Glimpact calculates the global environmental footprint of each product by aggregating results from evaluations across 16 impact categories (including CO2) following the PEF methodology, expressed in µPt (micro-points).
Glimpact allows you to visualize the categories that contribute the most to the product's global environmental footprint, such as climate change, water resource use, and fine particulate emissions.
Analyze the environmental impact at each stage of the product’s life cycle, from raw material production to end-of-life, to identify the most impactful stages.
Compare the environmental footprint of your products with that of representative products in their category to assess your positioning relative to the average.
Use the Sankey diagram to highlight the main contributions to the environmental footprint throughout the product’s life cycle, identifying the most impactful processes.
Consolidate different impact sources, such as the energy sources used during manufacturing, to precisely understand the origins of impacts and define suitable eco-design strategies.
Implement eco-design approaches by simulating different product scenarios. Visualize the impact of an eco-designed scenario and compare it with reference products to choose the best option and define a concrete action plan.
Glimpact uses the EuropeanUnion’s PEF (Product Environmental Footprint) method to analyze environmental impact across 16 categories, including climate change, air and water quality, and resource depletion.
Glimpact offers three usage modes: Autonomous (independent use after training), Consulting (Glimpact conducts the evaluation and analysis for you), and Collaborative (personalized support for data collection and analysis).
The PEF (ProductEnvironmental Footprint) method is a standardized methodology recognized by the European Union to measure the environmental footprint of products in a precise, comprehensive, and transparent manner.
Glimpact provides clear and interactive environmental labeling, compliant with the European Digital Product Passport requirements, ensuring full transparency on the global environmental footprint of your products.
Glimpact’s eco-design module helps integrate sustainable practices from the product design phase, using simulations to optimize environmental impact and reduce the global environmental footprint.
