Environmental Product Declarations
Environmental product declarations help provide the data you need to prove the true impact of your products on the environment. To create a comparable EPD, you must follow the same rules and guidelines called product category rules (PCR). As an EPD program operator, ASTM reviews life cycle assessments and verifies the Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs).
EPDs from ASTM show:
Material content
Recycled content
Service life
Global warming potential
Water consumption
Emissions to air and water
Waste generation
Ozone depletion potential
Respiratory effects
