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.

What is Containerisation? Containerisation – the practice of packaging software code and dependencies into a single ‘container’– has become the backbone of modern, cloud-native app development. Used in conjunction with other technologies like microservices, serverless architectures and DevOps, containerisation enables teams to quickly build, deploy, reconfigure and scale applications to run in any computing environment.

In this new series, we ask safety, sustainability and cybersecurity experts three questions to learn more about their role at Airbus Protect. First up is Christian Siemers, who’s based in our Ottobrunn office. Could you tell us what your job as an OT consultant involves? The first half of our job as OT consultants is […]
In these days of mass storage of data on clouds, muddied RGPD waters [ref] and regular massive data theft [ref], it has become – morally and legally – mandatory for companies to take steps to protect some or all of their data from unwanted access. This often turns into company directives or technical specifications that […]
