Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a systematic, science-based methodology used to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with every stage of a product’s life cycle—from raw material extraction, manufacturing, and distribution, through use, to end-of-life disposal or recycling. Governed by internationally recognized ISO standards 14040 and 14044, LCA provides a robust foundation for informed decision-making in sustainable product design, responsible procurement, and comprehensive carbon management strategies.
From an assurance perspective, LCA is indispensable for verifying that environmental claims are credible, transparent, and compliant with leading global standards. An independently assured LCA enhances your sustainability reporting under frameworks such as CDP, GRI, and SBTi, and supports the development of third-party verified declarations like Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and Product Carbon Footprints (PCFs).
By leveraging LCA, organizations can identify critical hotspots for impact reduction, optimize resource efficiency, and align their operations with ambitious net zero and circular economy objectives, thereby strengthening their overall environmental stewardship.
