Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) Services

Get Your EPD Published — On Time and Verification-Ready

An Environmental Product Declaration provides standardized, comparable environmental data that supports green building certifications, procurement requirements, and market differentiation. Based on ISO-compliant life cycle assessment, EPDs are increasingly required for specification in LEED, BREEAM, and public sector projects.

The challenge: Most organizations underestimate the technical rigor and data requirements of EPD development, leading to extended timelines and verification issues.

Our approach: We provide end-to-end EPD development grounded in ISO 14040/44 methodology, designed to achieve third-party verification efficiently and defensibly.

Common EPD Development Challenges

Organizations pursuing their first EPD typically encounter:

Data completeness issues — Missing or inadequate inventory data for specific life cycle stages
PCR interpretation — Navigating Product Category Rule requirements and boundaries
Verification delays — Technical issues identified during third-party review
Resource constraints — Internal teams unfamiliar with LCA standards and methodology

These factors frequently extend project timelines by 6-12 months beyond initial estimates.

Our EPD Development Process

We guide manufacturers through systematic EPD development with clear deliverables at each stage:

1. Scoping & Data Requirements

Product Category Rules (PCR) selection, analysis, and application
Life cycle stage mapping per ISO 21930/EN 15804
Data inventory requirements and collection planning
Early identification of data gaps and modeling approaches

2. Life Cycle Assessment Development

Primary data collection and validation with your technical team
Engineering-based estimates for unavailable data points
Product system modeling using professional LCA software
Sensitivity analysis to test assumptions and variability
Uncertainty assessment and documentation

3. EPD Compilation & Verification Support

LCA results compiled into EPD format per program operator requirements
Technical documentation prepared for third-party review
Verification process coordination and response management
Final EPD publication support

Quality focus: Our LCA documentation is structured for verification readiness, reducing review cycles and timeline risk.

Working With LCA Design

Efficient project execution: We provide realistic timelines based on your data availability and internal resource capacity.

Technical transparency: You receive complete LCA documentation and methodology rationale, not just final results.

Verification readiness: Our documentation approach anticipates third-party reviewer requirements, reducing revision cycles.

Flexible engagement: We adapt to your team’s technical capabilities from full-service development to targeted technical support.
