Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a systematic methodology used to evaluate the environmental impacts of a product throughout its entire life cycle, from raw material extraction to production, use, and disposal. This comprehensive analysis helps identify opportunities for improvement in sustainability and resource efficiency, guiding designers and manufacturers in making informed decisions. By quantifying the environmental effects associated with each stage, LCA supports the development of innovative products that minimize ecological footprints and enhance overall product stewardship.
