Today, EPDs are an established part of the company\u2019s sustainability efforts. As the validity period of the previous declarations now comes to an end, Weland is taking its work a step further by developing six new product-specific EPDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An EPD provides a documented assessment of a product\u2019s environmental impact and serves as a third-party verified basis for climate calculations in the construction industry. By reporting climate data for different product groups, it becomes easier for stakeholders in the construction and property sectors to make informed material choices at an early stage of the building process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is important to create transparency and give customers the opportunity to track a product\u2019s environmental impact, from raw materials to the finished product. Our products are made from steel that can be recycled and used as raw material in new products,\u201d says Mattias Andersson, Marketing and Sustainability Manager at Weland AB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Climate Data for Six Product Groups<\/strong><br>The six new EPDs cover spiral staircases, straight staircases, sectional railings, ramps, grating and anti-slip grating. Hot-dip galvanising is included in the manufacturing process, and the climate impact is reported using, among other indicators, the key figure GWP-total A1\u2013A3. This covers emissions from raw materials, transportation and manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the GWP-total A1\u2013A3 value for Weland\u2019s spiral staircases is 2.09 tonnes of CO\u2082e per tonne of product, compared with 2.24 tonnes for grating and 2.14 tonnes of CO\u2082e per tonne of product for sectional railings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Demand for verified climate data is increasing as more companies need to report their climate impact for sustainability reporting, procurement processes and internal climate targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe clearly see that the requirements for climate data are increasing, and we continuously work to improve the quality of our calculations. Having more product-specific Environmental Product Declarations also gives us a better basis for our ongoing sustainability efforts. Our goal is to reduce the climate impact of the products we manufacture,\u201d says Mattias Andersson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Spiralv-staircase_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Spiral staircases<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/epd-JOS-spiral-staircase.pdf\">EPD Spiral staircases JOS<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Straight-flight-staircase_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Straight flight staircases<br><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Steel-grating_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Gratings<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Railing_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Railings<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Ramps_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Ramps<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/EPD-Fire-extinguish-grating_en.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EPD Fire extinguish grating<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Published:<\/strong>\u00a02026-11-03<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div style=\"height:145px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-30938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1-176x300.jpg 176w, https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1-602x1024.jpg 602w, https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1-88x150.jpg 88w, https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1-768x1306.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weland.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/MattiasAndersson_73A0490-1-904x1536.jpg 904w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Mattias Andersson<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:0px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Weland was an early adopter of Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its products.
