A variety of EPD standards and types have evolved globally to accommodate business needs and local regulations. Manufacturers need to understand the different types of environmental product declarations (EPDs) to communicate accurately about which ones they offer and how their customers can benefit from them.
Here are some of the most common applications of EPDs and the type of EPD needed in each case:
- Third-party verified EPD for any purpose — ISO 14025 compliant
- Sister EPDs for selected applications — EN 15804 and ISO 14025 compliant
- Internally verified Project EPDs for contracts & tenders
- Self-declared EPDs for transparency requirements
