Abstract
This study examines the life cycle assessment of health and environmental impact of ceramic tiles product in Edo State. The study examines the use and disposal stages of the life cycle of ceramic tiles. Primary data is used for the study, through the use of questionnaires distributed
using the Google Form. The questionnaire form is sent to four hundred (400) individuals in Benin City via their phone numbers. This method of distribution helped in reaching many individuals. The logistic regression technique was used to analyse the data obtained from the field. The adoption of the logistic technique was as a result of the binary nature of the dependent variables used in the study. However, the study finds that the use and disposal stages have no significant impact on the bad health condition of individuals but the two stage have significant
positive effect on the bad environmental condition on the state. However, the disposal stage is seen to have more significant effect on the bad environmental condition of the State. This means that there no proper ways of disposing the ceramic tiles waste in the State. As a result the study recommends that alternative method of flooring buildings and that more licenses should be given to more private waste disposal firms.
