Environmental Product Declaration

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), is a standardised and verified way of showing the environmental impacts of a product or system. These impacts are based on the consumption of raw materials, energy usage, waste generation and emissions over the full life-cycle. An EPD includes a carbon footprint alongside other environmental indicators.
