Definition
This field specifies whether there is a currently valid Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for the item in accordance with SS-EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 or SS-ISO 14025:2010.
Explanation
An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a third-party verified document that presents the environmental impact of a product or service throughout its entire life cycle, from raw material extraction and production to use and waste management.
EPDs follow international standards such as ISO 14025 (environmental labels and declarations) and EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 (for construction products and construction services). This ensures transparency, comparability, and high quality of environmental data.
The information is based on a standardized Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and is used as a basis for making sustainable choices, for example in construction projects.
More information is available from the Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning Boverket.
Usage
The supplier specifies whether the item has a valid EPD by selecting yes or no. If yes is selected, a valid EPD must be uploaded and an expiry date must be provided.
Finfo validates that the field contains a valid value.
Recipients may use the information as a basis for sustainability work, environmental assessments, and procurement processes.
