The Eco-indicator 99 method was developed by a team of experts from the Netherlands and (mainly) Switzerland as an endpoint characterization model for LCA’s using European data. This paper describes the approach to weighting and our approach to developing the impact pathways for the characterization factor. The paper addresses both the numerical uncertainties and the model uncertainties. In the final section an overview of applications is given.
