LCA is a data intensive process. In an LCA project, the data collected from the field are called primary data, while the data obtained from databases are called secondary data. Most of the total data used in a routine LCA study consists of secondary data. It is almost impossible to carry out an LCA study without secondary data. However, secondary data, which reduces the cost of projects so much, directly affects the quality of the calculation.

Metsims started database studies at an early stage and developed projects together with the world’s leading organisations in this field.
