Unilin Insulation - UK & Ireland reposted this
As the year draws to a close it's encouraging to see the progression that the industry has made in carbon measurement & reduction. At Unilin Insulation - UK & Ireland we look forward to these prospective changes some of which we discussed with One Click LCA recently, as well as the measurable impact verified EPDs have on LCAs. The webinar recording can be found here https://lnkd.in/eMGGa8tU and the related article is available https://lnkd.in/dTpbh6M7
"Changing nothing but simply using verified EPDs, we went from 628 to 507 kilograms of CO₂ per square metre. This shows the significant impact that verified EPDs can have." — Marc Walsh, Product Management and Development Engineer at Unilin. With increasing pressure from customers and specifiers for transparent product carbon data and a fast-evolving regulatory landscape, including the Construction Products Regulation, UK construction manufacturers are at a critical point in time. The need to showcase product embodied carbon is now a driving force for manufacturers, enabling them to align with customer expectations and prepare for regulations that will make it imperative. Read about some of these regulations that will impact UK manufacturers, how one manufacturer is future-proofing their business, and how environmental product declarations (EPDs) play a key role.
