Case Study: 3A Composites achieves portfolio-wide LCA insights with Ecochain

3A Composites advances net-zero by 2035 with Ecochain

3A Composites, a producer of materials like plastic sheets and foam boards, faced a growing demand from its customers for environmental data, particularly regarding climate change impacts. To address this, they partnered with vendor Ecochain to conduct a comprehensive, portfolio-wide Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) using Ecochain's Helix software, aiming to provide solid global warming impact information for their main products.

Ecochain specialists first demonstrated their bulk-LCA capabilities with a pilot project, which 3A Composites' internal team then replicated for their other factories. The solution integrated with the company's existing environmental management systems for efficient data collection and will allow for annual updates. As a result, 3A Composites can now effectively demonstrate progress in reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions, aligning with their net-zero goal for 2035, and has identified raw materials as a key impact hotspot for future improvements.
