Moving beyond “we are sustainable”. With an EPD, your commitment is demonstrated through scientific, verified and indisputable data covering the entire life cycle of your product.
EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) | ISO 14025
From words to data
ISO 14025
What is EPD?
An EPD is an environmental product declaration based on international standards (ISO 14025). It provides an objective, transparent and verified description of your product’s actual impact throughout its entire life cycle. The EPD is built upon an LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) study.
- less storytelling
- more real data
EPD: why
Why is it essential today?
An EPD developed in accordance with ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards enables:
- Access to tenders: without an EPD, you are “out of the game” in many sectors, especially construction. In Italy, an EPD is often required to meet specific CAM (Minimum Environmental criteria).
- Cost optimization: by analyzing your impact, we often identify exactly where energy and raw materials are being wasted.
- Tool trust: your buyers no longer have to rely on “gut feeling”. They will have certified document in their hands.
EPD and LCA (Life Cycle Assessment)
The link between EPD and LCA
We integrate both phases to ensure technical consistency, data reliability and high communication value.
LCA
Measure
An EPD always stems from an LCA study. The LCA analysis evaluates the environmental impacts of a product throughout its entire life cycle.
EPD
Communicate
The Environmental Product Declaration translates the LCA results into standardized, verified and public statement.
EPD: who is it for?
Who really needs an EPD?
An EPD allows you to position your products in markets that are increasingly sensitive to environmental criteria.
- manufacturing companies
- construction and building materials sector
- export-oriented businesses
- companies looking to enhance their product sustainability value
- organizations involved in public tenders, certifications and bidding processes
