Concrete EPD Explorer

Compare concrete products by embodied carbon across the full EN 15804 life cycle — stage by stage, not just one headline number. Filter by compressive strength and manufacturing location, and see where data is declared versus not declared.

Every carbon figure traces to its source EPD and page. A stage shown as n.d. is not declared — unknown, not zero — so whole-of-life totals that omit stages are labelled partial. Data was extracted from 20 EPD PDFs; open any product to see the per-module figures and source pages.

20 of 20 products · sorted by upfront (A1–A3) carbon, lowest first. Every product declares A1–A3, so that column is directly comparable; later stages vary by EPD.

Life-cycle comparison

GWP total, kg CO₂e per declared unit (1 m³). Bars sum only declared modules A1–C4; module D (a recycling credit beyond the system boundary) is shown separately and never added in.

Read with care — not directly comparable:

  • Selected products declare different life-cycle stages — only the modules every product declares (at least A1–A3) are directly comparable; whole-of-life totals are not.
