EPDs for Single-Ply EPDM in Europe, the data guide

The EPDM roofing snapshot for Europe

Over the last five years, Europe saw 23 current EPDs for single‑ply EPDM roofing and adjacent EPDM waterproofing membranes, published by 8 manufacturers and 5 program operators across 6 distinct PCRs. That is a small but active category that rewards timely renewals and smart PCR selection.

SealEco AB, Holcim’s Elevate line, and Dahl Sverige AB account for most of the activity, with additional entries from Pandrol, DAFA A/S, EVTM, PRIMEVERE, and VOLTECO S.p.A.

Momentum by year

A steady drumbeat with one odd lull. Releases dipped in 2024 and picked up again in early 2025.

Year	EPDs issued
2021	5
2022	5
2023	8
2024	0
2025	5

If your sales team heard that architects were waiting on enviromental paperwork, this timeline explains why 2025 conversations warmed up again.

Program operators manufacturers actually use

Five operators appear in this category. EPD International AB leads with 14 EPDs used by 3 manufacturers. ASTM International hosts 5 EPDs from a single manufacturer. INIES has 2 EPDs used by 2 manufacturers. EPD Italy and EPD Hub each show 1 EPD used by 1 manufacturer.

This split matters for recognition and market access. EPD International AB is the common currency in pan‑EU specs, while ASTM entries can still be helpful when cross‑listed in global portfolios. INIES and EPD Italy are strong for France and Italy respectively when national databases are in play.

Manufacturer leaderboard

The competitive set is tight. SealEco AB tops the list with 7 EPDs, Holcim follows with 5, Dahl Sverige AB with 4, and Pandrol with 3. DAFA A/S, EVTM, PRIMEVERE, and VOLTECO S.p.A. each contribute one declaration. If you are launching new EPDM lines, this is the group buyers compare you to in credential completeness and freshness.

PCR choices that actually show up in specs

Most European EPDM EPDs rely on EN 15804+A2 based rules, often via “PCR 2019:14 Construction products (EN 15804+A2) (1.3.3).” A smaller share uses a product‑specific “Single‑Ply Roofing Membranes” rule set. A few legacy or national additions still appear and will drive 2026 renewals.

PCR name	EPDs	Latest expiry
PCR 2019:14 Construction products (EN 15804+A2) (1.3.3)	11	Aug 30, 2028
Single‑Ply Roofing Membranes	3	Feb 21, 2030
PCR 2012:01 Construction products and services (EN 15804:A1)	3	Feb 8, 2026
Sustainability of construction works, national addition to NF EN 15804+A1	2	Oct 10, 2026
EPD Hub Core PCR v1.0	1	Sep 28, 2028
Core Product Category Rules	1	May 30, 2027
Unknown PCR	2	Feb 21, 2030

If you still carry A1‑based EPDs, budget a method shift to A2 rules in your next renewal cycle. Picking the common PCR reduces apples‑to‑oranges comparisons and speeds review by procurement.

Renewal radar through 2030

Here is how expiries cluster for current declarations. This view is useful for sales and bid planning, since a large share of the market will refresh studies at the same time.

• 2026, 5 total (A1‑based and a French national addition drive this wave, earliest Feb 4, latest Oct 10)
• 2027, 7 total (six tied to PCR 2019:14 v1.3.3, latest Sep 28)
• 2028, 6 total (mix of PCR 2019:14 and EPD Hub core, latest Sep 28)
• 2029, 0 total
• 2030, 4 total (product‑specific Single‑Ply Roofing Membranes plus two marked as unknown PCR, latest Feb 21)

Teams with 2026 expiries should prioritize data collection now to avoid a spec gap. For 2027 clusters, consider staggering renewals by product family so marketing always has fresh assets in‑market.

The most recent EPDM EPD in this set

Holcim’s Elevate RubberGard EPDM 60 mils posted on Feb 21, 2025 with ASTM International under the Single‑Ply Roofing Membranes PCR. It is valid to Feb 21, 2030. If you sell into multi‑region portfolios, this is the benchmark many buyers will see in portals.

How often do teams use an EPD consultant

Seventeen of the 23 EPDs in scope were produced with a third‑party EPD service provider, roughly 74 percent. That aligns with what we see across membranes, where hands‑on data wrangling and site coordination decide timelines. If you want a white‑glove path that removes internal drag and still publishes with your preferred operator, an EPD consultant like Parq is built for that.

Notably absent manufacturers in EPDM single‑ply EPDs for Europe

Our scan as of Jan 21, 2026 did not find Europe‑scoped EPDM single‑ply EPDs for several large names that are active in membranes. Paul Bauder GmbH shows EPDs for FPO systems and insulation rather than EPDM. IKO in Europe lists PVC or other systems in this window. Soprema’s entries here are insulation focused. Sika in Europe shows many EPDs, including an EPDM hybrid façade membrane, but not EPDM single‑ply roofing in this data slice. Carlisle has EPDM EPDs published through ASTM that are often US anchored, which explains why they do not show in this Europe‑labeled cut.

Absence in this table does not mean a product lacks documentation. It often means a different category, plant scope, or national program was used, which changes where it appears in public registries. If you compete with any of the above, this is an opportunity to stand out with product‑specific EPDM declarations tied to EN 15804+A2.

Picking the right PCR and operator in 2026

Start with the competitive norm. For EPDM, EN 15804+A2 via PCR 2019:14 is the safest default when your direct peers use it. Consider the Single‑Ply Roofing Membranes PCR when you want tighter comparability among membranes and a clearer story for A1 to C4.

Operator choice is a strategic distribution decision. EPD International AB offers broad EU recognition and easy national database ingestion. INIES or EPD Italy can be valuable when France or Italy is the primary market. ASTM can still serve multi‑region sellers when customers accept it in their workflows. The fastest path is to decide where your product is specified most often and publish there first, then cross‑list if helpful.

What this means for winning specs

Specs that require EPDs use conservative defaults when a product lacks a declaration. That default can make your product look heavier on paper than it is, which makes replacement more likely late in the bid cycle. Having a current, product‑specific EPD cancels that penalty and removes a common objection so you are not forced to discount on price alone.

One more thing

This analysis is based on the global public registry most specifiers use, and on our own reconciliation of manufacturer portfolios. Some late‑2025 releases may still be loading in public portals, so a handful might not be visible yet.
