'Do you have an EPD?'


For a long time that question was a sustainability preference. A nice-to-have. Something a few forward-thinking project teams asked and most ignored.


This month it is different.


As of July 1, Group 2 entities in Australia entered mandatory climate reporting under AASB S2. Their Scope 3 emissions, the carbon embedded in everything they buy, becomes a mandatory disclosure from July 2027. But data collection has already started and we're now 7days in.


For construction and property companies, Scope 3 is dominated by the embodied carbon in the materials they specify. Concrete, steel, timber and internal fit-out products like wall linings.


saveBOARDย has independently verified EPDs across our full range. Every figure is negative. We built that data because we believed this compliance moment was coming.


The question procurement teams are now asking has changed.

It is no longer: 'Do you have an EPD?'

It is: 'What does your EPD say?'

We have created an online carbon footprint receipt calculator that designers, architects, engineers and clients can do the sums on our website using the data from our EPDs. Create the project, print the PDF or export the data in my 2min video below.
