PIQET 5.0 sustainable packaging tool

Wednesday, 16 October, 2024 | Supplied by: Lifecycles


Lifecycles has launched version 5.0 of its Packaging Impact Quick Evaluation Tool (PIQET).

Originally developed in 2008 by Sustainable Packaging Alliance in partnership with Nestlé Australia, Cadbury Schweppes, Lion Nathan, MasterFoods Australia, Simplot Australia and other research partners, PIQET is an LCA tool for assessing a packaging’s cradle-to-grave impact.

Today, under the ownership and operation of Lifecycles, PIQET 5.0 takes this mission further. This update introduces features such as ISO 14044 compliant reporting, organisation packaging footprint for Scope 3 tracking across the packaging portfolio, and other tools to assist packaging specialists in optimising their designs to reduce environmental impact and increase product efficiency.

Other features include: weighted PEF Indicators to help brands assess impacts beyond carbon, such as water, ozone depletion, particulate matter, acidification and more; new end-of-life pathways which are suitable for advanced packaging solutions; and material certification tracking to monitor certified material percentages over time.
