EN15804+A2

EN15804+A2

It is an European standard based on ISO 14044 and ISO 14025, that provides the product category rules (PCR) for Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) of construction products.

In the Netherlands, the Nationale Milieudatabase (NMD, engl: national environmental database) further specifies this standard in its “Bepalingsmethode Milieuprestatie Bouwwerken” (BMB, engl.: Environmental Performance Assessment Method for Construction Works), which serves as the basis for ECI/MKI calculations.
