This PAS specifies supplementary requirements for the assessment of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the whole life cycle of any products manufactured substantially from textiles. The supplementary requirements provided are compatible with, and precisely formatted on, the PAS 2050:2011 methodology, but do not actually require the use of PAS 2050:2011 as a base methodology.

PAS 2395 requires the user, as a first step, to identify, from a predetermined list of internationally applicable methods, a preferred GHG assessment methodology, and to apply the selected method uniformly throughout the subsequent assessment process, applying supplementary requirements provided by this PAS accordingly.

Throughout PAS 2395, the clauses setting out the supplementary requirements for the assessment of GHG emissions from textile products are formatted to align with the relevant PAS 2050:2011 clause, but also provide cross references to the appropriate equivalent clause(s)/section(s) in the alternative methodologies, to facilitate their use in those contexts.

PAS 2395 provides supplementary requirements that, used together with the PAS 2050:2011 methodology, provide a robust specification for the assessment of GHG emissions from textile products. When used with the other specified methodologies, it can also deliver credible GHG emissions assessments that are optimized for textiles and textile-based products.

PAS 2395 follows the precedent set by PAS 2050:2011 in not specifying requirements for communication of the results of a quantification of the GHG emissions from the life cycle of textile products. It does, however, point to the communication approaches provided by the other comparable methodologies as being appropriate for use when communication of the assessment outcome is intended or expected.

The list of base methodologies from which selection may be made are:

  • ISO/TS 14067:2013;

  • WRI/WBCSD’s GHG Protocol Product Standard;

  • PAS 2050:2011.

PAS 2395 addresses the single impact category of global warming potential (GWP). It does not assess other potential social, economic and environmental impacts arising from the provision of textile products, such as non-GHG emissions, acidification, eutrophication, toxicity, biodiversity or labour standards, or other social, economic and environmental impacts that may be associated with the life cycle of such products. An assessment of the GHG emissions of textile products using PAS 2395 in conjunction with PAS 2050:2011, ISO/TS 14067:2013 or WRI/WBCSD’s GHG Protocol Product Standard does not, therefore, provide an indicator of the overall environmental impact of these products, such as may result from other types of life cycle assessment.
