Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are becoming an essential tool for transparent communication of product environmental performance across Europe. Based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), an EPD provides verified data on a product’s environmental impact throughout its life cycle. ✅

As environmental transparency becomes increasingly important, more manufacturers are taking proactive steps.

👏 We’re pleased to share a completed project – an EPD prepared for HUVUD an innovative manufacturer of prefabricated building elements. The declaration was developed for HUVUD prefabricated wood-concrete walls, supporting the company’s commitment to transparent, fact-based sustainability communication.

As Jovita Babinskė, Sales Manager at Huvud Prefab, UAB, highlights:
“EPD was our choice because we want to speak about the environmental impact of our products transparently and with facts – not promises. This certificate is important for us both in strengthening client trust and in working on projects where reliable LCA data is essential.”

👉 If your company is preparing for increasing environmental requirements or looking to strengthen its competitive position in international markets, let’s talk.

Griežtėjant CPR reikalavimams ir didėjant aplinkosauginių duomenų svarbai viešuosiuose pirkimuose, EPD daugeliui gamintojų tampa ne pasirinkimu, o būtina sąlyga norint veikti tam tikrose rinkose. ✔️

Tai patvirtina ir Axioma Metering Tvarumo ir aplinkosaugos specialistė Jurgita Cvetkovienė. Anot jos, EPD ne tik didina įmonės konkurencingumą, bet ir padeda atskleisti įmonės tvarumo įsipareigojimus.

„Axioma Metering“ gamina šilumos ir vandens apskaitos prietaisus bei duomenų surinkimo sistemas. Įmonė kuria ultragarsinius sprendimus bei yra viena iš ultragarso technologijų lyderių Baltijos šalyse.

📢 The regulatory rollercoaster that started in February finally seems to have reached a landing – at least for now. The European Parliament plenary has endorsed the interinstitutional agreement on the Omnibus I amendments to the CSRD, without further changes.

❗Key CSRD scope updates:
The revised criteria now require EU companies to exceed both 1,000 employees (at the group level) and €450M in net turnover, replacing the previous “two out of three” rule.

As a result, the number of in-scope companies is expected to drop by around 85%.

➡️ What this means next:
Formal adoption and publication are expected in 2026, with the changes entering into force 20 days post-publication. Member States will have 12 months to transpose them into national law.

At Vesta Consulting, we see this as a moment to finally breathe a little. Both companies and consultants have been living in regulatory limbo for the past year. This clarity gives space to step back, reset, and come back in January with real motivation to build sustainability that actually makes sense – not just ticks boxes.

Construction markets are changing fast, and buyers expect clear environmental information from their suppliers. For manufacturers, this creates a strong opportunity to stand out and access markets that already prioritise verified product data. With new CPR updates expected soon, the demand for transparent environmental information will only increase, making now a good time to strengthen your position.

How EPD supports export growth:

🟢 Manufacturers gain easier access to markets where environmental data is already expected, such as the Nordics, Germany and Benelux. Buyers in these regions rely on clear, verified information.

🟢 EPD builds trust by providing independently verified data, which helps in international tenders and long-term supply agreements.

🟢 Preparing environmental data early strengthens readiness for upcoming CPR updates and supports compliance with emerging digital and carbon reporting requirements.

🟢 Sustainability-focused projects, including those following LEED, BREEAM or DGNB, already require EPD, creating more opportunities for manufacturers in large real estate and infrastructure developments.

If you have questions about EPD or need support preparing an EPD for your products, feel free to contact us – we’re here to help.

The new Construction Products Regulation (CPR) entered into force on 7 January 2025, bringing major changes to how construction products will be documented and placed on the EU market. However, there is one important clarification:

🟡 The obligation to provide a Digital Product Passport (DPP) will only apply once harmonised standards under the new CPR are published.

Today, no such standards exist yet – which means manufacturers are currently in the preparation phase. The first harmonised standard is expected for cement (priority product family), planned for 2027. For most other product families, standards are expected later – 2029–2030.

Priority product groups (those likely to be affected first):
- Cement and hydraulic binders
- Precast concrete & masonry products
- Structural metallic products (steel, aluminium)

If you manufacture products in any of these categories, you will be among the first required to implement DPP once harmonised standards become available.

✔ What companies should do now:
- Follow progress on harmonised standards for your product family
- Prepare internal technical documentation and digital data structures
- Review your DoP/DoPC processes
- Plan for future digitalisation and system integration

Although DPP is not mandatory yet, early preparation will significantly reduce future compliance effort. If you need support understanding how CPR and DPP will impact your products, we are happy to help.

📊 Recent data shows that gender pay gap remains stable at 13% for the third year in a row despite more women participating in the job market according to Eurostat. Underrepresentation of women in senior positions, lack of transparency in pay structures and bias in wage-setting delay the progress.

The gender employment gap narrowed slightly from 10,2 percentage points in 2023 to 10 pp in 2024. While Lithuania, Finland and Estonia lead with the narrowest gaps, Italy, Greece, and Romania still face gaps nearly twice the EU average.

👉 The EU has set to eradicate the problem and has previously introduced the Pay Transparency Directive which will take effect by 2026. It includes:

- salary transparency in job ads;
- company-level pay reporting;
- explanations for pay gaps over 5%, and
- employee access to pay comparison data.

Complementary efforts will focus on expanding access to childcare and flexible work, supporting women’s career progression and improving oversight to prevent bias.

Progress in employment is necessary – but without pay equity, it remains incomplete.

📄 BREEAM International New Construction V7 is almost here, marking a major step toward a more climate-resilient built environment. Released on July 16 and coming into effect this September, the updated scheme addresses a critical reality: the building and construction sector accounts for a staggering 37% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Achieving net zero by 2050 depends on the choices we make in building design and construction today. 🏗️

This isn’t just a technical update – it’s a meaningful push toward ESG goals. V7 is designed to help reduce environmental impact while enhancing long-term building value, performance, and occupant well-being.

📌 A key reminder:
Project registration under the current V6 version remains open for three months following the launch of V7 in September 2025. If you’re considering certification, now is the ideal time to get started.

🤝 Our team is ready to guide you through the changes, assess your project’s needs, and support your decision-making around registration and compliance.

Let’s connect and move forward – together.
