Life cycle assessment : Explo 86

Carbon footprint composition: An overview

The Explo 86 has an average carbon footprint of 23.11 kgCO2eqwhich corresponds roughly to the carbon emissions produced by a small car over 122 km.

Carbon footprint composition: Materials

To improve performance on hard snow without compromising weight, the Explo incorporates two layers of carbon. While this choice contributes to its carbon footprint, it is partially offset by the use of a locally sourced poplar core from the Bas-St-Laurent region of Quebec, as well as biobased topsheet and epoxy.
