Limited Ecoinvent access - Earthster exclusive data packages

In Earthster you are able to utilize in your models Ecoinvent datasets with a limited access and more affordable pricing compared to a full Ecoinvent license.

Our default subscriptions come with the "Ecoinvent Starter" data package, which includes 20 unique unit processes shared within an organization.

We offer various data packages to better match your LCA needs.
