FAQs about MRc2 :

If a company provides an EPD but it does not mention on it that it meets the ISO standards required, can we still submit it for LEED or do we need to have that verification?

Where can I find a list of products with EPDs?

Do I have to submit the full EPD with my documentation for Option 1?

If I include a product in the BPDO EPDs credit, do I also have to include it in the BPDO Material Ingredients credit?

If I include a product with an EPD in Option 1, do I have to also include it in the scope of products that are part of the Option 2 calculation?

For the twenty products with EPDs, can I count multiple products from the same manufacturer?

How do you recognize each type of EPD?

Hello everybody,

In a hotel project, we will install wallcovering in the walls that will be installed in permanence.  We have a product "BANDRA" of brand VESCOM which have an EPD Type III . Can this wallcovering  be considered as a "Product", so we can count its EPD report. 

I have come across someone who tell me that wallcoveribgs are not considered "products" by LEED. 

thanks, we will appreciate your return,

I specify that the wallcoverings is a product of wall fabric (fabric-based)

Wallcovering is a product.  You can report EPDs, HPDs, recycled content, etc.  And if you are going after the Walls category of the Low-Emitting Materials credit, the wallcovering product would have to be compliant with VOC emissions.
