Print this Article | Send to Colleague
NRMCA recently verified five system-level Environmental Product Declarations for NMRCA Producer members Schuster Concrete, Silvi Materials, Tec-Crete Transit Mix, Monumental Concrete and Kerrs Concrete.
- Schuster Concrete - public access to the EPD is available on the NRMCA EPD webpage as NRMCA EPD: 20083 Schuster Concrete. This EPD reports the impacts for ready mixed concrete from four plants in Maryland. This is an addition to an EPD reporting impacts for one portable plant operating in Washington, DC.
- Silvi Materials - public access to the EPD is available on the NRMCA webpage as NRMCA EPD: 20086 Silvi Materials. This EPD reports the impacts for ready mixed concrete from 10 plants in the greater Philadelphia market.
- Tec-Crete Transit Mix - public access to the EPD is available on the NRMCA webpage as NRMCA EPD: 20087 Tec-Crete Transit Mix. This EPD reports the impacts for ready mixed concrete from two plants in Queens, New York.
- Monumental Concrete - public access to the EPD is available on the NRMCA webpage as NRMCA EPD: 20088 Monumental Concrete. This EPD reports the impacts for ready mixed concrete from one plant in Washington, DC.
- Kerrs Concrete - public access to the EPD is available on the NRMCA webpage as NRMCA EPD: 20089 Kerrs Concrete. This EPD reports the impacts for ready mixed concrete from one plant in Maiden, NC.
Each of the above EPDs were developed in consultation with and based on a software tool by Climate Earth, except for Monumental Concrete which was developed in consultation with and based on a software tool by WAP Sustainability Consulting. Both software tools integrate LCA impacts within batch operating software to generate EPDs when desired. The software tools were reviewed and verified by Industrial Ecology Consultants.
EPDs for Schuster Concrete, Silvi Materials and Monumental Concrete were verified by Ecoform. EPDs for Tec-Crete Transit Mix and Kerrs Concrete were verified by Industrial Ecology Consultants. Both are verifiers in NRMCA’s EPD program.
