Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
We’ll help you optimize your products in line with global resource availability and environmental costs by assessing natural resource inputs and environmental impacts at every stage, from raw materials and production to customer use and ultimate disposal.
Traditional Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approaches can be time consuming and expensive – and the results are not easily translated into fundamental business terms.
Our approach not only saves you time and money, it also lets you visualize strategic, enterprise-level opportunities. We use advanced environmental modelling to qucikly provide an initial picture of environmental impacts across product portfolios. We then apply primary data, leading LCA datasets and regional production data to high impact processes, technologies and supply chains. This offers a very efficient approach to identifying, benchmarking and managing resource dependency and environmental impacts across entire product or brand portfolios.
A key benefit of our approach is that we provide results in financial terms. This enables you compare the relative scale of environmental impacts across products ranges, identify net benefits, plan for resource constraints and environmental costs, and integrate sustainability metrics within everyday product design and development.
We measure environmental impacts such as carbon, water, waste and pollutants, as well as the use of natural resources such as land and commodities to help you manage risk and build green product credentials that are based on hard evidence.
