Recording of NRMCA Environmental Product Declaration Webinar Now Available for Viewing

The recording of an NRMCA Webinar titled Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) presented earlier this week is now available for viewing at www.nrmca.org/sustainability. Well established in other parts of the world, EPDs are starting to appear in the U.S. as the common methodology for assessing the environmental performance of products. The U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED v4 Rating System and Architecture 2030 for Products are starting the demand for EPDs. 

This 1-1/2 hour Webinar offers a brief overview of EPDs, the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) that supports them and the Product Category Rules (PCRs) that sets the ground rules. In addition, the Webinar discusses NRMCA’s EPD Program, which enables concrete producers to meet the new requirements for EPDs.
