Alleima is dedicated to transparency and actively reports its LCA results and sustainability efforts to strengthen trust among customers and stakeholders. By collaborating with customers and implementing sustainable solutions, we contribute to make greener choices for the industry.
We use production data from our own operations and supplier data for the raw materials that we purchase, wherever possible. This ensures a reliable and transparent analysis, while simultaneously reducing the carbon footprint of our products.
What is Life Cycle Assessment?
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method for quantifying the environmental impact of products and identifying hotspots throughout the life cycle.
This includes all stages – from raw material extraction to product commercialization.
It is a globally accepted framework and methodology for quantification
of carbon footprints.
Cradle-to-gate
Our focus is calculating the carbon footprint per product, over a Cradle-to-Gate lifecycle.
The carbon footprint is calculated over the Cradle-to-Gate lifecycle, covering the greenhouse gas emissions from raw material extraction, materials processing and product manufacturing. The Cradle-to-Gate approach enables customers of Alleima to make conscious decisions and to calculate their products' carbon footprint. By providing this information, we are supporting customers to reach their environmental targets.
