A bound book and a flyer differ greatly in size and weight, but their CO\u2082 impact can be fairly juxtaposed thanks to this method. <\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-4545\" src=\"https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3-300x169.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"788\" height=\"444\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/drukkerijhendrix.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Climate-calc-certificaat-3.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 788px) 100vw, 788px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Certified and audited figures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The CO\u2082 figures we communicate are not estimates, but standardized and verified values.
