LPC ECOSYSTEM
The Living Product Challenge Ecosystem is composed of the leading product certification and sustainability consulting companies helping to scale the Living Product Challenge. Included in the Ecosystem are all of the ILFI-approved Third Party Verifiers and Material Health Assessors required to complete the Material Health Imperatives, as well as LCA Consultants. Manufacturers may either select an Assessor from the LPC Ecosystem, or the Institute may assign an Assessor based on product type and manufacturer needs. Manufacturers will work with the Assessor to gather documentation and verify compliance with Imperative requirements.
