Congratulations, Dutypoint, on your first EPDs
Big news for building‑services specifiers. Dutypoint has joined the transparency arena with its first Environmental Product Declaration, putting packaged booster sets on the carbon map and making it easier to keep their gear in the spec instead of a last‑minute swap. Here is what launched, who verified it, and how that stacks up competitively in projects that score embodied carbon.
What Dutypoint just launched
EC3 shows one current, product‑specific EPD for Dutypoint’s VRX packaged cold water booster set, issued in March 2025 and published with the program operator EPD Hub. The description points to a family‑level declaration that covers the VRX range for commercial and industrial duty, including IE5 motors and multistage stainless pumps. The developer organization is not listed in the EC3 record we reviewed.
Why it matters in building services
Dutypoint builds packaged water‑boosting systems, tanks, and controls for space‑tight plant rooms in offices, healthcare, education, and mixed‑use projects. Getting a product‑specific EPD onto a flagship packaged booster means project teams can model real numbers instead of default penalties, which keeps the product competitive on low‑carbon briefs and LEED v5 ambitions. Their VRX range positions as ultra‑efficient with IES2 system efficiency, which fits where specifers balance footprint, energy and uptime. (VRX product overview, 2026) (dutypoint.com)
Coverage today, and what’s next
On Dutypoint’s site, the company confirms the VRX booster set is EPD‑certified as of March 2025 and notes their AirBREAK Category 5 tank and booster systems gained EPD certification in November 2025. This suggests a growing portfolio even if not all items appear in every public directory yet. (dutypoint.com)

Competitive snapshot
- Grundfos has a deep bench of product‑specific EPDs for circulators and in‑line HVAC pumps through IBU, which has become the reference path for many European pump declarations. See their MAGNA and TPE ranges for examples. (Grundfos profile on EPD Guide) (epd.guide)
- Packaged booster sets remain spotty for EPDs across large brands. Even companies with strong pump EPD coverage show thinner visibility on complete skids like packaged boosters, which creates room for newcomers to stand out when those are the products on the drawings. (epd.guide)
- As of late 2025, independent tracking did not find product‑specific pump EPDs for several Armstrong Fluid Technology lines, a signal that packaged booster EPDs are not yet universal among mainstay competitors. (Armstrong Fluid Technology on EPD Guide) (epd.guide)
Where to find Dutypoint’s EPDs
Dutypoint’s VRX product page highlights efficiency and approvals, and the company’s EPD explainer post references both VRX and AirBREAK as EPD‑certified. We did not see obvious direct PDF links from those pages on February 10, 2026. Adding a central sustainability page with downloadable EPD files, and deep‑linking to the operator record, will help buyers source files in seconds. (dutypoint.com)
Program operator, at a glance
The debut VRX declaration sits with EPD Hub, a digital‑first EPD program operator recognized by ECO Platform as of December 2025. For many manufacturers, that software‑centric workflow shortens verification cycles without cutting the rigor buyers expect. (epd.guide)
Timing tip most teams miss
March 2025 is the launch month. If an EPD goes live with the operator before it appears in global directories that specifiers use, there is often a weeks‑to‑months gap. Shortening that gap boosts findability right when bids heat up. If you want playbooks to get new EPDs listed within a day or two, reach out via the contact under this article and we can share more.
What this means in bids
Dutypoint has entered the transparency arena. In categories where packaged booster EPDs are rare, that can shift shortlists in their favor. Where rivals already publish widely for core pumps, it keeps the conversation about performance and total cost of ownership, not about missing data that triggers conservative carbon assumptions. It is progress, and it puts pressure on the rest of the field to publish or risk being the odd one out.
One small ask for visibility
Make the EPDs unmissable. Put download links on product pages, add a single source of truth in the site’s sustainability hub, and cross‑link the program operator record. Buyers should never have to email support for a file. Dutypoint is close, a few tweaks turn this into a friction‑free experience. (dutypoint.com)
