ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION(EPD)

WHAT IS THE ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION (EPD) ?

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a rigorously third-party verified document that transparently communicates the environmental performance of a product, based on a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). It follows internationally recognized standards such as ISO 14025, EN 15804, and relevant Product Category Rules (PCRs), ensuring consistency, comparability, and reliability across products and industries.

An EPD provides credible, data-driven insights into a product’s environmental impacts across its entire life cycle—from raw material extraction through production, use, and end-of-life disposal or recycling. Independent verification ensures that the EPD’s data and methodology meet stringent quality and accuracy standards, fostering trust and transparency among regulators, customers, and investors.

For manufacturers and suppliers, obtaining an assured EPD facilitates market access by meeting increasing demand for environmental accountability in green public procurement, eco-labeling, and sustainability certification programs. It also supports informed decision-making aimed at reducing environmental footprints, optimizing resource use, and advancing corporate sustainability and Net Zero goals.

By delivering verified, reliable EPDs, KBS helps organizations demonstrate environmental leadership, differentiate their products in competitive markets, and contribute effectively to circular economy and climate action initiatives.
