Carbon Life Cycle Assessment Software
Sustainability is a Core Value in TOBIN and as part of our commitment to sustainability
we o昀昀er a specialist Carbon Life Cycle Assessment service to our clients.
In 2025 we further promoted and expanded
the use of the Carbon Life Cycle Assessment
software. This has been actioned, with the
company continuing to invest in the industryleading Carbon Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
software (OneClickLCA®) with the number
of projects on which it is being used ever
increasing.
Using this software, TOBIN can calculate the
carbon footprint of a design (expressed as
Global Warming Potential, in tCO2e) for any infrastructure project and at any project
stage from feasibility through to construction and end use. This software allows TOBIN
to produce Carbon Life Cycle Assessment Reports that compare a range of design
options in order to minimize carbon footprint through all phases of a project, from the
product stage, through construction and operation, to end of life/decommissioning.
Using this software, we can advise clients on the choice of materials and construction
methodologies to minimise embodied carbon.
This assists clients in meeting their carbon
reduction targets under the Climate Action Plan
and is of particular bene昀椀t to any project that is
publicly funded, where there is a requirement
under Green Public Procurement to demonstrate
carbon reduction measures.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is incorporated
into ISO14000 (as ISO 14040/14044), and the
software is fully compliant with the methodology for
Life Cycle Assessment set out in PAS2080 Carbon
Management in Buildings and Infrastructure. This
software draws on a worldwide database of over
150,000 construction products to estimate the
embodied carbon in a design, which is the carbon footprint (in tCO2e) of the product
stage (A1-3) and construction stage (A4-5) of a project.
