NCC Industry AS EPDs face 2027 renewal clock

A cluster of NCC Industry AS asphalt mix EPDs sits on the same renewal timeline. Our review of public registries shows these declarations were approved on 02 December 2022 and are valid until 02 December 2027, not January 2027. If replacements are not queued up, spec-driven projects could pivot to competitors whose asphalt mixes already carry current declarations. The fix is simple but time sensitive: line up data collection, confirm PCR fit, and refresh before specs start to drift.

What is actually expiring, and when

Most of NCC Industry AS’s asphalt EPDs form a bundled set published 02 December 2022 with validity through 02 December 2027. Examples include NCC Ab 70/100 LPG Biltransport, NEPD‑3994‑3032, and NCC Ab 70/100 Bio Pellets Biltransport, NEPD‑3986‑3025 (EPD Norway, 2022) (EPD Norway, 2022). That places the renewal window in early December 2027, not January 2027.

Which products are in this bundle

The expiring set covers typical Norwegian road mixes under NPCR 025 Part B for Asphalt, with declared unit 1 tonne. Families include AB 70/100, AG, AGB 160/220, and SKA PMB, each published in variants that reflect fueling choice at the plant (LPG, bio‑LPG, pellets) and logistics context noted in the title (biltransport or båt‑transport). The scope in the PDFs is A1–A3 plus C1–C4, with tool‑verified modeling across NCC’s plants.

Are replacements already live

As of 21 May 2026, we do not see successor NCC Industry AS asphalt EPDs beyond the December 2022 set in the EPD Norway registry. That suggests replacements are not public yet. If new declarations are in verification but not posted, specifiers cannot cite them.

Why this matters in specs

Projects working under LEED v5 and public tenders increasingly ask for current, product‑specific EPDs. When a declaration lapses, teams must fall back to conservative factors, which can quietly push a product out of contention. Keeping the EPD clock aligned with sales plans avoids last‑minute scrambles and awkward substitutions.

Competitors specifiers may reach for instead

If a gap opens, buyers will not wait. Comparable asphalt mixes with current EPDs include:

  • Veidekke Industri AS AG 16 160/220, registered 15 July 2022 and valid to 15 July 2027 (EPD Norway, 2022) (EPD Norway, 2022).
  • Peab Asfalt Norge AS Ag Bio ECO‑Asfalt, registered 27 April 2023 and valid to 27 April 2028 (EPD Norway, 2023) (EPD Norway, 2023).
  • Colas Danmark A/S GAB II 40/60, registered 20 July 2022 and valid to 20 July 2027, often accepted in Nordic tenders where EPD‑Norge listings are recognized (EPD Norway, 2022) (EPD Norway, 2022).

A quick decoder on timing

Most construction EPDs carry a five‑year validity. Back‑planning from 02 December 2027 leaves limited buffer for data pulls, verifier Q&A, and program‑operator queues, especially if PCRs or datasets have shifted since 2022. Treat the 2026 season as the make‑or‑break window for refreshing the portfolio (International EPD System, 2026).

How to keep sales out in front

Start with a light but thorough data sweep across asphalt plants, fuels, and recycled content so updates reflect today’s operations, not 2022 snapshots. Lock the PCR early, then publish through a program operator your customers already use. The fastest teams standardize plant templates and automate evidence gathering so renewals feel like a pit stop, not a rebuild. Otherwise, you’ll be stuck watching a rival roll past with a fresh sticker on the spec sheet.

Bottom line for specifiers and sellers

NCC Industry AS’s asphalt EPDs are aligned to expire 02 December 2027. Replacements are not visible yet, so the smart move is to queue renewals now and avoid ceding late‑2026 and 2027 bids to Veidekke, Peab, or Colas postings. It is definately easier to keep momentum than to win it back once a declaration goes dark.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which NCC Industry AS asphalt EPDs are approaching expiry and what do they cover

The set published 02 December 2022 includes product‑specific EPDs for AB 70/100, AG, AGB 160/220, and SKA PMB mixes, modeled with plant‑level fueling variants such as LPG, bio‑LPG, and pellets. The declarations follow NPCR 025 Part B for Asphalt with modules A1–A3 and C1–C4, declared per 1 tonne. Examples: NEPD‑3994‑3032 and NEPD‑3986‑3025 (EPD Norway, 2022).

Are replacement EPDs already available for the same NCC mixes

As of 21 May 2026, no successor NCC Industry AS asphalt EPDs are visible in the EPD Norway registry. That means specifiers cannot currently cite a newer declaration for these mixes.

What competitor products have current EPDs and are likely to be considered

Veidekke Industri AS AG 16 160/220 is valid until 15 July 2027, Peab Asfalt Norge AS Ag Bio ECO‑Asfalt until 27 April 2028, and Colas Danmark A/S GAB II 40/60 until 20 July 2027. Each is listed on EPD‑Norge and commonly used in Nordic tenders (EPD Norway, 2022; EPD Norway, 2023).

How long do construction EPDs stay valid and when should renewal start

Five years is the standard validity under EN 15804‑based programs. Begin renewal planning at least 9 to 12 months before expiry to secure data updates, verification, and publication without gaps (International EPD System, 2026).
