Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are crucial for Indian manufacturers aiming to enhance market competitiveness and comply with stringent global regulations such as CBAM, and the EU Green Deal, or local regulations of SEBIβs BRSR. By leveraging Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) and third-party verification, EPDs provide transparent, verified information about the environmental impact of products. This transparency helps build consumer trust and brand reputation while facilitating the adoption of sustainable technologies and eco-friendly practices.
From an investor's perspective, EPDs signify a company's commitment to sustainability and responsible manufacturing, making it an attractive investment opportunity. By demonstrating a proactive approach to environmental performance, EPDs highlight a company's long-term viability and risk management, which are key factors for investments. EPDs can also lead to improved resource efficiency and innovation, resulting in cost savings and operational efficiency.
Moreover, by incorporating products with third-party verified EPDs, construction projects can earn valuable additional points in the various international certification rating systems such as BREEAM and LEED. India holds the third largest LEED building footprint globally, spanning an impressive 7.2 million square meters. This not only enhances sustainability credentials but also drives economic demand for eco-friendly products, positioning product offerings as essential components in the rapidly growing green building market.
For Indian manufacturers, EPDs are not just a regulatory requirement but a strategic advantage in sustainable transformation, paving the way for manufacturing excellence, industry leadership, and long-term business success in the evolving export markets transition towards sustainability, such as the EU (European Union), North America and Middle East.
