LCA & EPD WORKSHOP

Are you a manufacturer looking to gain a deeper understanding of environmental metrics?
Join us for an in-depth workshop on Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and Environmental Product Declarations (EPD), tailored specifically for lighting products.

  • What is a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)?
    Get a clear understanding of what an LCA is, how it is calculated, and why it is essential for assessing the environmental impact of products. The importance of product specific rules, and the role of the luminaire specific PSR-0014 is covered in detail
  • What is an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)?
    Learn the step-by-step process of generating an EPD for your products. This will include how to navigate EPD standards, methodologies, and specific requirements for the lighting industry.
  • Managing Environmental Data
    Discover the best practices for managing and organizing the data required to produce accurate LCAs and EPDs. You will learn about the type of data required for environmental metrics, such that you can best prepare your data for environmental metrics.

THE DETAILS

Roundtable environment for a maximum of 12 delegates; giving the opportunity for full interaction, feedback, and questions for each topic.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

This workshop will equip you with the knowledge and tools needed to meet growing environmental regulations and customer demands for transparency in product sustainability.

FEEDBACK FROM WORKSHOP ATTENDEES

“The workshop was hugely beneficial and has influenced LightGraphix’s strategy on EPDs. The group size was kept small enough that we could discuss the subject informally but big enough to provide a number of different views. It was interesting to meet peers from all different areas of the industry that are interested on accelerating this subject. Max did a fantastic job explaining the subject, gauging the current knowledge of the room just right and making sure all our questions were answered. The workshop has enabled me to write up the options and next steps for LightGraphix and have put them into our strategy for the coming few years.”
Simon Lyon, Managing Director, LightGraphix

“It was incredibly valuable to discuss LCA/EPDs with other members of the lighting community. As this topic becomes increasingly important, it was great to explore how these tools can be effectively utilised.”
Gregory Richardson, Design Manager, Light Projects
