Publishing an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is an important milestone, but it shouldn't be the end of the journey.
The verified carbon and environmental data behind your EPD can do much more than satisfy a compliance request. It can help customers assess your products, strengthen tender and specification discussions, reveal opportunities for product improvement, and provide commercial teams with credible evidence to work with.
This practical training shows building material manufacturers how to turn EPD data into useful commercial and product insight, without oversimplifying the results or making claims the data cannot support.
You’ll learn how to interpret what your EPD is telling you, understand how different customers use the data, and turn those insights into better product, portfolio, and communication decisions.
What you’ll learn:
- How to read your EPD results with a commercial lens: Understand the scope, assumptions, impact indicators, and hotspots that matter before drawing conclusions from the numbers.
- How customers and specifiers use your data: See how architects, LCA consultants, contractors, developers, and procurement teams use EPD information in project, tender, and purchasing decisions.
- How to make meaningful comparisons: Understand when product comparisons are valid, and when differences in units, scope, performance, or assumptions can make them misleading.
- How to use EPD data for product and portfolio strategy: Identify environmental hotspots, stronger-performing products, areas of commercial exposure, and opportunities for improvement.
- How to communicate carbon performance credibly: Adapt the same verified data for sustainability, procurement, specification, and sales audiences without falling into unsupported green claims.
- How to get more value from your EPD after publication: Make the data easier to find and use, learn from customer engagement, and feed market insights back into product and commercial strategy.
Why this matters for manufacturers
Most companies begin their EPD journey because a customer, tender, certification scheme, or regulation requires environmental data.
But once the EPD exists, the same verified information can support much more.
It can help your teams understand where product impacts come from, where improvements may have the greatest effect, how products compare on a fair basis, and what evidence customers need to make decisions.
The opportunity is to move from treating an EPD as a one-off compliance document to using it as part of a repeatable product, sales, and market strategy.
Who should attend the training:
This session is designed for teams at building material manufacturing companies that already have EPDs or product environmental data and want to get more value from them, including:
- Sustainability and ESG teams
- Product and portfolio managers
- R&D and product development teams
- Sales and commercial teams
- Product marketing and marketing teams
- Technical and specification teams
- Manufacturing and operational leaders
