Sustainable products are now essential on a planet with 7 billion citizens

PE INTERNATIONAL launches GaBi 5, software which guarantees sustainability optimisation in every manufactured product for us, our children and theirs

GaBi 5 makes it easy for your business to carry out Life Cycle Assessments (LCA). It also enables you to deliver more sustainable yet price-competitive products to match your customers expectations and become more resource efficient in a world of price rises and legislative obligations. GaBi 5 even helps your business to cut costs and make your production and supply chains more efficient.

 

So what does GaBi 5 do?


GaBi 5 models every element of a product or system from a life cycle perspective, equipping businesses to make the best informed decisions on the manufacture and lifecycle of any manufactured product, everything from a hand-held mobile phone to a match-stick to an airport. It also provides an easily accessible content database detailing the energy and environmental impact of sourcing and refining every raw or processed element of a manufactured item. In addition, it looks at the impact on the environment and presents alternative options for manufacturing, distribution, recyclability, pollution and sustainability.

 

GaBi 5 provides the delivery of the 'sustainable dream'


Michael Betz, CEO of PE INTERNATIONAL, states: “GaBi 5 and Databases provide the delivery of the ‘sustainability dream’ in an increasingly populous and polluted world. It allows easy access to the quality of data essential in making key strategic sustainability decisions and offers users the capabilities to communicate substantiated information externally. Moreover, GaBi 5 is the essential tool for meeting the escalating demands from customers and regulators for improved environmental performance and greater transparency of sustainability. By evaluating new products and solutions based on environmental benefits and cost implications, companies can develop well conceived portfolios that drive revenue growth, integrate sustainability into the product development process and, most importantly, tread gently on our home planet.”
