EN 15804 (Sustainability of construction works)

EN 15804 is a European standard that provides guidelines for assessing the environmental impact of construction products and their life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal or recycling. It helps manufacturers report on sustainability by standardizing how environmental data is collected and shared. This enables architects, builders, and consumers to make more informed, eco-friendly decisions by comparing products based on their true environmental performance across stages like manufacturing, use, and end-of-life. Overall, EN 15804 promotes transparency and consistency in sustainability reporting within the construction industry.
