SimaPro, PRé Join One Click LCA, Creating the World’s Largest Sustainability Data Platform
- The combined platform brings together +500,000 datasets, covering construction, manufacturing supply chains, chemicals, and more.
- Both brands remain distinct products but will benefit from shared investment in AI, supply chain data integration, and compliance solutions.
- The alliance aims to reach 1 million users by 2035, supporting global carbon reduction and regulatory compliance.
One Click LCA, the global leader in scalable life-cycle assessment (LCA) software, has added SimaPro and PRé Sustainability to its platform, creating what it calls the world’s largest and most advanced LCA ecosystem. Together, the companies will provide access to more than 500,000 datasets across industries and support over 140 global standards, serving users in more than 170 countries.
“This is a pivotal moment in scaling the use of LCA,” said Panu Pasanen, CEO and founder of One Click LCA. “SimaPro has set the benchmark for transparency in LCA for 30 years, while One Click LCA has focused on making LCA scalable, accessible, and actionable. By joining forces, we can meet the growing global demand for high-quality sustainability data — from research labs to global supply chains — and accelerate progress toward a zero-carbon future.”
The integration combines SimaPro’s market-leading reputation for science-based modeling with One Click LCA’s strengths in automation, scalability, and ease-of-use. The joint platform is positioned to help companies comply with increasingly stringent sustainability regulations, including the EU Construction Products Regulation, the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive, and the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation.

Eric Mieras, Managing Director of PRé Sustainability, added: “Joining One Click LCA enables us to accelerate PRé Sustainability’s mission to scale LCA. We can now bring our scientific rigor and LCA robustness to a far wider audience, backed by the powerful technology and ease-of-use of One Click LCA.”
The combined entity already works with more than 5,000 global companies, including Siemens Energy, Procter & Gamble, Johnson & Johnson, AECOM, and ABB. Partnerships with Autodesk, Bentley Systems, and top sustainability consultancies further extend its reach.
Both SimaPro and One Click LCA will continue as distinct products, while joint investment will expand databases, integrate AI and supply chain solutions, and strengthen sector-specific compliance offerings — all with the goal of making LCA more accessible and impactful on a global scale.
