What is the validity of an EPD?

Created by Ariadna Serra, Modified on Tue, 12 Mar 2024 at 03:42 PM by Ariadna Serra

An EPD is valid from completion of the last step of the EPD process (Registration & publication) until a final validity date, which is declared in the EPD.


The EPD validity is normally five years. An expired EPD can still be published to give environmental information for products still in use, but may not been used in marketing. 


Regardless of the validity, a published EPD shall be updated during its validity if one of the environmental indicators has worsened for more than 10% compared with the data currently published.
