EPD Environmental Product Declarations for the G-Eco Core 40 heat pump and the G-Energy Coil storage tank
Gebwell’s EPD project continues. In addition to the previously reported Taurus EVI and Taurus Inverter Pro heat pumps, an EPD has now also been prepared for the G-Eco Core 40 heat pump and the G-Energy Coil 3×25 2SV storage tank.
EPDs support our customers and partners especially in projects where transparent, comparable information on environmental impacts is required.
What does an EPD show?
An EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) is a Type III environmental declaration based on ISO 14025 and a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). For construction products, EPDs are typically prepared in accordance with EN 15804 and verified by an independent third party in line with the programme operator’s requirements.
Our EPDs cover environmental impacts and resource use across the product life cycle—from sourcing raw materials and components to manufacturing and delivery. They also consider end-of-life stages such as dismantling, transport, waste treatment, and material reuse and recycling.
In practice, EPDs help, for example, with:
- comparing products’ environmental impacts in procurement
- carbon footprint calculations in building and real estate projects (for product data)
- meeting sustainability requirements already at the tender/RFQ stage
EPDs can be used in design, tendering and documentation—and they also support our continuous product development by providing measurable, comparable life-cycle data.
Manufacturer carbon footprint reports
The EPD prepared for G-Energy Coil 3×25 2SV provides a basis for storage tanks. The EPD has been modelled in an LCA tool, enabling us to produce self-declared, model-specific carbon footprint reports in accordance with ISO 14021 for other storage tank models as well. The reports are based on the life-cycle calculation behind the verified EPD and are updated per model, for example by adjusting component data.
