Did you know that ReFlow is becoming one of the leading
life cycle assessment consultancies?
We make decarbonizing and reducing your product's
emissions easy and accessible.
Learn more about what we do, and how we do it.
We specialize in product LCAs and our strength lies here. We have two main offerings on a product LCA level:
We provide high-level assessments focusing on the main contributors to climate gas emissions. This can be used as a starting point for further analysis, or to indicate where early reductions can be made.
Our consultancy team of Environmental Engineers perform third party assurance on LCAs as well as EPDs
Make informed decisions by comparing the results of your product LCAs with our consultancy services and platform.
We offer Environmental Product Declarations as part of our consultancy services.
Life Cycle Assessment is the method of quantifying the environmental impact of a product or a process in its entire life cycle. The method is defined by the ISO standards 14040 & 14044.

different types of reporting
Contact usTypically, data is gathered using templates. Collecting automated data can be done through source systems. The availability of data, the amount of time available for data collection, the significance of the data point, and the scope of the LCA all influence the level of detail (i.e., "black box" vs. individual process steps).
Bills of materials/recipes, PLM software, power bills, meter readings, procurement records, waste inventories, emissions permit reports, equipment specifications, and measurements taken along production lines are all examples of primary data sources.
LCA databases, technical literature, journal articles, conference presentations, patents, and other sources are examples of secondary data sources.
The completeness and accuracy of all obtained data have to be ensured, for example by assessments of mass balance, emission profile, energy intensity, water balance, and similar.
An LCA performed by a consultancy usually takes three months – depending on the goal and scope of the project.
Which product(s) do you wish to assess? How many suppliers do you have? How much input is there in your product (materials, energy use, transportation, disposed materials)?
These are the main things that affect the length and price of an LCA.
The cost depends on the goal and scope of the project, as explained above. With this knowledge, we can estimate the amount of hours and set a deadline for the LCA project.
Contact us, and we’ll be happy to help you scope an offer.
We base our Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) on a scientific approach.
An LCA by ReFlow is based on ISO standards 14040 & 14044, which are internationally accepted standards for how LCAs are made.
Additionally, our impact assessments are based on ReCiPe 2016 v1.1 Hierarchist midpoint methodology.

According to the Greenhouse Gas Protocol most organizations today look at emissions from value chains as scope 1, 2 & 3.
Very briefly:
Most companies today are not accounting for their scope 3. Using an LCA not only helps get a concrete number on your emissions but also gives you an overview of your value chain’s environmental impact.
Performing an LCA gets you ahead of the curve!
Our lifecycle-based environmental quantification system makes it easy to calculate, document, and share environmental performance data of products. We remove the complexity around LCA-based calculations and make it possible for users with just basic product knowledge to make advanced calculations.
