Glas vs. kunststof: LCA van olijfolieflessen
Researchers at the University of Bologna in Italy studied the global supply chain for extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO) according to a life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology. The LCA was applied to determine the environmental impact categories associated with the bottled EVOO life cycle, focusing on packaging decisions.
The analysis identifies the greatest environmental stressors, thereby supporting decisions toward more efficient and environmentally-friendly operations management and packaging choices. The findings from the LCA highlight the potential of PET bottles in reducing the environmental impact of EVOO supply chains. An article about the research is published in Sustainability.
