Wood-cased pencils

The production of wood-cased pencils fell moderately by ten per cent in the 2020/21 financial year. Due to long-term ordering processes, this is not reflected in the input figures for purchased wooden boards, which increased slightly by ten per cent.

Plastic-based writing instruments and products

The share of plastic-based writing instruments fell by 42 per cent to 566 million units compared to the 2019/20 financial year. Peru, Malaysia, India and Brazil in particular had sharp production declines due to COVID-19 and temporary production closures.

Waste water

As in previous years, waste water was reduced by 25 per cent. This was due to a lower water demand due to lower production utilisation.

CO2 emissions

Total emissions fell by 25 per cent in the 2020/21 financial year due to the increased use of renewable energies and reduced Scope 3 emissions as a result of hardly any business trips being undertaken.

Waste disposal

The total amount of waste increased by 13 per cent in 2020/21 compared to the previous year. The reason for this is the new inclusion of the North American cosmetics plant in the data analysis.
