Qweeko's values
At Qweeko, our values represent a real decision-making tool that we rely on. Thus, we defend them on a daily basis, in our operation, our management and our development strategy.
Transparency
Transparency is the essence of Life Cycle Assessment. We apply it to our business as well as to our internal and external communication methods.
Conquest
Conquest refers to the notions of resilience, adaptability and ambition that are essential to achieving our goals.
Scientific excellence
Automating LCA yes, but never at the expense of the relevance of the results generated. Scientific excellence is part of our DNA and has also become a strong differentiator of Qweeko.
Performance
Individual performance at the service of collective performance!
Responsibility
Acting in line with our mission means limiting our environmental impact personally and at the company level.
Benevolence
We believe this value is essential for good team cohesion and for the proper functioning of Qweeko.
Just over a year ago, we were looking for an LCA and PEP solution for our industrial customers and supplier partners, and came across Qweeko's offer. One of our major suppliers volunteered to test the solution and compare the results with analyses previously carried out by an LCA expert. Our supplier's feedback was clear: faster, simpler, and completely consistent results. I then presented Qweeko to a customer in the electric panneling trade who was looking to understand this new world for his company. Qweeko's very didactic approach enabled my client to be reassured about the seriousness of the proposal and to place an order very quickly. Qweeko went through the process with the customer, proposed a schedule for the deliverables and finally kept its commitments to him. It's a success story that we'll be replicating with other customers and suppliers in the coming weeks. For all these reasons, Rexel has signed a contract with Qweeko.
Benoit Ribault
Director of Projects, Innovation and Services
Having already had some experience of LCA and PEP creation, it was easier to assess Qweeko's work and the collaboration proved to be very positive. We found a team driven by a genuine interest in sustainable development and a thorough knowledge and understanding of the PEP and LCA environment as well as industrial constraints. Very professional, very efficient and very satisfying.

Head of LCAs Zehnder France
I'm delighted with the successful collaboration we've had with Qweeko. ITEC was able to carry out life cycle assessments and draw up PEP sheets for its flagship products in fast-track mode, thanks to the talented team at Qweeko. I'd like to thank them for their professionalism, efficiency and friendliness! Thank you to our partner Rexel for putting me in touch with them.
