Why do EPDs matter?

Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are becoming increasingly important, and integral to sustainable operations and decision-making in the built environment.

✔️ Clients are demanding EPDs within their procurement processes.

✔️ Manufacturers are investing in greater numbers of EPDs.

✔️ Architects are choosing more products with EPDs.

✔️ Programmes like BREEAM and WELL recognise EPDs.

At INTRAsystems, we view the EPD as a gold-standard for sustainable specification and comparison, and are proud to say we know the carbon footprint of nine of our most popular products – from cradle to grave – and all independently verified.

But, what exactly are EPDs?
