Congrats, Winab on your first‑ever EPDs

What Winab just published

Two product‑specific EPDs now cover Winab’s core partition lines, both with a tested 47 dB acoustic rating. One profiles the standard folding wall family and the other focuses on the glass folding wall family. The program operator is EPD Hub, and the entries read as product‑family coverage suited to how these walls are configured across sizes and options.

Why it matters for specs and sales

Operable partitions live inside tight interior packages where buyers compare price, lead time, and carbon side by side. A current, third‑party verified EPD removes proxy penalties that often nudge choices toward competitors with paperwork ready. Think of it like switching from a blurry thumbnail to the full‑resolution image the decision team actually needs.

Company snapshot, fast

Winab designs and manufactures folding and glass folding walls for schools, offices, civic buildings, and meeting venues. These systems turn big rooms into smaller, task‑ready spaces without permanent construction. That is exactly where product‑family EPDs shine, since most projects configure panels to fit, not one static SKU.

Competitive picture in operable partitions

Hufcor shows current EPD coverage verified by SCS Global Services across movable and glass wall partitions, which means spec teams can already pull comparable numbers there. Modernfold and Skyfold have previously published EPDs that are currently listed as expired, a gap that gives Winab a cleaner conversation today on documentation readiness. Bottom line, Winab just caught up to the most established rival and may enjoy an edge where others let coverage lapse.

Program operator signal, decoded

EPD Hub is recognized by ECO Platform as an Established ECO EPD Programme Operator, and its EN 15804 EPDs are listed in the ECO Portal, improving discoverability across European projects. As of July 1, 2025, ECO Platform listed EPD Hub with 3,301 EPDs in its programme overview, a useful proxy for maturity at the operator level (ECO Platform, 2025). (eco-platform.org)

Timing note you can use in meetings

These EPDs went live in November 2025. If they only recently appeared in the databases specifiers check every day, that is normal. There is often a lag of weeks to months between issuance with the program operator and broad directory visibility. Teams that plan listing and cross‑listing early tend to reduce that delay. If speeding that up to a day or two on future releases is a priority, reach out and we can share the playbook.

Can we find the EPDs on Winab’s site today

We were not able to locate a public EPD download page on winab.se in February 2026. Their product pages for folding walls and glass folding walls are easy to find, so adding a visible EPD link there would make submittals faster for everyone and help sales avoid back‑and‑forth. (Folding walls, Glass folding walls). This is a small fix that pays back quickly, definately. (winab.se)

What good looks like next

• Extend coverage to adjacent acoustic ratings common on schedules, not only the 47 dB families, so estimators can match project targets without extra correspondence.
• Publish a single, clearly labeled EPD landing page that links from every relevant product page. Many spec teams bookmark once and reuse that path for years.
• For markets where ECO recognition matters, consider dual‑listing strategies so these EPDs surface in the directories your buyers actually start in. That reduces friction in LEED v5 oriented bids without changing the technical core.

The takeaway

Winab’s first EPDs are a practical win. They meet spec teams where choices are made, they neutralize proxy penalties, and they reset the competitive math against brands that let documentation expire. Keep the momentum going and the next RFP conversation gets simpler: here are the numbers, here is the fit, here is the lead time.
