LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT

LCIE HELPS YOU IN THE REALIZATION OF YOUR LCA

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a method of assessing the environmental impacts of a product or service. This method is quantitative, multi-criteria, multi-step and is based on the functionality of the product or services.

All stages of the life cycle (raw material extraction, manufacturing, distribution, installation, use and end of life) are taken into account in the assessment of impacts.

The Life Cycle Assessment methodology, standardized internationally by ISO 14040 and ISO 14044, follows four main steps:

Definition of the objectives and scope of the study
Inventory and inventory analysis
Environmental impact assessment
Results interpretation

This method is ideal for controlling the environmental footprint of products and services.
