Basic principles and recommendations for describing the dismantling, post-use, and disposal stage of construction products | Umweltbundesamt

The guideline supports the committees for the European standardization of construction products (Product TCs, Technical Committees) in establishing rules for Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) according to EN 15804. The guideline helps developing uniform specifications for the end of the life cycle of construction products (modules C and D according to the above-mentioned standard).  The publication of modules C and D closes a considerable data gap that has so far hampered the consideration of recycling and resource aspects in the planning of buildings.
