LCA Sphere: Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) verification services across global programme operators

Sydney, New South Wales Jun 8, 2026 (EMWNews.com) – As more businesses focus on sustainability, there is growing pressure to clearly show how products impact the environment. Customers, project teams, and regulators now expect reliable information to support better decisions.

To support this shift, LCA Sphere is offering its EPD verification services. The goal is simple: help businesses share environmental information that people can trust.

What is Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and how does it support an EPD?

LCA is the foundation behind every EPD.

In simple terms, LCA looks at the full life of a product–from raw materials to production, transport, use, and end of life. It helps answer questions like:

• How much energy is used?
• What emissions are created?
• Where are the biggest impacts?

This information is then used to prepare the EPD.

By using LCA, businesses can present environmental data in a clear, structured, and comparable way. This makes it easier for customers and stakeholders to understand and trust the information.

Making EPDs easier and more reliable

An EPD is a document that explains the environmental impact of a product in a clear and standardised way. It helps businesses communicate performance transparently.

However, the EPD verification process can feel daunting. LCA Sphere works closely with organisations and LCA practitioners to simplify this process. By reviewing data, checking calculations, and ensuring everything aligns with programme rules, the team helps businesses move smoothly from preparation to publication.

Working across international programmes

Working across international programmes, LCA Sphere has been supporting EPD verification for leading programme operators, including The International EPD System, EPD Australasia, and EPD Global. This experience enables alignment with diverse regional requirements while maintaining consistency, credibility, and transparency across markets, ensuring that verified EPDs meet internationally recognised standards and support global comparability.

Reducing delays and avoiding rework

Reducing delays and avoiding rework is critical for efficient EPD publication. Small issues, such as missing information or inconsistencies in data, can delay approvals and lead to additional costs. LCA Sphere identifies these issues early in the process, allowing them to be resolved before submission. This proactive approach helps minimise delays, prevents repeated review cycles, and ensures a smoother, more efficient verification and approval process.

Moving forward with confidence

As expectations around sustainability continue to grow, clear and credible environmental information is becoming essential for doing business. LCA Sphere helps simplify this journey and supports you at every stage. If you are planning an EPD or need verification support, now is the right time to act.
