The eco-credentials of Kavalan are far superior to those of PVC banners.
On behalf of Taya, the renowned inspection and validation service SGS (formerly Société Générale de Surveillance) has completed Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) on the latest Kavalan range.
From its significantly lower carbon footprint and reduced water consumption to its impressive non-toxic biodegradable film, the results confirm what we already knew: the eco-credentials of Kavalan are far superior to those of PVC banners. And now, we have the numbers to prove it!
You can find more data of LCA from KAVALAN's solutions.
The goal of LCA is to not only create data but also to facilitate decisions.
The LCA process is part of the ISO 14000 series of internationally recognized standards for environmental management. It analyzes the environmental impact of a product from cradle to grave, combining historical data, test results, and scientific measurements to assess various environmental impacts, such as climate change, pollution, biodiversity decline, algae growth, and water consumption, among others.
The LCA is ideal for providing direct environmental comparisons between products, enabling customers to make purchasing decisions based not only on cost but also on environmental impact. The LCA impact assessment process.
- Upstream Activities (extraction, production, and packaging of raw materials)
- Core Activities (transportation, energy and water usage, and production)
- Downstream Activities (end-of-life activities, waste management, and disposal)
Upstream Activities
extraction, production and packaging of raw materials
Core Activities
transportation, energy and water usage, production, and distribution
Downstream Activities
end-of-life activities, waste management and disposal
All human activities have an impact on the environment, and the numerical evaluation provided by the LCA shows that we can no longer hide behind subjective assumptions or so-called professional opinions; the numbers don’t lie!
