An Environmental Product Declaration(EPD) is a standardized label designed to communicate the environmental impacts of a product in a scientifically-sound, streamlined, and comparable way. Because EPDs are based on standardized rules, comparisons of environmental performance are possible between like products under the same PCR. As a result, this type of eco-label empowers customers to make informed product choices as well as incentivizes manufacturers to design and build lower impact products.
This is a very useful tool to use to establish a lower carbon footprint for producing concrete, Climate Earth does an audit to analyze our facilities and put down on paper environmental impacts of our plants for transparency. Another reason why GOTHAM READY MIX should be supplying your next project!
