What does CBAM mean for the South African industry? The European Union plans to implement the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in 2026 to promote decarbonisation and encourage cleaner industrial production. This initiative will impose significant costs on manufacturers and affect the export market. Read about how the NCPC and Manufacturing Circle are supporting industry in this transition. https://lnkd.in/d2_XBKzm

About us
The National Cleaner Production Centre South Africa (NCPC-SA) is a programme of the South African government focused on enabling the country's industrial sector to increase its competitive capability and sustainability through more resource efficient and cleaner production. The NCPC-SA falls under the auspices of the Department of Trade and Industry (the dti) and is hosted on its behalf by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR). The NCPC-SA promotes the implementation of Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production (RECP) methodologies to assist industry to lower costs through reduced energy, water and materials usage, and waste management. The NCPC-SA is a member of UNIDO and UNEP’s global resource efficiency and cleaner production network (RECPnet) and plays a leading role in the African Roundtable on Sustainable Production and Consumption (ARSCP), with the NCPC-SA currently the President of the African body.

A partnership project of the NCPC. Watch this space for more #circulareconomy tools and tips. Lee-Hendor Ruiters
#TeamCSIR has developed guidelines (https://lnkd.in/dd7bgzAF) for #PROs and producers to give effect to their life cycle assessment obligations under mandatory EPR (https://bit.ly/EPR-Regs). Find out more about the CSIR’s LCA service offering at https://lnkd.in/dQ7jXUUq. Guideline 1 (https://lnkd.in/dxbBmGBP) provides best practice for undertaking LCA studies, guidelines 2-4 provide additional information. The project was funded by the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation through the #WasteRDIRoadmap and the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition through CSIR NCPC-SA.
