As sustainability expectations rise and resources become increasingly limited, industries must shift toward more circular, responsible models. That means embedding environmental thinking directly into design processes—and understanding the full impact of products and systems across their entire life cycle.
From material selection to end-of-life strategies, eco-design and life cycle assessment (LCA) are critical tools for building more sustainable and resilient industrial ecosystems.
At Airbus Protect, we help organisations transform environmental ambition into tangible design and operational practices. By combining proven eco-design methods with deep expertise in LCA, we support clients in assessing their environmental footprint and identifying opportunities to reduce it—without compromising performance.
Our teams work closely with clients to anticipate the environmental impact of projects from the start, develop more circular approaches, and ensure critical resources are used wisely. We embed sustainability into every phase of the lifecycle, building long-term value and resilience.
Developing a dynamic ecodesign platform for engineering teams
For a major aerospace and defence organisation, we are building a methodological platform designed to guide engineering teams in integrating ecodesign principles throughout product development. The platform provides access to tools, resources, and methodologies for assessing and minimising environmental impact at system and component level.
It is designed as a collaborative and evolving space, adapting continuously to the organisation’s sustainability goals and ecodesign roadmap.

Some of which he’s passing on to his daughter Heather, who joined Airbus Protect in 2022 as a project controller. We sat down with Paul to learn more about his career […]
Introduction As many states and industries undergo a widespread shift from fossil fuels to emission-free electrification, batteries are becoming a crucial storage tool to facilitate energy transition. With falling costs, advancing innovation and supportive policies, the demand for this technology (essential for achieving climate and energy targets) is only increasing, according to a recent IEA [...]
