FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to develop an LCA?

The length of the LCA process depends on the complexity of the product. This relates to the number of ingredients, components or processes involved in its creation. The availability of data is another contributing factor. In most cases, the development process can take between 16 and 24 weeks.

Can I generate an EPD without an LCA?

No, an EPD is a document that can only be produced after an LCA has been developed. This helps to ensure that all PCRs (Product Category Rules) for the EPD are followed, and that all specific programme requirements and standards are fully adhered to.

What’s the difference between an LCA and a product carbon footprint (PCF)?

A product carbon footprint covers only one of the life cycle impacts of a product: climate change. A full LCA, on the other hand, includes several additional indicators, such as particulate matter formation and ozone depletion.

What is an Environmental Product Declaration?

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a standardised and verified document that provides detailed information on the environmental impacts of a product or service throughout its life cycle. EPDs present transparent and third-party-verified data on the environmental performance of a product, covering inputs such as energy and raw materials, and outputs such as emissions and waste.

How can an EPD help me position my product?

Thanks to the consistent methodology set out in the Product Category Rules (PCRs) and the rigorous verification process, EPDs enable detailed and transparent comparisons to be made between similar products and services. This has led to their widespread adoption across a range of industries, particularly in the construction sector – where they support informed decision-making by providing verified data to architects, designers, builders and consumers.
