Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) Services

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a standardized document that communicates the environmental impact of a product across its entire life cycle. Based on the life cycle analysis (LCA) methodology, an EPD quantifies key environmental indicators such as:

  • Energy use

  • Greenhouse gas emissions

  • Water consumption

  • Waste generation

  • Other relevant environmental impacts

An EPD provides transparent, objective, and comparable information, making it a valuable tool for:

  • Green procurement and sustainable purchasing

  • Eco-labelling and environmental marketing

  • Product certification and compliance with green building standards (e.g., LEED, BREEAM)

EPDs are typically developed by manufacturers or product suppliers and must be independently verified by a third party to ensure accuracy and credibility. They follow international standards such as ISO 14025, ISO 21930, and EN 15804.
