SPX FLOW Teams Up with Footprint Intelligence to Enhance Product Sustainability Standards

SPX FLOW and Footprint Intelligence: Pioneering Sustainable Product Benchmarking

SPX FLOW, Inc., a global leader in process technologies, has embarked on an ambitious journey to elevate sustainability within its operations. Partnering with Footprint Intelligence, SPX FLOW is set to implement a comprehensive, AI-driven Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) system designed to enhance its sustainability benchmarks across various product lines. This collaboration is not merely a business move; it signifies a pivotal step towards accountable, traceable manufacturing practices in an era where environmental impact is critical.

The Importance of Sustainability in Manufacturing

In recent years, the push towards environmentally friendly manufacturing has intensified. Customers today demand transparency about the sustainable validity of the products they purchase. According to Tracy Beaudry, Vice President of Enterprise Safety Quality and Sustainability with SPX FLOW, establishing a reliable assessment protocol is vital. This AI-powered LCA will provide consistent benchmarks across their diverse technologies, ensuring that customers can have confidence in the environmental integrity of SPX FLOW products, from production to end-of-life.

LCA is a recognized methodology that quantifies environmental impacts throughout a product's lifecycle. This includes material sourcing, production processes, transportation, usage, and disposal. By analyzing these stages, SPX FLOW aims to gain comprehensive insights into its products' environmental footprints, which can inform better practices and innovations moving forward.
