Unibloom Data · Automated LCA

Early access

A full life cycle assessment, from a plain description.

Describe your product or material in plain words. Automated LCA builds the full life cycle assessment (LCA), from growing and processing to transport, with reports aligned with ISO 14040. No LCA expert needed.

Automated LCA: ask for a life cycle assessment of a material from a given country

How it works

  1. Describe it in plain words.

    For example: soybean meal processed in Brazil, or crude soybean oil from Argentina with transport to a customer in Delhi.

  2. It checks before it calculates.

    Missing values and wrong units are caught first, and it asks you a follow-up question when something is missing.

  3. It builds the assessment.

    Using Unibloom's databases and life cycle calculations, across growing, processing and transport.

  4. You get the result, with sources.

    An emissions breakdown by stage, comparisons between options and a report aligned with ISO 14040.

Automated LCA: questions people ask

What is a life cycle assessment (LCA)?

A life cycle assessment adds up the emissions of a product across its life: growing or extracting the raw materials, processing, packaging and transport. Automated LCA builds one from a plain description of your product, with reports aligned with ISO 14040.

Do I need to be an LCA expert to use Automated LCA?

No. Traditional LCA tools are built for experts. With Automated LCA you describe the product in plain words; it checks your inputs, asks when something is missing and builds the assessment with Unibloom's databases and life cycle calculations.

How is Automated LCA different from a consultant's LCA study?

A consultant's LCA study is costly and can take weeks, often arriving after the decision is made. Automated LCA builds the assessment when you ask, so you can compare options while the decision is still open, and run several assessments side by side.

Is Automated LCA aligned with ISO standards?

Yes. Automated LCA follows the life cycle assessment approach of ISO 14040 and 14044 and produces reports aligned with ISO 14040. Every number shows its source, so you can answer an auditor's follow-up question.
