ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION
An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is your key to building trust, showcasing environmental responsibility, and gaining detailed insights into your product's ecological impact. Our expert team will guide you through every step of the EPD process, from life cycle assessment to third-party validation, ensuring a comprehensive and accurate declaration.
UNDERSTANDING EPDs
An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a comprehensive report that details the environmental impact of a product. It is essentially a product's carbon footprint calculated following standardised procedures for specific product types, known as Product Category Rules (PCR). The assessment, often referred to as a life cycle assessment or embodied carbon assessment, is validated by a third party to ensure comparability and reliability. Various organisations offer EPDs, and our preferred provider is the International EPD System, though we can collaborate with any EPD provider.
Clients may seek an EPD for various reasons, including regulatory and market-driven motivations:
Supply Chain Requirements: EPDs are often mandated by the supply chain, particularly in construction projects where environmental accountability is critical.
Quality Assurance: Seen as the "gold standard" of product carbon footprints, EPDs showcase a commitment to environmental responsibility and excellence.
Detailed Environmental Insights: EPDs are invaluable for clients interested in specific environmental impact categories, providing a clear and detailed analysis of their product’s environmental performance.ACHIEVE ENVIRONMENTAL TRANSPARENCY

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) offers numerous advantages for businesses and their products. By providing a transparent and verified report of a product’s environmental impact, EPDs help build consumer trust and enhance the perceived value of your products.
EPDs are recognised as accurate and truthful reflections of a product's carbon footprint, fostering consumer confidence.
They provide detailed data on various environmental impacts, such as eutrophication, offering a broader understanding of a product’s ecological footprint.
The third-party validation process ensures that the assessments are reliable and thorough, adding credibility to your sustainability claims.
An EPD signals to your stakeholders that your company is committed to transparency and environmental responsibility. This enhances your brand's credibility and sets you apart from competitors who may not have the same level of verified environmental data.
As the market shifts towards greater environmental accountability, having an EPD prepares your business for future regulatory changes and market demands. This proactive approach ensures long-term competitiveness and resilience.
TRANSFORMING YOUR PRODUCT'S ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
We offer complete life cycle assessments and embodied carbon assessments for products, providing clients with a detailed Tunley Report as the first step. Following this, we utilise SimaPro software to conduct a full environmental impact assessment, covering aspects like eutrophication and biogenic sequestration. This data is then formatted into an EPD following the specific Product Category Rules (PCR).
We have a team of PhD-Level Scientists with expertise in rigorous methodologies, assessments, and scientific processes.
We provide data as well as actionable reduction initiatives, ensuring a comprehensive and understandable carbon assessment report.
