The Challenge

Humanscale's LCA and EPD workflows were manual and resource-intensive, and its complex multi-component product assemblies made modeling and procurement difficult to scale. Meeting certifications like BIFMA Level and the Living Product Challenge meant navigating strict verification standards and multiple Product Category Rules at once.

The Solution

CarbonBright's AI-powered platform let Humanscale scale cradle-to-grave LCAs and EPD generation across SKUs, producing audit-ready reports aligned with BIFMA Level, the Living Product Challenge, and multiple PCRs — while surfacing component-level environmental hotspots to guide sourcing and design decisions.

The Results
  • Aligned with the latest BIFMA PCR requirements
  • Built a scalable framework for generating EPDs by product category
  • Improved ability to meet customer EPD requests
  • Component-level insights informing material and sourcing decisions
This is going to radically reduce the time we spend doing LCAs and help us focus on driving change.
