Taking a Best Practice Industry Approach to Packaging LCAs with IGD

Anthesis recently supported IGD on publishing a best practice guide for packaging lifecycle assessment (LCA) for the food and consumer goods industry, with the aim of helping the industry undertake packaging LCAs in a standardised way and enable organisations to make informed decisions to reduce the environmental impacts of their packaging.

Anthesis and IGD looked at:

• IGD’s sustainable packaging ambition for the industry
• The link between LCAs and packaging
• The purpose of the guide and how best to use it
• How it will help the industry to reduce the environmental impacts of packaging
