LCA (Detailed)
Review-grade
A full life cycle assessment (LCA) to ISO 14040 and 14044, covering the impact categories that matter for your product, built on your own data and written to survive scrutiny from outside.
What you get
- A full report that meets the standard we agreed at the start
- The inventory model, handed over to you
- Results for every category, each with how confident we are in it
- We run the independent review and answer its questions, where that is in scope
Standards
ISO 14040 and 14044, EN 15804 (EPD), EU Product Environmental Footprint, and applicable PCRs. We can align a study to other ISO standards on request. Just ask.
Common questions
When do you need a full LCA rather than a screening study?
When the result has to stand up outside your company: an EPD, a public comparison with a competitor, a tender that asks for a reviewed study, or a design decision big enough that a rough answer will not do.
Do I need an LCA to get an EPD?
Yes. An EPD is built on an LCA done to EN 15804 and the product category rules for your product. We build the LCA and take it through review; the EPD itself is verified and published through an EPD programme operator.
