Calculation methodology forms the basis of Biocode
Life cycle assessment (LCA) and GHG emission calculation are constantly evolving methodologies for calculating the environmental impacts, with numerous standards and guidelines to follow. Biocode has them built-in to the calculator so they are ready for you to use!
Science-based, credible and transparent calculations
You don’t need to be an LCA or climate expert to use Biocode – we take care of the science, you focus on understanding your own activities. Biocode is built on scientific sources, approved databases, international standards and guidelines. This foundation ensures that your calculations are reliable and transparent.
