An LCA helps to balance the environmental impact of a product and shows companies where energy and emissions can be saved. In a further step towards more sustainability, HOFFMANN MINERAL has therefore had an LCA prepared for the Aktifit AM product by TÜV Rheinland in accordance with ISO standards 14040:2021 and 14044:2021. “Aktifit AM represents the entire value chain in our company and is thus an ideal starting point for deriving possible courses of action for this product and later for other products as well,” explains Dr. Mikhail Meilikhov, Member of the Management Board for R&D and Risk Management at HOFFMANN MINERAL.
The LCA for Aktifit AM provides a detailed and granular overview of each phase of its life cycle in terms of energy use and emissions, and shows how much energy is consumed in total for individual production steps and packaging.
