EPD tool for lifecycle perspective for aggregate production (EPD Berg 3)
Research Project, 2024 – 2025

The purpose of EPD Berg is to develop a common tool for the rock material industry that connects the actual production chain of rock materials with simulation based on proven mathematical models with European databases and other available EPD systems. The aim of the project is to release a commercial tool so that both producers and society get a common and accepted way to calculate environmental performance and interpret the environmental impact of rock material production.
