Our range of life cycle assessments

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) & Product Environmental Footprint (PEF)

The basis: Do you want to know how high your product's CO₂ emissions are or how much water is used in the supply chain? We assess the ecological footprint of your product specifically according to your needs.

Hotspot analysis

Do you have an assessment outcome and want to know where discrepancies occur and in which life cycle phases there is potential for optimization? We would be happy to identify them for you.

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)

Do you want to make the positive results of your product's life cycle assessment available and advertise with them? We support you in publishing the results as a verified EPD.

EPDs are becoming mandatory across the EU!

Don't fall behind!

New regulations make product-specific EPDs increasingly important and sometimes even mandatory! The new Construction Products Ordinance (CPR) came into force on January 7,  2025. In future, this will require mandatory information on the CO₂ footprint in a digital product passport (DPP).

Construction Products Regulation (CPR)

The EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) sets rules for placing construction products on the market in the EU. In the new version of the regulation, which came into force on January 7, 2025, the reporting of the CO₂ footprint will incrementally became mandatory for all relevant products. If the required information is not available, the products may not be placed on the market.

Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR)

Among other things, digital product passports (DPP) are being introduced as part of ESPR. These make information about the sustainability and environmental impact of products (including the content of the CPR) digitally available and processable. The DPPs are to be introduced in 2026.
