At Avant-Garde Limited, we help your business identify where your company can save costs. Traditionally organisations focus on saving costs within their own four walls. However, using LCAs leads to even greater cost savings. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a technique to assess the total environmental impact of a product as well as its manufacturing process. It analyses the footprint during all stages of its lifetime. LCA is a sound investment as it leads to added value to your company in different ways.

There is a clear theme in the future of sustainability, and that theme is transparency. In today’s economy, integrating sustainability into products and processes is not enough.

There are many uses for LCA data, both internally and publicly. LCA is a core component of a sustainable product innovation program, assisting designers and engineers with improving the environmental performance of a product beginning with product inception. LCA data has been utilized by our clients to reduce environmental impacts and identify cost savings in their manufacturing plants. The holistic view of a product enabled by LCA empowers our clients to implement product stewardship in a meaningful way; and in doing so, foster a more sustainable business model.
