Presently located in the UNIUD LAB VILLAGE, LOD is one of the most qualified European dynamic olfactometry laboratories.
Lod provides analyses on odors originating from processes of any type and nature, in order to provide objective data that allow quantifying the emitted odor.

Quite often, techniques of chemical-physical analyses do not allow solving problems: this is why it is essential to associate them with sensory methodologies. It is precisely in this framework that dynamic olfactometry comes in, as a group of selected people determines the detection threshold of sampled air.
The number of dilutions necessary to have smell reach the olfactory detection threshold is expressed as an index of odor concentration in Odor Units per Meter.

Sustainability Report: measure to understand, understand to innovate
Traditionally, our work has been based on precision and analysis. Measuring odors means understanding, and understanding means finding solutions.
Now, we apply the same logic to sustainability: measuring our impact is the first step toward managing it more effectively.
In 2024, we will report our commitment to ESG for the first time in the Group Luci Sustainability Report. It's not just about collecting data, but about structuring an approach that makes sustainability a guiding value in our choices.

A look to the future
Expanding our role in research: we aim to broaden our collaborations with academic bodies and institutions to advance innovation projects in the analysis and management of odors.
Integrating sustainability into business strategies: reporting is just the first step. We want to structure a path where sustainability becomes an integral part of business decisions, from resource management to the solutions we offer our clients.
Improving resource management: we will work to increase the energy efficiency of our operations, reducing waste and optimizing operational processes.
Sustainability in practice: our contribution
A rigorous and certified approach: LOD is the only laboratory in Italy accredited by ACCREDIA for dynamic olfactometry, ensuring high standards of quality in measurements and services offered.
Environmental impact under control: we analyze our consumption and emissions with the same precision with which we measure odors. In 2023, we reduced indirect CO2 emissions related to electricity by 10.4% compared to 2022.
Energy efficiency and self-production: since 2023, part of our energy comes from a photovoltaic system located at our premises, which has covered 13.8% of our energy needs.
