Global consumers today care about more than price and quality—they’re increasingly asking:
Where did this product come from? How was it made? What impact does it have on the planet?
In the era of climate change, circular economy, and environmental responsibility, having an eco-friendly product is no longer a competitive edge—it’s a requirement to survive in international markets.
The Growing Demand: Transparency and Environmental Footprint Matter
Export markets—especially in Europe, North America, and East Asia—are tightening their requirements around sustainability. Terms like:
- Carbon footprint
- Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
- Green label
- Eco-certification
…are now common in procurement criteria, product declarations, and import policies.
…semakin sering muncul dalam dokumen tender, persyaratan buyer, dan kebijakan impor.
Green Claims Without Proof
Many businesses claim their products are “eco-friendly”, but lack scientific data or official certification to back it up. This leads to:
- Product rejection in export markets
- Lost opportunities in tenders and high-value retail
- Negative brand perception due to greenwashing
- Ineligibility for public green procurement or funding
Without verified environmental data and certification, a green label becomes just another marketing buzzword.
Green Label & Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) with SUCOFINDO
To meet global sustainability standards, businesses need to adopt verifiable, data-driven tools like:
1. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
A scientific method to evaluate the environmental impact of a product throughout its entire lifecycle—from raw materials to production, distribution, use, and end-of-life disposal.
LCA helps businesses:
- Identify environmental hotspots in their supply chain
- Reduce emissions, waste, and inefficiencies
- Communicate product transparency to regulators and buyers
2. Green Label or Eco-Certification
An official mark showing a product meets recognized sustainability standards, such as:
- Energy efficiency
- Use of renewable or recycled materials
- Low-carbon footprint
- Biodegradable or recyclable packaging
