Faro Barcelona is taking a further step in its sustainability strategy by developing, together with the Inèdit team, specialists in ecodesign, a proprietary tool to analyze the life cycle of its products.

This solution enables the company to accurately measure the individual carbon footprint of each reference in its catalogue and assess its real environmental impact based on verified data.

The new system is built around the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, which examines every stage a product goes through: raw material extraction, manufacturing, transport, use, and end of life. The process is carried out in compliance with ISO 14040 standards, applying specific rules for lighting products and using the international Ecoinvent v3.9 database, one of the most widely recognized benchmarks in sustainability.

Thanks to this approach, the Barcelona-based company can pinpoint where the highest environmental impacts occur and make more informed decisions in the design and development of its luminaires and ceiling fans. The tool also lays the groundwork for obtaining Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) verified by PEP Ecopassport, an international reference program for electrical and lighting products.

With this initiative, Faro Barcelona strengthens its commitment to transparency and continuous improvement by embedding measurable environmental criteria into its creative and industrial processes. A step forward that positions rigorous measurement as the starting point for designing lower-impact solutions ready to meet the sector’s evolving demands.
