Life Cycle Analysis / product carbon footprint
To understand and reduce the environmental impact of our solutions, we perform Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) and calculate product carbon footprints.
These analyses allow us to:
- Evaluate the environmental impact of our products throughout their entire life cycle—from raw material sourcing to end-of-life
- Identify key areas for improvement and implement strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Provide transparent and reliable data to our clients, supporting their sustainability goals and compliance with international standards
Our commitment: Science-based decisions for a lower carbon future.
Packaging Weight & Reuse strategies matter
A study by Yann Bouchery (Full Professor in Operations Management & Logistics at KEDGE Business School and PhD in Industrial Engineering) shows how lightweight, reusable packaging and smart repositioning strategies can reduce emissions in pharma logistics.
Key findings :
- Lightweight packaging = lower emissions
- Reusable containers outperform single-use
- Maritime repositioning cuts CO₂ up to 48x vs air transport
Why it matters :
- Packaging weight is a major driver of carbon emissions
- EMBALL’ISO solutions rank among the most efficient thanks to optimized weight and foldable design—helping pharma companies meet sustainability goals

Helping Clients Measure and Reduce CO₂ Emissions
We empower our clients to track and reduce their carbon footprint.
By using EMBALL’ISO lightweight, flat-packable solutions and our complimentary turnkey Reuse & Reverse Logistics service, clients benefit from significant CO₂ savings.
We provide regular, transparent CO₂ savings data, enabling them to quantify the emissions reductions achieved and demonstrate progress toward sustainability goals.
Here is an example of a three-year project with a customer.
