Why are categories important?
We create verified Life Cycle Assessments for a wide range of construction and building products. Explore the product categories we currently cover and see whether your product is included.
Each product category on Emidat comes with a pre-configured methodology, including the relevant PCRs, background datasets, and calculation logic. This methodology is pre-verified per category with the Program Operators, so when a manufacturer generates an EPD, the framework is already reviewed and approved. As a result, not only is the process from generating an EPD to publishing it significantly shorter, the modeling itself becomes easier and more accessible too.
Our solution is verified for the following product categories. Don’t see your product category listed? Send us a request!
