Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are increasingly important in Poland for manufacturers and construction material suppliers seeking to provide verified information on their products’ environmental performance. EPDs, based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), measure environmental impacts from raw material extraction and production to product use and end-of-life management.
EPDs are essential for green building certifications, international market access, and ESG reporting. Many Polish companies rely on specialized consultants to conduct LCAs, prepare EPDs, and ensure compliance with international standards.
