Free download: Reducing the environmental impact of chemicals

Life cycle assessments (LCA) provide quantifiable insights on how products impact the environment from extraction through to disposal, enabling organisations to measure, monitor and improve performance in key impact areas. When seeking to deliver on those optimisations, however, organisations need to take measured, strategic, and effective actions, which requires careful consideration of the many options available for each element of the product value chain.

In the first part of this series, we looked at the value in conducting LCA for chemical producing organisations, providing guidance on how best to go about it. In the second instalment, we provide practical insights and guidance on how to reduce the environmental impacts of chemical products following a detailed lifecycle assessment. 

In this guide, we explore some of the many options available to the organisations producing chemical products when seeking to reduce environmental impacts, regulatory compliance risks, and drive innovative products and ingredients with sustainability at their core.
