The CFP Solar Survey

CPA is launching the CFP Solar Survey as its first sector specific Survey.

The CFP Solar Survey is the same as the CFP Survey with the exception that it identifies priority chemicals of high concern (CoHCs) for reduction in products and manufacturing that are specifically relevant to the solar sector by:

Specifying Restricted Substances Lists (RSLs) for products (Questions I1 in the Product Module)
Specifying Manufacturing RSLs (MRSLs) for manufacturing operations (Question I1 in the Manufacturing Module)
Creating the CFP Solar CoHCs Reference List, which enables responders to report their chemical footprint (Question F2) and changes in their chemical footprint (Question F3) for CoHCs relevant to the solar sector in both products and manufacturing

The Chemical Footprint Project gives companies across all industries tools to evaluate their progress in reducing Chemicals of High Concern and proactively identify opportunities for further action,

- Joyce Taylor

CFP greatly simplifies the complex issue of chemicals management. We now have a tool that is available for plugging into purchasing decisions.

- Monica Nakielski

Hazardous chemicals “present reputational, regulatory, and reformulation risks across a broad range of industry sectors. Investors need to understand how companies are meaningfully managing these risks.

- Susan Baker

CFP is a market differentiator and provides a competitive advantage for business leaders. This new tool will add a level of transparency and help companies mitigate reputational and regulatory risks and exploit opportunities afforded by moving to safer chemicals.

- Roger McFadden

The Investor Environmental Health Network welcomes the launch of the Chemical Footprint Project. For too long chemicals and health have been missing pieces in Environmental Social Governance (ESG) assessments. Now we have a tool that investors can use to fill in this critical information.

- Richard Liroff

Participating in the Chemical Footprint Project pilot led us to develop a formal chemical policy that will be included on our website. Our chemicals policy and its successful implementation is the very heart of our company philosophy.
