Upcoming Webinar: The EPD Advantage: Driving Sustainability with Verified Data

The Global GreenTag International EPD program invites you to a webinar to examine and discuss Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). You have two opportunities (March 11th or March 26th) to attend this combined training and Q&A live event, which will be led by Global GreenTag's Program Director - Dr Nana Bortsie-Aryee.

With global sustainability regulations becoming more stringent, the importance of EPDs is increasing as a tool for compliance and market leadership.

EPDs are critical for architects, designers, and specifiers to assess the embodied carbon of a building project. They can also reveal a great deal more, which is why manufacturers who decide to submit their products to an EPD process would benefit from understanding - why we have EPDs, how the industry uses them – and why it is beneficial to prepare and be clear about the findings within each EPD report and use these strategically to sell into projects, which are working with Circular Economy design, compelled to reduce Green House Gas (GHG) emissions and require EPD-certified materials to facilitate carbon accountability, sustainable procurement, and compliance with green building standards.

This training webinar is ideal for manufacturers with EPDs and for those who might be considering.

Learning take-aways

• What is an EPD and how they provide for architects, designers, and specifiers the data to assess the embodied carbon of a building project.

• How EPDs contribute to Circular Economy Practices.

• Explore how EPDs, compliant with ISO 14025 and EN 15804+A2, integrate into software modelling tools for accurate carbon footprint calculations.

• Common challenges in EPD Data Collection and Reporting and how to overcome.

• Learn how manufacturers can support sustainable design by providing high-quality EPDs that facilitate precise emissions assessments.

• Discover how architects use EPD data to make informed material choices and optimize sustainability in their projects.

• Understand the role of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in identifying improvement areas, enabling manufacturers to reduce their product's carbon footprint through process enhancements.

• Gain insights into the increasing importance of EPDs in regulatory compliance, green building certifications, and market competitiveness.

• Access to an EPD support community, including via a new website portal for the the Global GreenTag International EPD Program and socially, on the Global GreenTag EPD Program page on Linkedin
