Is your organisation ready to get a clearer view of the environmental impact of its products, services and systems?

Now more than ever, LCA is an invaluable tool for companies looking to achieve their sustainability goals. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) has emerged as an essential and widely recognised science-based framework for better understanding the environmental impacts of products, services and systems. The growth of LCA coincides with a surge of legislation across the globe, designed to improve compliance, efficiency and management of products.

“The LCA methodology, particularly, plays a significant role in reducing the risk of greenwashing. It enables accurate and effective strategy formulation for enhancing environmental performance. Grounded in the ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 standards, which outline its principles and criteria, LCA allows for the quantification of potential environmental impacts of a product, process, or service over its entire life cycle using a 'cradle-to-grave' approach.” Matteo Simonetto, Sustainability Services Manager Read Matteo’s blog post to find out how Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) can assess and reduce your business’ environmental impact: http://spkl.io/60464Ihho #TSUK #LCA #blogpost

We often hear businesses talking about the life cycle of their products - from manufacturing, use to disposal. But why are LCA's so important? A Life Cycle Analysis is essential in order to discover the environmental impact of your product or service. LCA's helps identify the eco-friendly potential your product has in order to improve its design in the future, as well as for consumers to be able to compare the environmental impact between two different products. But it isn't just customers and the environment that benefit from Life Cycle Analysis … Did you know that, the United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) estimates that integrating LCA into supply chain management can result in a reduction of environmental impacts by up to 50% in certain industries. Moreover, a report by the World Resources Institute suggests that businesses that undertake an LCA can achieve a cost reduction of up to 10% through improved resource efficiency and waste reduction. So, should your company consider LCA? Absolutely! If your company is looking to: - Compare the environmental impact of several products with the same function - Provide legislators with data for the creation of environmental regulations; Adopt eco-design products - Improve the environmental performance of an existing product Greenly can help you!

In today's world, environmental sustainability is more important than ever. Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) is a comprehensive method to evaluate and reduce the environmental impact of products, processes, or services across their entire lifecycle. By adopting LCA, businesses can optimize resource use, comply with environmental regulations, and identify opportunities to reduce waste and costs. Let's learn about the steps from defining goals to interpretation.

🌱 Sustainability ISO standards! As businesses increasingly prioritize environmental responsibility, understanding and implementing these standards are key to driving positive change. From ISO 14001 for environmental management systems to ISO 50001 for energy management, these frameworks provide invaluable guidance for reducing carbon footprint, improving resource efficiency, and enhancing overall sustainability performance. Let's join hands in embracing these standards to build a greener, more sustainable future for all. #Sustainability #ISOStandards #EnvironmentalManagement #EnergyManagement 🌍💡

picture itself is explaining each methodology. Well written #LCA #sustainability

It's a great image to represent SYSTEM BOUNDARIES, not a METHODOLOGY of LCA, do not confuse them. As a researcher in LCA, I follow the ISO 14040 and 14044 standards, which define the guidelines of the concepts around what a methodology is and the definitions of study boundaries.
