As part of its sustainability strategy, and following an exhaustive life cycle assessment (LCA) of these key product ranges, Pemsa has published seven Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its Rejiband®, Rejiband® Rapide and Pemsaband® cable tray ranges, Megaband® cable ladder, supports and accessories. These documents comply with the international ISO 14025 standard and provide detailed and verified information on the environmental impact of a large part of the company’s product catalogue, aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
An EPD describes the environmental profile of a product, providing a quantified inventory of environmental data according to predefined impact categories based on the ISO 14025 and EN 15804 standards relating to life cycle analysis. The EPD quantifies raw material and energy consumption, as well as a series of environmental impact indicators. This ensures the data provided is reliable, relevant, transparent, comparable, and verifiable, thus enabling rigorous and precise environmental communication.
To develop these declarations, Pemsa conducted a full Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of its cable management systems, evaluating environmental impacts from raw material extraction to end-of-life, thereby offering a comprehensive view of each product’s environmental footprint.
Verified by AENOR under the Global EPD programme, the EPDs assess both products and manufacturing processes, addressing aspects such as environmental improvement, life cycle and carbon footprint. Additionally, these declarations demonstrate compliance with current environmental legislation and are essential for obtaining sustainability certifications in projects such as LEED and BREEAM.
In this way, customers can make more sustainable decisions based on up-to-date, real-world data, contributing to more environmentally responsible projects.
Pemsa’s EPDs are available on our website or on the AENOR website at EN 15804 Construction products without particular CPR.
