Environmental Product Declarations & Green Buildings
Since 2008, ASSA ABLOY is leading the way towards a more transparent and sustainable global industry with its participation in the EPD program.
An Environmental Product Declaration is a complete mapping of a products environmental footprint based on a detailed LCA (Lifecycle Assessment), independently verified by an accredited 3rd party.
It does not guarantee a product is energy efficient or sustainable, but allows the user to make an informed choice when selecting one solution over another.
Across all regions, it is forecasted that more than 60% of building projects will be green by 2018.
