In general, LCI data shall be based on data from at least 1 year of production. If such data is not available because the product has not yet been produced for 1 year, the LCI data may be based on data from a shorter time period (e.g. 3 months) provided that the data can be proved to be conservative or representative for 1-year data. In such cases, the product description shall include a disclaimer saying "Product recently on the market – LCI data is not yet based on 1 year of production" and the EPD shall be updated and re-verified when data from 1 year of production is available.
