EPD Creation Process

  1. Identify an existing PCR or create a new one.
  2. Perform an LCA assessment based on the PCR requirements.
  3. Develop the EPD to clearly communicate the product’s environmental performance.
  4. Review the LCA and verify the EPD with an independent third-party.

What is Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)?

it is the report card of your products’ environmental impact. It reports the environmental impact over the product life cycle. The environmental benefits of a company’s products, such as recyclability of packaging, are part of its overall marketing strategy, and companies want to communicate this to their consumers
The EPD methodology is based on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool that follows ISO series 14040
