ABOUT US
LCA Support has more than ten years of experience in preparing life cycle calculations of buildings and construction materials (LCA - Life Cycle Assessment). The main services are preparation of EPD of building materials and calculations of the carbon footprint of buildings for the use of various green certificates (BREEAM, LEED, DGNB, etc.). In addition, LCA Support was the first in the Baltic States to start offering EPD verification services according to the Building Information Foundation RTS (Finland) or The International EPD System / Environdec (Sweden) publisher requirements. LCA Support provides services under Rangi Maja OÜ.
Anni Oviir has given trainings on LCA in cooperation with the Estonian Green Building Council, presented at several conferences (including Äripäev Säästlik Hoone, Sustainable Built Environment, Knowledge-Based Building, Low Carbon Construction, etc.), has been a guest lecturer at various universities and currently works as an LCA expert in construction at Tallinn University of Technology.

PROJECTS
EHITUSE E-HÜPE
As part of the Ehituse E-hüpe measure, LCA Support developed a digital tool in January 2025 to accelerate the verification process of environmental declarations (EPDs) for materials and products used in construction.
Accelerating the process of verifying environmental product declarations (EPDs) through process automation allows for significantly faster publication of declarations, lower the price of the service, and ensure continued compliance with verification requirements.
LCA Support has successfully completed a project in which the developed tool allows the verifier to better manage the process through a user interface designed for the verifier and the EPD owner. The verification is automated by an AI-based digital assistant integrated into the verifier's user interface, which allows for more efficient identification of deficiencies in the documentation.
The tool was evaluated by three external and two internal accredited EPD verifiers. All of them believe that the tool will help make the verification process more efficient and potentially reduce the cost of the service.
The project lasted from 01.02.2024 to 31.01.2025 and the amount of the grant was 69,000 euros. The project was financed from the NextGenerationEU funds of the European Union's recovery instrument.
