In the current EU Environmental and Raw Materials policies, raw materials play a key role in the transition from a linear to a circular economy, where a Life Cycle (LC) approach can help improve the overall sustainability.Within the dimension stone sector, some environmental studies have been developed through the standardised Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool.
and sustainability, it was important for NSI to conduct an industry wide Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). The LCA will evaluate the environmental impacts of its stone countertops in all life cycle stages, from stone quarrying to processing, fabrication, and through to the end of life. The goal of creating this industry wide LCA is to discover the
