As the electronics industry faces mounting pressure to provide transparent, quantifiable environmental data, Claigan is presenting a new webinar on March 18th designed to be the most technically comprehensive session currently available on LCA, EPD, and PCR for electronics broken down in a way that you can understand.

Creating an LCA or EPD for your product can give you increased market access and provide a mechanism for demonstrating year-over-year improvements. Nobody wants to be shut out of a purchasing tender while their competitors gain the edge. And by 2028, all products sold to the NHS in the UK require specific carbon foot printing via the LCA process.

Moving past the high-level overviews that dominate the industry, this webinar is designed specifically for environmental engineers, sustainability officers, and product compliance managers who require a granular understanding of the mechanics behind life cycle assessments. Claigan has found that professionals in the electronics sector are tired of basic sustainability overviews; they need the hard math for complex regulatory frameworks. 

Claigan’s webinar will discuss the detailed difference between Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), and how they are tied together by Product Category Rules (PCR).

Key topics will include:

• Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
• Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
• Product Category Rules (PCR)
• PCR 2024-06 Electronic and electric equipment, and electronic components 
• Required stages
• How to create LCA information for components of your products
• Questions you need to answer to complete an LCA
• Where LCAs add value to tenders or are required
