Environmental Product Declaration
Why do EPDs matter in your sustainability journey?
Life cycle perspective
Our EPDs quantify impacts across all life cycle stages (raw material extraction, production, use phase, end-of-life). This ensures a science-based assessment of energy use, carbon footprint, and resource depletion.
Circularity insights
Our EPDs include standardized indicators such as recycling potential, recovery rates, and secondary material content—key metrics for evaluating circular economy performance.
Continuous improvement
Our EPD datasets enable evidence-based product improvements by highlighting environmental hotspots. These insights guide emission reduction strategies, material substitutions, and eco-design choices.
Credible communication
Our EPDs follow EN 15804/ISO 14025 standards, with independent data verification ensuring accuracy. This provides stakeholders transparent, comparable, and verifiable sustainability metrics.
EPD explained
An EPD includes a set of standardized environmental indicators such as climate impact (CO₂ emissions), resource use, energy consumption, waste generation, and recyclability.
These indicators cover the full product lifecycle, providing consistent and comparable data for informed decision-making.
Using Alfen’s EPDs, customers can:
- Integrate our data directly into their own sustainability reporting.
- Support CO₂ reduction strategies by selecting products with verified environmental performance.
- Strengthen their ESG disclosures with credible, lifecycle-based data.
Alfen is systematically expanding EPD coverage across its portfolio.
By working together with supply chain partners, we ensure our environmental reporting captures the full picture of product impacts at an ever more granular level.
