Product Environmental Performance

Calculate the environmental impact of products or services to achieve your sustainability goals with expert advice from Ideal Expert Services (IES).

By measuring the environmental footprint of your products and services, you can explore potential actions to promote a positive impact on the environment.

These insights can be used to inform your sustainability strategy, stimulate innovative solutions, highlight potential cost savings, showcase your competitive advantages, and comply with regulatory and consumer demands.

The sustainability experts at IES can help you calculate, assess, and analyze as part of your organization’s sustainability mission, with a range of services including:

Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs)

A comprehensive LCA from IES uses primary data to deep dive into the environmental impact of your products or services.

This study can be used to develop Environmental Product Declarations (EPD). It can also help identify areas to reduce your overall environmental impacts.

Comparative LCA

This powerful tool helps you understand how a product’s environmental impacts compare to those of an equivalent product. A full LCA will be performed on two products to compare impacts.

Scoping/Screening LCA

This simplified assessment uses secondary data to review the environmental impacts of products and services. This can be useful when a rough estimate is needed to develop a new product or analyze an industry.

Material analysis

Using the results of an LCA, our experts can analyze and model any potential product or process changes that will reduce the environmental impacts.

Product carbon footprints

We’ll utilize established ISO standards and carbon footprint measures to calculate the carbon impacts of your products or services. We’ll also help you identify opportunities to reduce embedded carbon.

Environmental Product Declarations (EPD)

A powerful environmental analytics tool, EPDs summarize the comprehensive results of an LCA following the rules of ISO Standards and any specific Product Category Rule (PCR).

EPDs, primarily used in the building products industry, are fast becoming requirements for LEED® and government projects and are a major B2B sales tool.

We can create PCRs, perform LCAs, generate EPDs, and verify LCAs and EPDs
