Environmental Product Declarations
Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) provide a means for manufacturers to provide transparent data about the environmental sustainability of their products and for specifiers to make informed purchasing decisions.
Product Category Rules (PCRs) provide the methodology for producing an EPD for construction products. They are necessary to enable comparison of the environmental impacts of construction products at the building level.
EN 15804 assesses the environmental impact of a construction product throughout its life cycle against a range of environmental indicators. The standard sets out the PCRs for the development of an EPD for construction products, to ensure that all types of construction products are assessed consistently using the same methodology and approaches.
Not every product in every combination will have an EPD, please check here:
EPDs for Monolithic Glass
EPDs for Insulating Glass Units
If you can’t find an EPD for your specific product combination, we may be able to provide a GWP figure (Global Warming Potential) derived from internal calculations. Please contact us by email.
