We reached out to Judith Masip Calle, Technical Support Specialist & Sustainability Responsible at Uponor for some answers and more on the subject of EPDs.
There’s no doubt of the importance of sustainability in the construction industry.

This proof comes in the form of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). But what exactly are EPDs, and what do their use mean?
