New EPD Declarations publication completed

AFV Beltrame Group updated the LCA (Life-Cycle-Assessment) study and completed the new EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) declarations of 6 products:

– hot rolled merchant bars (Italian and French mills)
– concrete reinforcing bars (French plant);
– industrial aggregate (Italian plant).

The EPD is the certification of the environmental impacts of a product, validated by a third party, according to ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards and based on the Product Category Rules (PCR) of the reference sector.

Within the EPD Declaration are sets of indicators useful to describe the environmental performance of products throughout their life cycle, including the GWP (Global Warming Potential) which measures #global warming emissions.

EPDs can be downloaded directly from the Programme Operator’s website “International EPD System“.
