Conducted by Groupe AGÉCO on a Medicom procedure mask and a N95 respirator, the study underwent a critical review by an independent committee of experts and was found to be compliant with the ISO 14044 standard in May of 2023.
The study focused on the use of these Medicom products in institutional settings in Quebec and using representative production activities from 2021.
First Medicom mask to undergo a life cycle assessment
Manufactured in Quebec
Potential environmental impacts reduced by 15% to 17%
311 metric tons of CO2 avoided in 2021
72% to 94% of these emission from the production of raw materials
First Medicom N95 respirator to undergo a life cycle assessment
Manufactured in Quebec
Potential environmental impacts reduced by 11% to 47%
273 metric tons of CO2 avoided in 2021
32% to 96% of these emissions from the production of raw materials
Lower potential impacts than their counterparts made in China.
Filters made of polypropylene produced in Quebec would allow for an additional reduction of 3 to 9% in the potential impact of Medicom’s procedure masks.
Quebec is the region that could produce polypropylene melt blown (MBPP) and polypropylene spunbound (SBPP) with the lowest impact, among the evaluated supply regions.
