The power of dynamic LCA and EPD reports

June 27, 2024

EcoTracer revolutionizes the traditional approach to environmental documentation with our up-to-date LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) and EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) reporting system. This innovative service ensures that your sustainability reports are not only compliant with ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 standards but also remain dynamic and interactive, reflecting real-time data and improvements in your processes.

Dynamic, Live Document System

Unlike conventional static documents, EcoTracer’s LCA and EPD reports are hosted on a web platform, presented in a live PDF format that allows for continuous versioning and updates. This dynamic system means that as your data improves or as you make changes to your production processes, your environmental reports can be updated without the need for extensive manual revisions. Each version of an EPD can be archived on the platform, providing a history of updates and changes that can be accessed at any time. This approach ensures that your documents always reflect the most current data, making them more reliable and valuable to your customers.

Efficient Annual Updates

As each new year brings improvements in technology and processes, our system facilitates the effortless integration of these advancements into your existing reports. This means that what once required potentially months of work to revise and certify new versions of an LCA or EPD can now be done in seconds. The start of a new year or the introduction of new operational data no longer presents a logistical challenge but becomes an opportunity to demonstrate your ongoing commitment to sustainability.

Leveraging QR Codes for Customer Insights

A unique feature of our LCA and EPD reports is the integration of QR codes, which serve as gateways to the live versions of your documents. These QR codes not only make it easy for stakeholders to access the latest data but also turn each interaction into a data collection point. Our system tracks who scans the QR code, when, and from where, providing you with valuable analytics about the interest in your product’s sustainability. This data can help you understand which products are attracting the most attention and identify trends in consumer behavior regarding environmental concerns.
