Carrying Out Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)

The Fujitsu Group has made it obligatory to perform LCA for all its green products. Calculation standards have been formulated for each product family, and the Group efficiently evaluates the environmental burdens of its products using its own database(*1).

Performing LCA makes it possible to determine which parts of a product’s life cycle account for the greatest proportion of the environmental burden, so that environmentally-friendly products can be designed effectively. We also apply the expertise developed through our LCA activities to calculate the eco-efficiency factor, and are actively using this as a tool for communicating with our customers.
