GWP Calculation and Carbon Footprint Assessment (LCA)
From Optional to Mandatory: GWP in the New Construction Era
With the entry into force of EU Regulation 2024/3110, sustainability is becoming an essential feature of construction product performance. The GWP (Global Warming Potential) indicator is now mandatory in the Declaration of Performance and Conformity (DoPC), forming the central pillar of the future Digital Product Passport (DPP).
At Envirocert, we turn the complexity of environmental requirements into a clear, structured process for your company.
Our analysis and reporting solutions
GWP (Global Warming Potential) Calculation:
We determine the carbon footprint expressed in CO2 equivalent, broken down according to EN 15804+A2 requirements:
GWP-fossil: emissions from fossil fuels.
GWP-biogenic: carbon absorbed and released by biological materials.
GWP-luluc: the impact of land use and land use change.
LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) Studies:
We assess environmental impact across the entire life cycle, covering the mandatory stages:
A1-A3: production (Cradle-to-Gate).
C1-C4: end of life (Deconstruction, Waste).
D: Recovery, recycling and reuse potential.
EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) Documentation:
We prepare the complete data set required to publish Environmental Declarations, facilitating external auditing by independent verifiers.
Why choose Envirocert for calculating your environmental performance?
Technical expertise and methodological rigor
We don’t stop at numbers. We use calculation methodologies strictly aligned with the latest European standards and access internationally certified databases such as Ecoinvent and ÖKOBAUDAT. This ensures your products’ carbon footprint is calculated with a precision that withstands any external audit.
Preparing for the Digital Product Passport (DPP) era
Regulation 3110 emphasizes “machine-readable” data. The data we provide is not simple figures in a PDF document; we structure the results so they can be easily integrated into future Digital Product Passports and QR code labeling systems, giving you a technological edge over the competition.
Scalable solutions and dedicated support for SMEs
We understand the administrative challenges the new regulations bring to manufacturers. We offer solutions tailored to the size of your business, turning a complex legal obligation into a simplified process. We help you remain an eligible supplier in the supply chains of major sustainable construction projects.
Guaranteed legal compliance in 2026
In a rapidly changing legislative landscape, we give you the certainty that our reports meet all requirements for placing products on the market. By working with Envirocert, you can be confident that your declared GWP indicators comply with the latest delegated acts of the European Commission.
