LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT (LCA) SERVICES As per ISO 14040/44 Standards.
In today’s competitive and environmentally conscious world, organizations must assess and minimize their environmental impact. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a scientifically proven methodology that evaluates the environmental footprint of a product, process, or service throughout its entire life cycle—from raw
material extraction to final disposal. By adopting LCA, businesses can make informed decisions that drive sustainability, enhance efficiency, and align with global environmental standards.
What is Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)?
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a globally recognized methodology for evaluating the environmental impact of a product, process, or service throughout its entire life cycle—from raw material extraction to disposal.
