Symetri, a leading provider of digital Building Information Modelling (BIM), product design and lifecycle solutions in Europe and USA, today announced a new partnership with One Click LCA, the world’s leading construction Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) software provider.
Building LCA (Lifecycle Assessment) is a science-based methodology for quantifying the lifetime environmental impacts of a building and One Click LCA makes the assessment easy by embedding the methodology into the tool. One Click LCA helps to measure and reduce the environmental impacts of buildings, achieve green building certifications, and comply with regulations that are a mandatory part of planning in many countries.
The environmental targets of the construction industry also extend to the products used to build. Thus, manufacturers have begun to meet the increasing need to produce Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) to reliably quantify and communicate the lifetime environmental impact of a product. One Click LCA's Product LCA and EPD solution provides manufacturers with an easy solution to produce 3rd party verified EPDs based on European and international Standards.
“Symetri strongly believes that leading edge technology solutions can bring large value related to sustainability for the construction and manufacturing industries. This partnership with One Click LCA is an important step and puts us in an even better position to provide our customers with solutions that enable them to realise their decarbonisation goals. In addition to a global technology reseller agreement, this agreement includes a Technology Partnership which allows Symetri to use One Click LCA’s database as part of Symetri Technology with the aim of enabling our customers to make carbon-smart material selections for both buildings and building products. We are very excited to bring these solutions to our customers with the clear ambition to enable more people to work smarter and more sustainably.” Mikko Viertola, CTO, Symetri Group
“One Click LCA’s mission is to power the makers of a zero-carbon future and addressing the lifecycle impact of buildings and materials is at the heart of what we do. Decarbonizing construction requires a whole life carbon approach across the value chain. Through our partnership with Symetri we make our LCA offering available for a larger number of companies and with Symetri’s extensive sales and consultancy team, we ensure the customers’ success to achieve a carbon free future. This partnership is a remarkable step ahead to accelerate the decarbonization of the construction and manufacturing industries.,” Panu Pasanen, CEO, One Click LCA
