Presto Geosystems announces the publication of the industry´s first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for geocells. This milestone reinforces Presto Geosystems’ ongoing commitment to reliable infrastructure and environmental quality.
An EPD is a transparent, objective report that communicates what a product is made of and how it impacts the environment across its entire life cycle. The EPD, based on rigorous life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology, provides a comprehensive overview of the environmental impacts associated with the production, use, and disposal of Presto Geosystems’ GEOWEB® geocell system. This independent declaration includes key metrics such as carbon dioxide performance, energy consumption and natural resource usage, all of which are vital factors influencing the overall environmental footprint of soil stabilization and erosion control solutions in civil and structural applications.
The EPD follows established international standards, including ISO 14025, lending to the credibility and consistency of the environmental data. This initiative aligns with parent company Reynolds Consumer Product’s Sustainability commitments for Green Circle certification and efforts to improve documentation for environmental impact, and to reduce emissions, CO2e and waste. By providing detailed environmental impact information, Presto Geosystems is empowering engineers, consultants, architects, and project owners to make choices that align with their sustainability goals.
The EPD for the GEOWEB system is now available for download here.
