How to read this
Three different instruments get confused with one another on submittals, so it is worth being exact about which is which.
An EPD, an Environmental Product Declaration, measures environmental impact across the whole life cycle — carbon, energy, waste, resource depletion. It always requires third-party verification, and it is built on ISO 14025 and EN 15804. It contributes to LEED and Estidama.
An HPD, a Health Product Declaration, is about human health alone: it discloses chemical ingredients and screens them against known hazard lists. It may be self-published, and third-party verification earns more credit. It contributes to LEED, WELL and mindful MATERIALS.
A VOC emission or content test report is neither. It is powerful evidence for indoor-air credits, and we will never present one to you as an EPD or an HPD.
The register
What is held, for which system, issued by whom. Every document listed is free to download from the specification section.
Where a document has lapsed or is a beta instrument, it is flagged here and on the download itself. We would rather you knew before a consultant told you.
What we can issue
The sustainability case
Six things stack up, and they are the reason these materials appear on giga-project sustainability schedules.
