Oxiteno uses the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to support the development of more sustainable solutions by quantifying the environmental impacts of our products. Understanding the Life Cycle from the extraction of its raw materials through processing, use, and disposal will help identify at which stage of the process the environmental impacts are more intense and propose modifications to improve them.
The company has also developed its own methodology for Sustainable Product Portfolio Management to identify the degree of sustainability of the portfolio by managing or even discontinuing products that do not comply with predetermined minimum requirements.
