Hi all. Does anyone know whether it is required that an EPD must contain information about the Program Operator and the specific PCR that has been followed when conducting the LCA? In our project we have received EPDs that are conducted according to the required standards and that have been verified by a third party but that use the EN 15804 standard as the core PCR and don't state any EPD program operator. Are these EPDs still accepted and if yes, can they be counted as product-specific type III declarations?

I have many doubts about this since the program operators select certain firms to verify the contents and make the LCA. An EPD by a verifier not certified by the operator would have validity?
