What you need before generating an EPD.

A checklist for manufacturers preparing an Environmental Product Declaration, from the bill of materials to the verifier pack.

ChecklistBefore you generate an EPD​

Product data

  • A current bill of materials with component masses
  • Material specifications for each component
  • Manufacturing site energy and process data
  • Packaging and distribution assumptions

Supplier data

  • Supplier-specific data for the highest-impact materials
  • Material declarations or existing supplier EPDs
  • A record of where industry averages are still used

Method and verification

  • The relevant product category rules (PCR)
  • The declared unit and system boundary
  • A programme operator and independent verifier
  • A background report linking results to sources
