadow said the refill process can be completed in around 22 seconds and is designed to minimise spills and handling issues.

The dispenser also includes a built-in alert feature that notifies staff when refill levels are running low, helping reduce interruptions during operation.

Victor Ljungberg, Co-Founder and CEO at Meadow, said, “We created Meadow because we could see that sustainable packaging was failing, not because people did not care, but because the solutions asked too much of them. The Meadow Kapsul SleeveLock applied this to the hospitality industry.

It’s faster and simpler for housekeeping teams while costing operators no more than the systems they are currently using. It also delivers a premium finish that mid to high-end properties expect. The hospitality industry has a significant packaging waste issue, and we believe the Meadow Kapsul SleeveLock is a significant step towards helping businesses begin to solve it.”
