What’s expiring in December 2026
Two Weber Sweden declarations are set to hit their validity end date on December 22, 2026.
- weber concrete impregnation. Hydrophobic, silane‑based treatment for concrete surfaces. Valid to 22 December 2026. EPD ID NEPD‑3291‑1936 (EPD Norway, 2021) (EPD page).
- weber concrete impregnation creme. Thixotropic silane cream for concrete, classified to EN 1504‑2. Valid to 22 December 2026. EPD ID NEPD‑3292‑1937 (EPD Norway, 2021) (EPD page).
Do replacements exist already
As of April 21, 2026 we do not find newer EPDs published for these two products on program‑operator registries or on Weber’s product pages, which still reference the 2021 issues and 2026 validity dates (EPD Norway, 2021) (Weber product page). If Weber publishes replacements, they will likely appear first on EPD Norway or linked from the product documentation hub on weber.se.
Why this gap matters for specs
Expired EPDs typically cannot be counted toward EPD credits in LEED v5 or public procurement checklists that call for current Type III declarations. That means a product can remain technically suitable yet lose its paperwork passport. Teams under time pressure will default to products with an active EPD to avoid rework in submittals. Sounds boring, but it moves specs.

Likely substitutes with current EPDs
If renewals are not in place by December 2026, specifiers are likely to pivot to hydrophobic concrete treatments with active declarations.
- StoCryl HG 200. Hydrophobic gel impregnation for concrete, EPD valid to January 31, 2030 (EPD Norway, 2025) (EPD PDF).
- Jotun Siloxane Acrylic Primer. Silane‑siloxane primer that forms a hydrophobic barrier on concrete, EPD valid to March 4, 2030 (EPD Norway, 2025) (EPD PDF).
Both are used to reduce water ingress and chloride uptake on mineral substrates, addressing the same practical need on bridges, parking decks, and exposed slabs that Weber’s products target.
What to watch inside the EPDs
- Scope alignment. The Weber entries and the competitive options all sit under construction‑chemicals PCR frameworks. Verify the declared unit, modules, and EN 1504‑2 references are comparable so you are not mixing apples and dragonfruit.
- Geography. The Jotun record is produced in the UAE and is valid globally. Transport modeling and energy mixes can shift A1–A3 results materially across regions, so read the A3 electricity footnotes before you benchmark numbers against Nordic production mixes (EPD Norway, 2025).
Renewal timing that protects pipeline
Most operators validate product EPDs for five years. When a declaration is eight months from expiry, teams that start renewal now keep options open for method improvements, verifier dialogue, and any PCR changes that nudge inventory data. Waiting until the last month turns a marathon into a last‑minute sprint and risks a visibility gap in EC databases.
Where to find Weber’s EPD info
- Weber’s EPD explainer and product‑document library for Sweden lists current declarations and links them from each product page (Weber Sweden, 2026).
- Direct product documentation for weber concrete impregnation creme includes EN 1504‑2 classification details and links to the EPD PDF (Weber Sweden, 2026) (product page).
Commercial takeaway
If these two surface‑protection EPDs are not renewed by December 22, 2026, specifiers may switch to Sto or Jotun to keep submittals clean. That is avoidable. Line up data pulls now, confirm the reference year, and lock a verification window. Your sales team will thank you later, promise.
