Case Study
How Würth is Using the Sustainability Data Science Life Cycle to Detect Environmental Hotspots
KNIME AG helped Würth detect environmental hotspots and improve sustainability by enabling the development of a reusable, scalable Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) solution in collaboration with Fraunhofer IBP. Using KNIME Analytics Platform, Würth automated data loading, cleaning, blending, and LCA computations across millions of data points and multiple sources from their product portfolio. This approach allowed rapid analysis of 24,000 CO2 footprints in under two minutes, enhanced collaboration, reduced manual effort, and provided actionable insights to drive sustainable product and process improvements.
