Abstract
Nowadays, the aim is to minimize the impact of a product or service on the environment in all phases of its life cycle. In particular, this applies to those in which the impact is greatest. One of the techniques that allow comprehensive assessment of the environmental impact of manufactured products is Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). With this method, an environmental declaration is made for the products obtained. WPC composites can be made in a sustainable way, without wasting any material and without altering. WPC composites can be made in a sustainable way, without wasting any material and without altering. Composites with wood fillers may be competitive to materials with inorganic fillers. Wood-polymer composites can be produced from original natural raw materials. They can also be obtained as a result of recycling, where either wood or polymers come from the recyclate. It is also possible to use both components from recovery. Another way is to use WPC as a future raw material. Research on the utilization of waste from such materials is also conducted in a number of research centres, taking material recycling as the basic direction, and technical products are manufactured from the obtained recyclate.
