Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
The benefits
In short- Hotspot analyses
- Insights into improvements
- Collaboration with suppliers
- Compare environmental performance
- Transparent reporting
Our Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) offer clear insight into the environmental impact of your product - from production and processing to consumption and end-of-life. This globally recognised method provides a structured approach to measuring sustainability.
Standardised approach in 6 steps
We apply a standardised six-step method to quantify environmental impact, identify hotspots, and uncover opportunities for improvement. Whether you require a quick scan or a detailed analysis, our iterative process ensures consistent results.
Step 1: Define the scope
Work with our experts and industry partners to outline the value chain, focusing on key regions and indicators.
Step 2: Gather data
Collect data from your organisation and suppliers. We combine this primary data with secondary sources such as literature and databases.
Step 3: Develop the model
Build an LCA model and calculate the environmental impact.
Step 4: Analyse hotspots
Identify key impact indicators, sensitive input parameters, and areas for improvement.
Step 5: Assess improvement potential
Evaluate the potential for improvement by adjusting input parameters.
Step 6: Present results
Share and validate findings with stakeholders and industry partners.
Are you aiming to set the standard in your sector? We also develop LCA-standards together with relevant partners.
