life cycle assessment

The bio-based propanediol made using our unique Bio-PDO process is more sustainable at end-of-life—reducing global warming potential by 20% compared to chemically derived PDO.
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is the only standardized method for comparing the environmental footprint of bio-based materials vs. petroleum-derived products throughout the entire supply chain.
A life cycle assessment of the “cradle-to-gate” GWP for chemically derived PDO and bio-based PDO, shows that bio-based PDO is more sustainable—reducing GWP by 20%. |
