Frozen foods company Nomad Foods has called on the food industry and regulators across Europe to consider a more comprehensive, end-to-end approach to Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies, which includes food loss and waste impacts, to improve transparency for consumers and drive critical action to reduce carbon emissions.
The group recently enlisted the help of impact assessment firm PRé Sustainability, to conduct an end-to-end LCA study for 22 of Nomad Foods’ most popular products.
“Consumer demand for nutritious, high-quality, sustainable food is growing and we believe it’s vital that we find ways to provide consumers with information that helps them make informed choices and provides confidence that sustainability claims are robust and evidence-based," commented Stéfan Descheemaeker, CEO, Nomad Foods.
