BS EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 PDF Download

BS EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 is a European standard that provides core rules for the development of Type III environmental product declarations (EPDs) for construction products and services. This standard does not cover the assessment of social and economic performances at the product level.

The standard outlines the indicators that need to be declared, the information that should be provided, and the method for collecting and reporting this data. It also specifies the life cycle stages that should be considered in the EPD and the processes that should be included within each stage. Additionally, the standard defines rules for developing scenarios and includes guidelines for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD, including data quality specifications.

Furthermore, the standard addresses the reporting of predetermined, environmental, and health information that is not covered by Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for a product, construction process, or construction service if necessary. It also defines the conditions under which construction products can be compared based on the information provided by EPDs.

It is important to note that the same rules and requirements outlined in this standard also apply to the EPDs of construction services.
