About us
SimaPro is life cycle assessment software that helps organizations measure and analyze environmental impacts across product life cycles. Built on scientific methods and extensive datasets, it delivers transparent insights trusted by industry and academia worldwide.
Our story
Trusted insights since 1990
SimaPro started with a simple question: how can we measure environmental impact? In 1990, Mark Goedkoop — eco-designer and founder of SimaPro — set out to make life cycle assessment easier to apply in practice. In collaboration with CML Leiden, the first version of SimaPro was developed to bring scientific methods into everyday decision-making.
Today, SimaPro is used by industry and academia in more than 90 countries to model supply chains, identify environmental hotspots, and support product development, sustainability strategy, and reporting. Built on extensive datasets and established impact assessment methods, it enables transparent, science-based insights at any scale.
With over 35 years of development, SimaPro is a cornerstone of the global LCA community and has been part of the One Click LCA group since 2025. While SimaPro focuses on software innovation, PRé Sustainability remains the dedicated brand for our expert consulting services.
We believe better decisions start with transparent, science-based insights.
We turn life cycle data into insights you can act on.
