[Registration Closed] SGBC Webinar: What are EPDs?
With the increasing onus on sustainability, building product transparency has started to gain global traction. Changes in consumer expectations, building certification systems, international laws and standards are finally beginning to converge on standardised corporate reporting on environmental, social and health impacts.
Many in the design and manufacturing communities are developing ways to easily communicate this information through what is often called a nutrition label for building products. An environmental product declaration, or EPD, is a voluntary declaration of a product’s life-cycle impact and are used for a wide variety of purposes such as green procurement, green building rating programmes and designing for the environment (ecodesign).
