The Environmental Impact analyser
Reducing embodied carbon through effective supply chain management
Forum for the Future and AkzoNobel have developed the Environmental Impact
Analyser (EIA) as a tool to help businesses develop more sustainable products, and it has
already been used to help AkzoNobel launch the Dulux Trade Ecosure Range. We have
now also used the EIA to reduce the impact of our Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt White.
The EIA assesses each stage in the life cycle of a product, from the extraction of its raw
materials through manufacture right up to the point where it leaves the factory. It allows
businesses to compare an existing product against a proposed new one and quantify the
change in carbon, water and waste.
A key to the success of the EIA is that its method is rigorous enough to be reliable but
streamlined enough to be useable. It gives percentage savings compared to a specific
baseline, not an absolute figure. A detailed life cycle analysis or carbon footprint would
require a much larger investment of time and money than is often feasible, and the result
would still be dependent on assumptions and conditions.

• The resulting finish maximises the impression of space – giving
the room an improved ambience and appearance, whilst
helping to reduce light energy.

The Landfill Directive is helping to bring about a change in the way we dispose of waste in this country.It aims to reduce the pollution potential from land
filled waste that can impact on surface water, groundwater, soil, air, and also contribute to climate change.
In England and Wales the directive is applied under the Landfill (England and Wales) Regulations 2002 and must be fully implemented by July 2009.
The directive sets demanding targets to reduce the amount of biodegradable municipal land filled waste.
