Carbon footprint embedded LCA

What is LCA?

LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) is a comprehensive analysis of the life cycle assessment that determines the environmental impact of a building or product at every stage of its existence – from raw material extraction, through production, usage, to its demolition and disposal.

LCA is based on international standards such as ISO 14040 and EN 15978, and provides specific data on CO₂ emissions, energy, water, and resource consumption.

This analysis is a key element in decision-making related to designing more sustainable buildings and their certification in systems like BREEAM and LEED.

Expert Opinion

LCA analysis allows for a comprehensive understanding of the environmental impact of buildings, which becomes crucial in the context of growing regulatory requirements and market expectations. Thanks to it:

  • Owners and tenants can identify and eliminate the most environmentally burdensome elements.
  • Banks and financial institutions receive solid data on the decarbonization potential of investments, which is important in the context of real estate financing.

LCA analysis increases the value of a building on the market, making it more attractive to investors by ensuring compliance with sustainable development goals.

LCA not only supports the management of greenhouse gas emissions throughout the building’s life cycle but also provides information on the efficiency of the materials and technologies used, facilitating optimization at the design and utilization stages.
