Core Features
Helix equips organizations with an integrated toolkit for scalable, verified environmental insights:
Activity‑Based Footprinting: Automatically allocates factory-level inputs (energy, materials) to products across entire portfolios.
Bulk LCA Calculation: Conduct hundreds or thousands of LCAs simultaneously. According to the company, Helix is up to 99% faster than consultant-led methods.
Portfolio Hotspot Analysis: Identify high-impact products or processes at company, process, and material levels.
EPD & PCF Generation: Produce verifiable Environmental Product Declarations and Product Carbon Footprints scalable across portfolios.
Third‑Party Verification Support: Factory models are verified once, extending credibility to derived LCAs—reducing audit workload.
Collaborative Data Sharing: Engage suppliers and stakeholders in Scope 3 data aggregation and environmental profile exchange.
Closing Insights
Ecochain’s site features compelling portfolio-level use cases cutting across industries. A major construction firm produced over 500 LCAs across product lines using Helix for hotspot and footprint analysis. Several others also note how Ecochain enabled them to move from broad estimates to stage-specific detail for each of their product's footprint. Independent validation also came in the form of the 3A Composites, case where Helix integrated ISO 14001 data and EN 15804 modeling to assess Global Warming Potential (GWP) and track emissions. Recent technical enhancements reinforce Helix’s capabilities. In May 2024, its default LCA database was expanded with Ecoinvent, adding nearly 1,100 new datasets and more granular LCIA methods like EF 3.1 and EN15804+A2. Moreover, in April 2024, Helix achieved PACT conformance, enabling secure, interoperable footprint data exchange across supply chains. With rapid, low-cost EPD generation, robust portfolio modeling, continuous database updates, and verified data exchange, Helix stands as a robust LCA solution well positioned for evolving regulatory and market demands.
