Promoting sustainable design through Life Cycle Assessment
A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) gives you the full picture of the environmental impact product and its packaging. By understanding the energy consumption, emissions, and resources associated with each stage of a product''s life cycle, you can make informed decisions to minimise your environmental footprint. Timothy Grant will explain how LCA provides provide quantification of impacts and metrics to inform sustainability decision making, from the micro level of design and material selection through to the macro level of policy making. He will highlight why the packaging industry needs to adopt a more data-driven approach and how LCA can help find a balance between functionality and sustainability.
