Pro Carton Event Vienna

Our next generation understanding of sustainable products has been appreciated at the Pro Carton event in Vienna.
Summary of the talk.

Environmental Product Declaration

Consumers are paying more and more attention to the environmental performance of products. Especially in the B2B market Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) based on Life Cycle Assessment results are an excellent tool to communicate the environmental performance.

How does the environmental performance of your product look like?

Did you know that in France EPD will be mandatory by 2011 for all consumer products?

Three major crises we face today

We do face three major crises today. These are:

1. Global warming – climate change
2. Energy crises including Peak Oil
3. Food crises

All the three crises are interrelated. Question are today:

• How can a company prepare and adapt to the challenges of the future?
• How do the crises and their consequences effect the business model?
• What to do in order to stay competitive and successful on the market?

Answers to these and other questions we develop for our customers using the Sustainability Wheel based on our experience in developing sustainable technical solutions.
