Allow €3,000 to €8,000 excl. VAT for a single-criterion carbon LCA through a consultancy, on one product and using secondary data: this is enough to identify the largest categories or decide on a material choice. Bpifrance Diag Éco-conception brings an initial assessment down to €5,400 or €7,200 excl. VAT payable, depending on company size. A complete ISO 14044-compliant LCA, needed for labelling or a public tender, rarely falls below €10,000 excl. VAT and is more likely to cost between €12,000 and €25,000 excl. VAT.
