LCA and eco-design • Kapstan

Concrete actions to make your products more sustainable

At Kapstan, we are convinced that any product can become more sustainable while maintaining its performance, thanks to an adapted, rigorous and innovative approach.

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is an essential tool for understanding the environmental impacts of a product or service, from design through to end-of-life. It helps guide decisions towards eco-design—that is, the design of products and services that last longer, consume fewer resources, and generate less environmental impact.

Why choose our support?

Expertise in the field, far beyond the screen

LCA has been part of our daily routine since the very beginning. Our experience has been built up both in the office and in the field, thanks to numerous factory audits that have enabled us to understand processes as closely as possible.

Our expertise enables us to work closely with institutions such as ADEME, enriching their work with our practical feedback.
Expert knowledge of current regulations

Obtain certified documents (FDES, PEP) and meet the requirements of the AGEC law or ISO standards.

Any questions?

Our missions are aimed at companies in all sectors, whether SMEs, ETIs or large groups, wishing to improve their environmental footprint while innovating.

The duration of an assignment varies from 2 to 6 months, depending on the complexity of the product and the availability of data. We adapt the schedule to your constraints.

To help you get your project off the ground, you can benefit from public and private assistance, covering up to 50% of costs. Among these schemes, Bpifrance’s Diag Décarbon’Action is an excellent opportunity. It enables companies to finance part of their environmental diagnostics, including eco-design initiatives.

We can help you identify these financing solutions, simplify the administrative procedures and maximize your chances of eligibility.

Whether you are in industry, agri-food, mobility, textiles, construction or technology, our expertise is tailored to your specific needs. We offer solutions tailored to your specific challenges. Our aim: to make sustainability a performance driver, whatever your field of activity.

We offer certifications and declarations guaranteeing the transparency and environmental compliance of your products:

FDES (Fiche de déclaration environnementale et sanitaire): Environmental impact of materials for the construction sector, in compliance with French requirements.
PEP (Product Environmental Passport): Declaration of the environmental impact of products in sectors such as electronics and textiles.
EPD (Environmental Product Declarations): European declaration of environmental impacts in the construction sector.
ISO 14067: Precise measurement of the carbon footprint of products over their entire life cycle.
