What just launched
TROX España has published its debut EPD for a ventilation component identified as DUL30‑S‑LB/1250, verified and issued through EPD‑Global powered by EPD‑Norge. The declaration reads as a single‑product EPD rather than a broad family, which is common for a first release and a clean way to get onto project submittal lists fast.
The product category, in plain terms
While the model code is technical, DUL‑30 sits in TROX’s air distribution catalog used by MEP designers for supply and extract air. Think diffusers and terminal pieces that shape airflow in commercial interiors. TROX’s own price list groups DUL‑30 within “Unidades terminales de aire,” which aligns with how specifiers shop this category (TROX España tariff, 2024).
Why this matters in specs
Procurement teams increasingly prefer product‑specific EPDs. Where that evidence is missing, many frameworks force generic factors that lift a product’s modeled carbon. Norway’s TEK17 guidance, for example, requires a 25 percent uplift when generic values are used instead of product data, a rule that often tilts close competitions (DiBK TEK17 §17‑1, 2025) (DiBK, 2025). Even when projects are outside Norway, the logic is similar. Bring real numbers and you remove a hidden handicap.

A quick word on the operator choice
EPD‑Global is an established European operator aligned to EN 15804 and ISO 14025. It is also part of the ECO Platform network that specifiers recognize across the EU. For an HVAC component sold in Spain and beyond, publishing here helps the document travel well across borders.
Company context
TROX designs and manufactures the building blocks of indoor climate control for offices, hospitals, labs and education. The catalog spans air terminal units, VAV boxes, diffusers and grilles, silencers, fire and smoke control, chilled beams, filters and full AHUs. Getting even one of those lines on record with an EPD reduces friction for sales and gives design teams exactly what they need without extra back‑and‑forth.
How it stacks up right now
In Europe, TROX most often meets Systemair, Swegon and Lindab in air distribution. Systemair lists multiple current EPDs for AHUs and components through EPD Norway, which keeps their submittals tidy. Swegon publishes AHU and plenum‑box EPDs through EPD International with several still in force. Lindab shows EPD coverage in diffusers and ductwork families across European operators. TROX España’s first EPD puts them in the transparency arena locally and shortens the distance to that peer set.
Scope notes and what to expand next
Because the debut reads as a single‑SKU declaration, the commercial upside grows as TROX España adds product‑family EPDs for high‑volume lines many engineers reach for first. Typical next steps in this category are VAV terminals, additional diffuser families and selected AHU configurations. Family‑level scope lets sales quote across sizes with one document instead of juggling many PDFs, which saves time when submittals stack up.
Where to find the EPD today
TROX España already highlights EPD commitments on its site and points readers to downloads for product declarations. See “EPD Etiquetado Ecológico de Producto” on their website for access, plus the DUL series reference PDF hosted on TROX’s CDN, which is helpful for project binders (TROX España EPD page, DUL EPD PDF). If any product pages still lack a visible EPD link, adding it near technical downloads will boost findability alot.
Bottom line for teams watching the market
With an EPD now live in March 2026, TROX España has measurable data in play for air distribution, which removes a common reason products are swapped late in design. Competitors have been building libraries for years, but new declarations can alter that math quickly when they cover the right families. Keep the releases coming, keep them easy to find and the specs will often follow.
