LCA.no strengthens its sales team with Cato Hansen as the new Key Account Manager. Hansen started November 1st this year and brings with him valuable experience from Amesto Solutions and Visma. His role will be central to the development of LCA.no’s global partner network, with ambitious goals for future growth and distribution of the company’s innovative EPD solutions.
An Exciting Opportunity in a Growth Company
Hansen, who hails from Trosvik in Fredrikstad, has followed LCA.no with interest for several years.
– I find LCA.no to be a very exciting company with a well-timed solution. A great idea at the right time – A Fredrikstad-based company that is set to take on the world. Being a part of this, at the very core of what’s happening, is really cool.
He saw the job posting and felt the time was right for a change.
– Coming from the technology side, I see this as a huge opportunity – LCA.no offers a much more efficient way to produce EPDs. It frees up time and resources that our customers can use for generation og value instead of vasting time in an Excel spreadsheet.
Hansen is impressed by the company’s growth in recent years.
– LCA.no has grown tremendously in recent years and now has a solid platform for further expansion. It’s motivating to be part of this journey, he says.
Focus on Global Partner Development
Hansen’s main task will be to develop LCA.no’s global partner network.
– The goal is to sell 70-80 percent of our software through partners by the end of 2027. The market is young, so the potential is enormous. This is also part of a plan to increase turnover tenfold within the same timeframe.
He highlights several advantages of LCA.no’s cloud-based solution.
– The software is cloud-based, accessible on all devices, scalable, and suitable for everything from small businesses to large corporations, says Hansen.

– Many new requirements, both national and international, demand digital solutions for Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), in particular the upcoming requirement for product certificates. And we are right in the middle of it, with a time- and cost-saving solution.
Experience and Partner Focus
Hansen brings experience and partner thinking from his time at Visma and Amesto.
– I come from a background in sales of ERP systems and systems in general for the last 20 years. This gives me a solid understanding of how to build and develop a successful partner network.
Motivation and Circular Success
Hansen’s motivation is clearly linked to shared success.
– If we help our customers achieve their goals and achieve success through the products and services we deliver, we simultaneously create our own success. A kind of “recycling” of success, where we, our partners, and our customers all win. That is very motivating.
The addition of Cato Hansen strengthens LCA.no’s market position. His experience and focus on partner development will be crucial in achieving the company’s ambitious growth plans in sustainability and in the digitalization of environmental declarations. LCA.no is well-positioned to take a leading role in a rapidly growing market, with the help of new employees like Cato Hansen.
Faktaboks:
An EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) is a concise document that describes the environmental impact of a product or service. With our EPD Generator, we offer time- and cost-effective development of verified and published EPDs from 50,000 NOK.
See EPD-Norge for more information.
Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are:
- Approved by an independent third party
- Comparable, as they are developed according to standards
- Published (publicly available from www.epd-norge.no)
- Addable, so that an EPD can be used as a basis in environmental accounting for larger projects
Developing an EPD is often time-consuming and resource-intensive. LCA.no has developed a tool (EPD generator) to simplify this process. You can read more about it here.
