A Standards-Focused Comparison of EPD Frameworks for Concrete: Guiding the ISO 13315-8 Update
2025
Overview
The proliferation of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for concrete and concrete-related products has seen remarkable growth since 2020, reflecting an increasing global commitment to sustainable construction practices. Concurrently, the introduction of the European standard EN 16757 for Product Category Rules (PCR) has provided a structured framework for creating EPDs that align with ISO 21930 and EN 15804, ensuring consistency and transparency. These developments underscore the need to revisit and refine ISO 13315-8, which plays a pivotal role in eco-labelling and EPDs for concrete products. This study undertakes an analysis of current EPD Standards on concrete to identify differences and characteristics among nations. By examining variations in methodologies, data quality, and regulatory requirements, the research aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of global EPD practices. These insights will inform the ongoing revision of ISO 13315-8, offering targeted recommendations to enhance its applicability and effectiveness in addressing the evolving needs of the concrete industry.
