Recolight announces One-Off EPD Service

Recolight has launched a new One-Off EPD service to make Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) as accessible as possible.

EPDs are becoming essential in the lighting industry, with momentum driven, in part, by the EU Green Deal requirements in addition to growing market demand for rigorous environmental metrics.

With sustainability always at the heart of Recolight’s efforts within the lighting industry, the company has now introduced the new One-Off EPD Service which is designed specifically for manufacturers looking for an economical stepping stone into the world of EPDs.

Using all data on materials and components supplied by a manufacturer, Recolight will create and arrange verification of an EPD for a family of lighting products. This allows manufacturers to rapidly create a single EPD, familiarise themselves with the EPD process, and assess their options for future EPD requirements.

Commenting on the launch of the service, Max Robson, Recolight’s Environmental Metrics and Training Manager, says, “Outsourcing your first EPD to get started is typically an expensive, and sometimes opaque and lengthy process. Recolight will generate and verify an EPD in weeks, rather than months, and at a cost effective, flat rate with no ongoing costs. You will be kept up to speed on the process, providing you with insights into the EPD process. All EPDs will be verified and published through EPD Hub.”

Recolight CEO, Nigel Harvey, adds, “This new service uses the One Click LCA software and dedicated luminaire tool, already used by many lighting manufacturers. It is ideal for manufacturers who want to get their foot in the EPD door, and who need a single, or very low volume of EPDs per year. But as companies gain familiarity with EPDs, and their needs grow, it is likely that it will become more cost-effective to obtain their own licence.”
