These templates serve as voluntary best practice tools for developing EPDs.
Please note: Templates do not override any mandatory requirements outlined in the applicable Product Category Rules (PCRs).
EPD verification templates
For construction products, the use of a mandatory verification report template is required to ensure compliance with EN 15804.

EPD internal follow-up report
This is a voluntary template for supporting the documentation of internal follow-up procedures during an EPD’s validity period. This procedure helps monitor changes that may necessitate an EPD update. The rules are defined in the General Programme Instructions (GPI); the template itself does not introduce any new requirements beyond those specified in the GPI.
Excel templates for machine-readable EPDs
Below you can find downloadable Excel templates for use on the EPD Portal to provide machine-readable LCA data, mandatory for construction products and available as an option for all other product categories.
