Your product’s carbon footprint
The demand for substantiated product data is growing rapidly. Customers increasingly expect transparency regarding CO₂ emissions, while companies must also respond to broader decarbonisation targets and reporting requirements such as the CSRD.
By calculating your product’s carbon footprint, you gain insight into where emissions arise throughout your value chain. This is an essential step in making your decarbonisation strategy tangible and supporting it with reliable data.
Our approach: accurate, pragmatic and comprehensive
At Encon, we carry out Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) in accordance with the applicable standards for your specific product.
Our approach combines:
- Accurate analysis of the product’s entire life cycle
- Efficient data collection, taking into account available internal capacity
- Support with audits and preparation for external verification
This ensures that your product data is reliable and immediately usable for sustainability certifications and customer communication.
If you wish to go beyond CO₂ alone, an LCA and EPD are the next logical steps. Together, they provide a comprehensive view of your product’s environmental impact and a strong foundation for external communication.

Product Carbon Footprint (PCF)
A Product Carbon Footprint allows you to map out the total greenhouse gas emissions of your product across its entire life cycle.
This is often the first step in product sustainability. You quickly gain insight into the largest sources of emissions, such as material production, transport or the use phase.
These insights help you to take targeted reduction measures and align your product with the climate objectives of your organisation and your customers.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
An LCA goes beyond CO₂ and examines the full environmental impact of your product.
A life cycle analysis identifies various impact categories and highlights where the greatest impact lies within your supply chain. This provides you with the necessary insight to make strategic decisions regarding your product development and supply chain.
In this way, you not only substantiate your sustainability narrative, but also actively drive improvement and innovation.
Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
An Environmental Product Declaration translates your LCA results into a standardised and verified document.
An EPD makes your product’s environmental impact transparent and comparable for external stakeholders. This is increasingly becoming a requirement in tenders and helps strengthen your position in the market.
It enables you to communicate in a consistent and reliable way, supported by validated data and aligned with expectations regarding EPD certification.
