SUPRIMLCIA for primary raw materials

CHALLENGEReliable datasets and adequate assessment methodologies are required to assure and assess the sustainability of raw materials’ supply. To date, however, such methodologies do not exist

SOLUTION

To develop an efficient, objective and robust assessment tool to meet the societal demands of sustainable resource use and to enhance the image of the (European) Primary Production Sector (and consequently of other economic sectors)

IMPACTEnable decision-makers at site, company, reqional and national level to correctly identify and assess existing and potential impacts and prioritize remedial actions. Improved transparency and trust in the raw materials sector
