As part of its environmental transparency approach, SADEV provides Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) for several of its glass balustrade systems.

These EPDs give project owners, architects, specifiers and engineering offices access to reliable environmental data, in line with current regulatory requirements, particularly for projects subject to life cycle assessment (LCA) and environmental performance regulations.

What is an EPD?

An EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) is a standardized document that describes the environmental impacts of a construction product throughout its entire life cycle, including:

• Raw material extraction and processing

• Manufacturing

• Transport

• Installation

• Use phase

• End of life

EPDs are developed in accordance with EN 15804 and are verified by an independent third party before publication on an official environmental database such as INIES.

Why EPDs are essential for construction projects

SADEV EPDs enable:

• Integration of SADEV glass balustrades into building life cycle assessments (LCA)

• Compliance with environmental regulations and sustainability frameworks

• Support for environmental product specification

• Clear and standardized environmental data for project documentation

Available SADEV EPDs

SABCO / OSF EPD

The SABCO and OSF glass balustrade systems are covered by a validated EPD, including the configurations defined within the declared scope.

These systems are suitable for residential, commercial and public buildings requiring documented and verified environmental data.

ROMEO EPD

The ROMEO range, a glass balustrade system with stand-off installation, also benefits from an official EPD.

This declaration allows ROMEO to be specified in projects requiring reliable environmental data, while maintaining the technical and aesthetic performance of the system.

VARIANCE EPD

The VARIANCE solution, a glass balustrade system with side-mounted or surface-mounted installation, now has its own EPD, completing the SADEV environmental product portfolio.

This EPD enables specifiers and design offices to integrate VARIANCE into projects requiring a comprehensive environmental assessment.

SADEV environmental commitment

Providing EPDs is part of SADEV’s broader commitment to supporting building professionals by delivering reliable, verified and compliant product data, aligned with current environmental standards.

SADEV teams remain available to provide further information on the use of these EPDs within your projects.
