What is Life cycle assessment (LCA)?

The life cycle assessment (LCA) shows the environmental impact of a product over its whole lifetime, from extracting raw materials
through operation to end of life. It is a method to quantify the environmental impact e.g. in tones CO2 equivalents of a product or a
system and it is done according to ISO standards (ISO 14040, 14044).

Why Life cycle assessment?

To ensure that the evolution in technology is indeed smarter and cleaner, and that customers are engaging with
climate-​conscious suppliers, life cycle assessment is crucial.
