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.

Usage Procedure – How to use the CBAM Calculator Sheet

Enter or update values only in the INPUT
PARAMETERS section (Highlighted in blue) , including
the carbon price, benchmark emissions, CBAM
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.

Use of new aluminium alloy blend creates the world’s lightest wristwatch, Ming LW.01

EDITED BY : MAYURAKSHI GANGULY 2MINS READ

The Ming LW.01 series, recently announced by Ming Thein's brand, has caused quite a stir in the watchmaking community. The series has set a new record in the industry by creating the world's lightest mechanical wristwatches. The company achieved this feat by using AZ31 Magnesium-Aluminium-Zinc-Manganese alloy, which is not only lighter than carbon but also has the tactile quality of metal.

The watch's creators further reduced its weight by using Corning Gorilla Glass 6 instead of sapphire crystal. This type of glass is significantly lighter than sapphire but has the same hardness and resistance. The bezel is also internally hollowed out, and the crown is made of anodized aluminium.

Internally, the dial ring and movement are combined and supported by a cage with 3D struts. The pulse seconds disc, the shrunken hour hand of the 17.03, and the gradient and skeleton peripheral ring of the 19 series are displayed on the watch. The watch is paired with an Alcantara strap with an AZ31 buckle.

Ming Thein claims that the latest releases from his namesake brand "are the world's lightest mechanical wristwatches."

The overall weight of the watch is an impressive 8.8 grams for the manually-wound version and 10.8 grams for the automatic. This is a significant achievement in the watchmaking industry, and it demonstrates the innovation and technical expertise of the Ming brand.

"It's a good hedge against potential incomplete information of the kind of technical boundaries that are being pushed and broken worldwide, but based on my research, I think they're right to be confident in their claims. We'll get to the competition in a minute, but first, the watch itself," he added.

The lightweight composition can be solely attributed to the use of aluminium alloy in the construction of the Ming LW.01 watch. It is a limited edition rollout where only 200 pieces will be circulated among watch enthusiasts. You should hurry if you want one.
