EPD Certification: A New Milestone for DIADEM in Sustainable Construction

DIADEM is committed to delivering sustainable, measurable, and transparent construction solutions. As further proof of this commitment, our green roof systems have obtained Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification, independently verifying the environmental performance of our products.
This is more than a document.
It represents a new professional benchmark.
Demand for sustainable construction and manufacturing has increased dramatically in recent years. Today, developers, architects, and investors evaluate solutions not only based on price and technical performance, but increasingly on measurable environmental impact. In this context, the EPD plays a decisive role.

What Is an EPD?

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is an independently verified document that assesses the environmental impacts of a specific product throughout its entire life cycle. The analysis evaluates impacts from raw material extraction, through manufacturing and transportation, to installation, use, and ultimately recycling or disposal. EPDs are based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology and are prepared in accordance with internationally recognized standards, including the guidelines of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This ensures data reliability, transparency, and comparability across products and markets.

What Does This Mean in Practice?

An EPD provides quantified environmental indicators, including:

  • Carbon dioxide emissions (CO₂)
  • Primary energy consumption
  • Water consumption
  • Acidification and eutrophication potential
  • Waste generation

This enables designers and investors to make objective, data-driven decisions when selecting DIADEM solutions.

Why Is This Important for Designers and Developers?

Transparent Decision-Making

An EPD is based on verified data — not marketing claims. In large-scale developments, public procurement projects, and international tenders, this level of documentation is increasingly a fundamental requirement.

Support for Green Building Certifications

Many sustainability rating systems, such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), favor or require products with EPD certification.

DIADEM’s EPD certification directly supports our partners in achieving higher sustainability ratings for their projects.

Future-Proof Compliance

With tightening environmental regulations and increasingly ambitious carbon-reduction targets worldwide, EPD certification provides long-term regulatory and strategic security.

What Does This Mean for DIADEM?

Obtaining EPD certification:

  • Confirms the transparency of our technological and manufacturing processes
  • Reinforces our long-term sustainability strategy
  • Strengthens our international competitiveness
  • Further solidifies DIADEM’s professional position in the market of innovative green roof and green infrastructure solutions

For us, sustainability is not a promise.

We measure it.
We verify it.
We document it.
