How much energy and water is needed to produce a Dopper product?
Dopper Original
The raw materials and the distribution of products also require energy. The related greenhouse gasses are called the embodied emissions. The Dopper Product Passport contains the embodied emissions for the Dopper Original.
Water
No water is consumed in the actual fabrication process. There's water in the cooling channels to keep the temperature of the moulds under control, but it's pumped around in a closed loop. That means water coming from the machine is used to heat up the facility and directed back to the machine again.
In 2024, 2223 m3 of water has been used at the factory from the municipal supply for personal use (toilets and showers), cleaning, and the maintenance of the cooling channels. [per Dopper Original bottle ca. 0,09m3 is used] Some water evaporates during this process. In 2024, ca. 1350 m3 water has been discharged from the factory to a municipal sewage system close by for primary and secondary treatment. The production takes place in a low-water stress zone, so the water use does not impact the local environment.
Dopper Steel/Insulated
Energy
The Dopper Steel and Insulated models are produced using injection moulding and steel fabrication. Both processes run on electricity. In 2023 the total power consumption at the production facilities of both Dopper Steel and Insulated was 636,1 MWh. A part of this energy, 83,2 MWh was generated onsite by solar panels. 90,0 MWh was purchased as green energy (so-called RECs). This means that the production facilities run for 27,2% on renewable energy.
The resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the production facilities are reported for Scope 1 (e.g., direct onsite incineration of fuels) and Scope 2 (purchased electricity):
Energy
The Dopper Original is produced using the injection moulding technique. Our supplier uses electricity to power the machines. In the reporting year 2024 this was 187 MWh. About half of the energy is generated on-site with solar panels, the other part is purchased as green energy.
The resulting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the production facilities are reported for Scope 2 in 2024: 42,7 tCO2e indirect emissions (using location-based method) and 18,97 tCO2e indirect emissions (using market-based method).

- Scope 2: 315,3 tCO2e
Water
In 2023 the production facilities for the Dopper Steel and Insulated withdrew 66.208 m3 of water from the municipal supply. A total of 10.438 m3 was consumed (e.g. evaporated in the process) and 55.770 m3 was discharged as clean water to the drain. The regional water stress level at the production facilities is low (<10%) at the facility for the Dopper Steel and high (40%-80%) at the facility for the Dopper Insulated. This means that water consumption and discharge can potentially affect the environment. Therefore, additional measures are implemented to minimize the water-related stress.
The water consumption per product is shared in the Dopper Product Passport.
