You may have heard the term EPD, but what does it actually mean?

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is an independently verified report that provides transparent environmental information about a product.

Rather than relying on marketing claims alone, EPDs help project teams compare products using measured and verified data.

As sustainability requirements continue to grow across the construction industry, understanding EPDs is becoming increasingly important.

When assessing a product's sustainability credentials, what do you look for first?

For many engineers, builders and project teams, confidence comes from independent verification and transparent reporting, not just marketing claims.

Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) help provide a consistent way to compare environmental performance using measured and verified data.

What matters most to you when evaluating sustainability claims?

Sustainability claims are easy to make.

But how do you know which ones are backed by real evidence?

That’s where independent assessment, Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) and measured performance become so important.

They help engineers, builders and project teams make informed decisions based on verified data, not assumptions.

What do you think matters most when assessing a product’s sustainability credential - third-party verification, performance data, or something else?

A major part of sustainability is what happens long after construction is complete.

Design life, durability and lifecycle performance all influence how much maintenance, repair and replacement a structure may require over time.

That’s why long-term thinking matters in sustainable construction.

Not all environmental impact happens during construction.

A major part of sustainability is what happens years later - repair work, rebuilding, replacement and ongoing material consumption.

That’s why lifecycle performance matters just as much as the initial build process.

The fastest way to create more waste is to build something twice.

Longevity matters in sustainable construction. The longer a system performs reliably, the less replacement, material consumption and long-term environmental impact it creates.

That’s why durability and lifecycle performance matter.

It’s not just the building that impacts a site.

It’s the excavation, spoil removal, transport movement and disruption that happen before the structure even begins.

Construction impact isn’t just measured by the materials used.

It’s also shaped by excavation, spoil removal, transport movement and site disruption throughout the build process.

What leaves a site matters too.

Most people never think about the environmental impact below ground.

Excavation.
Concrete transport.
Spoil removal.
Site activity.

Traditional foundation systems create impact long before the build even starts.

Sometimes the better solution is the simpler one.

One of the biggest environmental impacts in construction is often hidden below ground.

Foundations affect material usage, transport, site activity, and embodied carbon throughout the building process.

Katana screw piles can produce up to 79% less carbon compared to traditional concrete bored piers.

Sustainability in construction doesn’t just start above ground.

It starts below it.
