With our expertise in life cycle assessment (LCA), we support your academic or R&D projects focused on high-performing products and processes. We help you present the environmental benefits of your products or processes as scientifically grounded arguments.
Defined under ISO 14040–44 standards, life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method developed to generate the most scientific information on environmental impacts. Key life cycle stages evaluated in LCA studies include raw material sourcing, transportation, production, use, and disposal. Depending on the objective of the study, these stages can be divided into further sub-cycles. Important environmental indicators calculated through LCA include: carbon footprint, ozone depletion, acidification, eutrophication, photochemical oxidation, resource use, energy consumption, water use, and circularity metrics.
Through comparative LCA studies, we evaluate your products or processes against alternatives with the same function in terms of environmental impacts, helping you highlight those with superior environmental performance.
Comparative LCA Process
We define meaningful system boundaries, collect accurate data, and conduct comprehensive modeling to calculate environmental impacts. Our LCA studies are documented according to international standards and delivered in formats suitable for sharing with clients, investors, and other stakeholders.
01 We begin with a project kick-off meeting to understand the production process of the products involved and define the necessary data.
02 Using the data collection form we provide, we model your production processes.
03 Based on the modeling results, we prepare your LCA report in line with international standards.
04 Alongside the technical report, we also provide an executive summary—upon request—in a format suitable for stakeholders, completing the LCA process.
