Cradle-to-gate in a nutshell

Cradle-to-gate encompasses the entire production process of the product, starting with the production of raw materials and ending with the transport of the finished product to the factory gates before its journey to the world.

“This process includes the entire manufacturing process and the related energy consumption, waste, packaging material, and the effects calculated on their basis,” says Susanna Kiviniemi, Senior Manager, Sustainability Services at Greenstep Oy. Greenstep has carried out LCA calculations for Lappset’s products.
