EPD Development
An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a standardized document that conveys information regarding the environmental and human health effects of a product. It adheres to the ISO 14025 standard and utilizes the scientific approach of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). The primary aim of an EPD is to educate and engage stakeholders about a product's environmental impact. Consequently, businesses frequently utilize EPDs for commercial purposes.
Transparency
EPDs provide transparent and standardized information about a product's environmental and human health impact. This transparency allows consumers, businesses, and policymakers to make more informed decisions.
Informed Decision-Making
EPDs enable consumers and organizations to compare and select products based on their environmental performance, contributing to more sustainable choices.
Competitive Advantage
Companies that provide EPDs can gain a competitive advantage by demonstrating their commitment to sustainability and transparency.
Regulatory Compliance
EPDs may be necessary to comply with certain regulations or to access specific markets that require or incentivize environmentally friendly products.
