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?

NC-v4 MRc2:Building product disclosure and optimization - environmental product declarations

EPD's for architectural woodwork

Hello- As I read the v4 MR requirement for EPD's, they apply to assembled products. Since a lot of millwork that arrives on a jobsite is an assembled product (cabinet, reception desk, etc), does this mean that in order to comply with the requirement, the millwork company has to develop EPDs? Or can the millworker submit EPDs on components, like MDF or particleboard, and satisfy the requirement? Thanks-

I think it probably needs to be the finished product unless the cabinetry is site-assembled. Check out the MR section intro in the ref guide, under "Defining a Product."Also, just to be clear, no manufacturer will be "submitting" any transparency documents to the project team. ALL transparency documents must be public in order to count toward the BPDO credits. The only exception is full C2C certification, where the "disclosure" piece is covered by disclosure to a third party.
