How to prepare for your verification process ?
Once your product LCA design is completed, it's crucial to conduct a thorough design check. Below is a concise checklist to guide you through the process.
​
-
All supporting documents are uploaded. These include Data Collection form, Calculations to demonstrate material and energy flow balance, Calculations of applicable allocation and averaging, Quantitative justification for cut-offs, Certificate of renewable energy, Electricity mix, Industrial Waste Declaration, References for assumptions, etc.
-
Data Quality check. Ensure that the data used in your LCA model is technologically, geographically and temporally representative of the material or process that it aims to depict.
-
All explanatory notes are filled. These include use of data, Allocation procedures, Averaging criteria and method, list of excluded processes, and any other estimates and assumptions.
-
LCA results check. Ensure Mass balance, Biogenic carbon balance and energy balance. Benchmark your results with similar product EPDs in the market.
-
Double check that all the mandatory information in the draft EPD is completed.
After making sure that you have the best version of the EPD and everything else in place, you can proceed to submit your EPD to EPD Hub..
