EPD Compliance
What is an Environmental Product Declaration?
As demand for transparency grows, EPDs have become essential in construction, manufacturing, and supply chains. Companies with an EPD win 23% more tenders, meet stricter sustainability requirements, and express genuine commitment to reduce their environmental impact.

Measure
Baseline emissions are a record of the greenhouse gases that have been produced in the past and are the reference point against which emission reductions can be measured.
Aims and targets
Targets allow you to judge whether the plans you made to reduce your carbon emissions are working, and whether the reductions achieved are meaningful.
Reduce
Select best carbon reduction projects for you and your business, based on your values, the cost, and likely payback time.
Track
Track your carbon emissions to reflect the changes and compare how well you are doing against the targets.
Offset
Offset schemes work by paying volunteers, companies or charities to do things which ‘negate’ your carbon emissions, for example, planting trees.
Certify
Certification is a valuable process that provides checks and balances for the sector.
EPD vs PCD – Which one do I need?
Choose an EPD when you require a full environmental profile across multiple impact categories, underpinned by recognised, third-party verification. EPDs are the gold standard for compliance, major project requirements, and formal public disclosure.
Use a PCD when you need a fast, focused assessment of your products’ greenhouse gas emissions across its lifecycle. As PCDs only report on carbon, they are quicker, more cost-effective, and require less data than an EPD. Learn more about PCDs here.
If you require a complete, verified environmental declaration, an EPD is the right choice.
If you need rapid, reliable carbon data, a PCD offers the most practical route.
Why should you get an EPD?
With an EPD, you can:
- Win more tenders with widely recognised third-party verification data
- Meet growing client and regulatory requirements with confidence
- Showcase your product’s sustainability performance
- Support procurement and design decisions with comparable metrics
- Improve product design with insights obtained from LCA assessments
- Build transparency and trust across your entire supply chain
