What is an EPD and why does it matter?
An EPD provides a comprehensive and science-based analysis of a product’s environmental impact throughout its life cycle. These documents follow strict guidelines defined by PCR (Product Category Rules) and the ISO 14025 standard and are prepared in accordance with international standards. They provide detailed information on resource use, energy consumption, emissions, and waste management related to the production of the company’s products.
This standardized approach ensures:
Transparency
Verified data provides clear insights into a product’s environmental impact
Comparability
Environmental performance can be compared between products within the same category
Continuous improvement
Life-cycle emission data enables continuous improvement
