APPENDIX 5: company analysis This appendix provides more information on the companies for which plastic natural capital cost and intensity were calculated. The first column highlights which sectors of activity of the company were included in the analysis. The second column identifies the regions where sales occur, which is used for downstream modelling. The third column displays quantitative data points that Trucost was able to include in the analysis. Most companies disclose some data around plastic use and disposal; however, data could be integrated in the model only in half of cases due to insufficient coverage and details. Finally, the last column provides the source for this information. Refer to Appendix 3 for a more detailed explanation of how total natural capital cost and intensity were modelled at a company level.
