PAS 2090-compliant product footprints for pharmaceuticals

Meet growing healthcare procurement requirements with standardized, audit-ready results across your product portfolio.

Why carbon footprint data matters in healthcare procurement now

Healthcare procurement is evolving. Across the UK and Europe, tenders increasingly require:

  • Product-level carbon footprint data
  • Comparable results across suppliers following standardized methodologies such as PAS 2090

These requirements reflect a broader shift from ambition to accountability.

If your capacity to provide such data is not supported or scalable, it can slow down decision-making and limit your ability to compete.

Getting this right means building a foundation of consistent, credible data so you can respond with confidence.

What the compliance pack delivers

Instead of building models from scratch, you get:

  • An LCA configurable model aligned with PAS 2090
  • Predefined system boundaries and datasets, connected to secondary data from the latest ecoinvent version
  • Documentation explaining the model structure and how to use it

You provide your product data. The model applies a consistent structure, helping ensure results are compliant, comparable, and defensible.

What you can achieve with the compliance pack

  • Respond to procurement requirements with confidence
    Generate standardized results aligned with PAS 2090 expectations.
  • Scale across products and batches
    Apply the same methodology across your portfolio.
  • Avoid rebuilding LCA models
    Skip months of setting up models.
  • Identify impact hotspots
    Understand the impact of APIs (active pharmaceutical ingredients), excipients, solvents, and energy consumption.

Why use this compliance pack

  • Skip the “blank canvas” problem
    No need to interpret PAS 2090 or design compliant models from scratch.
  • Ensure consistency across teams and products
    One standardized model avoids variation and rework.
  • Be ready for audits and customer scrutiny
    Transparent assumptions and documentation included.

How it works

  1. Start with the PAS 2090-aligned model
  2. Configure the provided model to match your product data including materials, energy use and process information
  3. Generate compliant results ready for procurement and reporting

Meet PAS 2090 requirements with confidence
