What is expiring in December 2026
Four LINTEX AB EPDs reach the end of their validity window in December 2026. The affected products are wall whiteboards and mobile glass boards with textile backs, both common in education and office fit‑outs.
- AIR wall whiteboard S‑P‑04560, valid until 2026‑12‑22 (EPD International, 2026) (EPD International, 2026).
- AIR wall whiteboard NEPD‑4173‑3409, valid until 2026‑12‑15 (EPD Norway, 2022).
- MOOD FABRIC MOBILE S‑P‑04947, valid until 2026‑12‑15 (EPD International, 2026) (EPD International, 2026).
- MOOD FABRIC MOBILE NEPD‑4179‑3408, valid until 2026‑12‑15 (EPD Norway, 2022).
These dates are pulled from the respective program operator listings that host LINTEX’s current declarations. See product context on LINTEX’s site for line details, for example Air Spaces and Silk Spaces pages that note EPD IDs (Air Spaces, Silk Spaces).
Are replacements already live
As of April 20, 2026, no newer replacement EPDs for AIR or MOOD FABRIC MOBILE are visible in operator libraries. That means a time‑boxed window to renew on updated PCRs and keep these staples spec‑ready without interruption.

If not renewed, where might specifiers pivot
When a specific model’s EPD lapses, sepcifiers usually stay within the same function and form factor.
- Abstracta Agile, a mobile media and writing screen with a current EPD through 2029‑12‑19 (EPD Norway, 2024) (EPD Norway, 2024).
- Götessons ScreenIT A30 desk and floor screens, current through 2028‑06‑07 (EPD International, 2023) (EPD International, 2023).
- Claridge Mobile Glass Markerboards, current through 2030‑04‑24 (SCS Global Services, 2025) (SCS, 2025).
Each offers comparable function in open‑plan offices, classrooms, and project rooms where an active EPD is a procurement checkbox.
What stays covered inside LINTEX’s range
LINTEX continues to hold a broad bench of current EPDs across writing boards and acoustic partitions. Recent examples include Frame Wall, Flow Mobile, Boarder Textile, and Edge variants listed with EPD Norway. Their sustainability overview confirms the company publishes third‑party verified EPDs across major SKUs, which helps maintain specification continuity while individual models renew (LINTEX climate impact page).
Why the December window matters
Most construction EPDs are issued with a five‑year validity period defined by program operator rules, after which they must be reviewed or republished to remain current in procurement workflows (EPD Norway General Programme Instructions, 2024) (EPD Norway, 2024). If a validity date passes during prequal or submittals, teams often swap to competing SKUs with active declarations. Our take is simple, treat the EPD date like a product’s sell‑by.
Renewal playbook that avoids last‑minute scrambles
- Confirm reference year and data owners now, not after summer holidays. Whiteboards and mobile screens are material‑heavy, so upstream bill‑of‑materials and coatings data tends to drive the footprint.
- Pick an operator aligned to target markets, then check the applicable PCR and any A2 rules to avoid rework later. Short summaries here help as a primer (ISO 14025, explained).
- Lock a publication slot several weeks before bids that matter. Verification calendars fill up fast in Q4.
The near‑term call for LINTEX watchers
The expiring four sit in two high‑spec categories where EPDs are commonly requested. There is still time to renew and keep project pipelines smooth, or to steer buyers toward other LINTEX boards that remain covered. If a gap does form in December, expect Abstracta Agile, ScreenIT A30, and Claridge’s mobile glass markerboards to appear more often on schedules that demand current EPDs.
