EPDs are not yet mandatory across the EU, but they are quickly becoming a standard requirement in construction markets. Many public projects, green building certifications, and procurement frameworks already require EPDs to demonstrate product environmental performance.

Several European regulations and national policies are also increasing demand for EPDs. Examples include the EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR) framework, France’s RE2020 regulation, and carbon disclosure requirements in countries such as the Netherlands. Similar trends are emerging globally, with initiatives like “Buy Clean” policies in the UK and US encouraging or requiring EPDs in public procurement.

As a result, EPDs are increasingly becoming essential for market access. The One Click LCA EPD Generator helps manufacturers prepare verified EPDs efficiently and stay ahead of evolving requirements.

An independent verifier reviews the data, methodology, and results to confirm that the EPD follows the relevant product category rules and reporting standards. Without third-party verification, most EPDs will not be accepted by certification schemes, regulations, or public procurement requirements.

While skipping verification may seem simpler initially, verified EPDs are typically required for market acceptance and credibility.

However, publication is required if you want your EPD to be publicly listed and recognized by program operators, certification schemes, or procurement frameworks. Our team can support you throughout the publication process.

With the One Click LCA Pre-verified EPD Generator, you can also benefit from a faster and more cost-efficient publishing process.

 EPDs created with One Click LCA can be published in virtually any EPD program worldwide. The platform helps manufacturers prepare documentation aligned with a wide range of program operator requirements.

One Click LCA maintains pre-verified status with several program operators, including EPD Hub and NRMCA. This enables a streamlined documentation process and a faster, more cost-efficient path to EPD publication.

Customers also use One Click LCA to publish EPDs with operators such as the International EPD System, UL Solutions, IBU, EPD Norge, and PEP Ecopassport.

Dedicated tools are available to support the documentation and reporting requirements of programs such as the International EPD System, EPD Australasia, and PEP Ecopassport. The platform also supports national databases and specialized programs, including the publication of FDES for the French INIES program with pre-generated INIES documentation and alignment with the Dutch Nationale Milieudatabase.

One Click LCA is also approved by the Concrete Sustainability Council for achieving its sustainable concrete ratings.
