Tees Valley Net Zero: The Relevance of EPDs in the Composites Industry

October 24 @ 1:00 pm - 4:30 pm

Excerpt from advertisement

“The composites industry is vital in transitioning to a sustainable future, with applications ranging from renewable energy infrastructure to lightweight, fuel-efficient transportation. As the demand for environmentally friendly products and transparent sustainability reporting grows, Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) have become essential for composite manufacturers to showcase their products’ environmental performance and meet customer and regulatory requirements.

This event explores the crucial importance of EPDs in the composites industry, focusing on:

  • The role of composites in enabling renewable energy technologies, such as wind turbines and solar panels, and the importance of demonstrating their environmental sustainability through EPDs.
  • Emerging recycling technologies for composite materials and how EPDs can help communicate the circular economy potential of composites.
  • It is essential to consider composite products’ whole life cycle impact, from raw material extraction to end-of-life, and how EPDs provide a standardised way to report this information.
  • Case studies of composite companies successfully leveraging EPDs to meet customer demands, comply with regulations, and gain a competitive edge in the market.
  • Practical guidance on developing EPDs for composite products, including data collection, LCA methodology, and verification processes.
  • Through expert presentations, interactive discussions, and real-world examples, attendees will understand the value of EPDs in the composites industry and learn how to develop and utilise them effectively to support their sustainability goals and drive business success.

Why attend:

  • Understand the critical role of composites in the sustainable economy and the importance of EPDs in demonstrating their environmental performance.
  • Learn how to leverage EPDs to meet customer demands, comply with regulations, and differentiate your products.
  • Gain insights into the latest composite recycling technologies and how to communicate their circular economy benefits through EPDs.
  • Discover best practices for developing EPDs for composite products and integrating them into your sustainability strategy.
  • Network with industry experts, sustainability professionals, and composite manufacturers.

Who should attend:

  • Composite manufacturers and product developers.
  • Sustainability and environmental managers in the composites industry.
  • Marketing and sales professionals in the composites sector.
  • Researchers and academics focused on composite materials and sustainability.
  • Customers and end-users of composite products interested in sustainability performance.”
