A product portfolio analysis is a first step to guide your company towards a more sustainable product portfolio and reducing your product and company footprint. Life Cycle Assessment can be utilized to conduct a full product portfolio analysis of a manufacturing site. Use Ecochain to assess the environmental impacts of different products across their entire life cycle or in different scenarios.
No more inefficient one-by-one footprint calculations, from now on you’re making 100’s of LCAs at once. Safe time by using our unique Activity-Based Footprinting (ABF) approach. It allows production facilities to assess the impact of an entire product portfolio.
Achieve cost-effiency in LCA creation and verification. Creating LCAs in bulk for all the products in your portfolio allows for mass verification at once. This enables cost savings per individual LCA and EPD – including the verification of your results.
Deep dive into entire product portfolio. Compare products per product or per total produced amount, view your LCA results ‘cradle-to-gate’ or ‘cradle-to-grave’. It does not matter if you produce 100 or 1.000 products, assess them all and find out how to optimize your footprints.
Via different environmental databases, access comprehensive data on materials, including extraction, processing, transportation, and disposal. Compare the results and identify potential new materials with a lower carbon footprint, less water use, higher recyclability, and reduced toxicity.
With a hotspot analysis you can assess the environmental impacts of different suppliers, components and manufacturing processes involved in the production of your product. Consider factors relevant for your specific case and industry like: energy consumption, water usage, waste generation, and emissions.
View results on a supply chain, company, processes, product and material level. Identify high-impact products and prioritize your R&D initiatives to products where it truly matters.
