Overview
Our service offers an AI-driven Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) to evaluate the sustainability of your food processing operations, utilising a combination of automated data collection and advanced analytics. By leveraging over 60 pilot-scale food processing technologies—ranging from traditional to cutting-edge methods—we quantify energy use, emissions, and resource efficiency. These insights enable companies to fine-tune ingredients, processing conditions, and operational settings to minimise their environmental impact while maintaining product quality and efficiency.
