Nine out of ten construction professionals agree that more manufacturers need to provide sustainability performance information about their products. That was one of the outcomes of the latest NBS sustainability survey, in which 568 architects, engineers and others gave their views. One of the key ways of achieving this was to provide Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), with architects and other specifiers finding most useful information about the product stage of its life cycle, when materials are sourced, transported to the factory and made into something. And almost half of those surveyed said they will only specify or choose a named manufacturer on a project if they have declared better than average sustainability credentials. EPDs have been a major commitment within Ideal Standard’s sustainability agenda, and we’ve published them for more than 5,000 products today, broadening this out across our portfolio even further this year.
