Identification of reduction potentials: robust scenarios & hotspot analyses

Strengthening Circular Economy: assessment of resource use & recyclability

Clear value for stakeholders: reliable data for communication & strategy

Our methods

Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) based on ISO 14067, Greenhouse Gas Protocol Product Standard, Pathfinder Framework (PACT) and industry standards such as Together for Sustainability (TfS), Catena-X

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) according to ISO 14040/44

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) in line with EN 15804 & ISO 14025

Development of training concepts and methodological documentation to internalize assessment approaches

Derivation of internal guidelines for anchoring knowledge within your organization

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA):
Capture environmental impacts holistically. Guide decisions strategically.

Holistic analysis of the environmental impact of your products

LCA is the most comprehensive approach to assess the environmental impacts of products. It goes beyond greenhouse gas potential to include effects on soil, water bodies and human health – across all phases of the product life cycle, from raw material extraction and production to use and disposal. We also support you in certification processes with independent third parties.

Your benefits

Holistic environmental assessment based on ISO 14040/44

Robust decision-making foundation for product development, design, material selection and process optimization

Early preparation for regulatory requirements (e.g. Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, EU Deforestation Regulation)

Strengthened sustainability communication through reliable and certifiable data

Our approach

Joint definition of project objective with all relevant stakeholders (e.g. product optimization, customer request, external communication)

Kick-off workshop to introduce the methodology and project structure

Structured support for data collection across all life cycle phases using tailored templates

Accounting based on recognized standards using LCA software

Presentation & interpretation of results in a final session (optional with external verification)

Rely on robust life cycle assessments to shape more sustainable products with long-term impact.

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD):
Transparent environmental performance, certified and internationally recognized.

Standardized environmental impact of your products

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) presents the environmental impacts of a product across the entire life cycle in a transparent and comparable way. It is based on internationally recognized standards such as EN 15804 and ISO 14025, is reviewed and certified by independent third parties.

Your benefits

Certified transparency based on ISO 14025 and EN 15804, providing an objective overview of your products’ environmental impacts

Competitive advantage through credibility and market acceptance

Compliance with regulatory requirements for international environmental standards

Strengthened brand and customer loyalty through credible sustainability communication

Our approach

Definition of objective and selection of the relevant Product Category Rule (PCR; e.g. construction, packaging, chemicals, etc.)

Kick-off workshop to define normative requirements

Execution of the life cycle assessment using LCA software as the basis for the EPD

Creation of EPD documentation

Support throughout the review and certification process by independent third parties

Communicate your environmental impact with confidence – an EPD is your strong proof of performance.
