Don’t fall behind on sustainable packaging, LCA and ecodesign developments.
Not all carbon is equal: separating biogenic and fossil emissions in packaging footprints
A tonne of CO2 from burning coal and a tonne released as a paper cup breaks down in landfill tell very different climate stories, yet many packaging footprints add them together as if they were the same.
Fossil carbon is a net new addition to the atmosphere that lingers for millennia. Biogenic carbon moves through the short, natural cycle. Treating biomass as automatically "carbon neutral" is a useful shortcut, but it hides real information, especially the carbon stored in products sent to landfill.
PIQET now reports the full family of climate change results, so you can see exactly where impacts arise.
Understanding marine litter and plastic leakage impacts in packaging LCAs
Most packaging LCAs tell you about climate change, water use and resource depletion. They don't tell you what happens when that packaging escapes the waste system entirely.

The evolution of sustainability assessment in packaging
Over the past two decades, sustainability assessment using rigorous scientific methodology, such as Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), has transformed from a niche, reactive exercise into a core component of packaging design and corporate sustainability strategies.
