EIROPLASTS enters EPDs with ventilation duct duo
First‑time EPDs are a fast pass into more specs. EIROPLASTS just published its debut declarations for plastic and metal ventilation ducts, putting core SKUs on the short list for projects that now expect verified carbon data as table stakes.
What just went live
EIROPLASTS has released two third‑party verified Environmental Product Declarations that cover its mainstream ductwork portfolio. One declaration covers circular metal ventilation ducts. The second covers plastic ventilation ducts, round and rectangular. Both were issued by EPD Hub and are valid through 2030, which gives specifiers ample runway to use them across multi‑year frameworks (EPD Hub, 2025).
The SKUs behind the labels
The metal EPD applies to galvanized circular ducts tested to class D airtightness with M1 cleanliness noted in product literature. The plastic EPD applies to rigid PVC ductwork families typically used in small to mid‑size residential and light‑commercial runs. The declarations list EIROPLASTS as the authoring manufacturer and EPD Hub as the program operator, and these EPDs was verified externally. You can view both on their site’s sustainability page (EIROPLASTS EPDs, 2025).
Why this matters for the category
Ventilation is a specs game, and ducts are the connective tissue. With these EPDs, the brand’s everyday bill‑of‑materials becomes easier to defend when projects require product‑specific declarations under emerging owner policies or LEED v5 expectations for material transparency. Teams can now compare like‑for‑like duct options without defaulting to generic penalty factors that quietly knock products out of contention.
Company snapshot, in one breath
EIROPLASTS manufactures ventilation systems and elements at scale, from fans to grilles to duct systems, serving distributors and project installers across Europe and beyond. That breadth matters because EPD coverage now extends to two of the catalog’s highest‑velocity lines, which is exactly where spec friction shows up first (Europlast company page, 2025).
The competitive picture
- Metal circular ducts. Lindab publishes multiple EPDs for its Safe and Safe Click circular duct systems, verified by EPD Hub and current through 2030. EIROPLASTS’ new metal duct EPD means bids can now be evaluated apples to apples on verified GWP and scope instead of assumptions (EPD Hub, 2025).
- Plastic and pre‑insulated ducts. Ubbink’s Aerfoam highlights “EPD certified” insulated plastic ductwork, a signal that this niche is getting documented quickly. P3’s PIR duct panels also carry an EPD in The International EPD System. EIROPLASTS’ new plastic duct EPD closes a visible gap for rigid PVC systems in day‑to‑day ventilation layouts (Ubbink Aerfoam, 2025).
What spec teams can do with this
- Lock in product‑specific impacts early. Put the EPDs into your takeoff templates so estimators and sustainability leads stop swapping in generic figures at the eleventh hour.
- Use the program‑operator scope to your advantage. Both declarations follow EN 15804+A2 with end‑of‑life and Module D reported, which helps owners compare circularity assumptions consistently when they get into the weeds.
Find the EPDs quickly
They are already live on the EIROPLASTS site under Sustainability, with direct PDF downloads for metal and plastic ducts. Bookmark this page and share it with distributor reps so submittals move faster on tight timelines (EIROPLASTS EPDs, 2025). If a product page doesnt yet link back to the EPD, add that cross‑link for one‑click access.
Bottom line
EIROPLASTS has entered the transparency arena with two high‑leverage EPDs in the exact products that drive most ventilation takeoffs. In markets where Lindab and Ubbink have already set expectations, this debut turns comparisons into conversations, not hurdles. That is how you win more specs with less drama.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which products do EIROPLASTS’ first EPDs cover?
Two declarations cover circular metal ventilation ducts and rigid plastic ventilation ducts for common round and rectangular families, verified by EPD Hub and valid through 2030. See the manufacturer’s EPD page for PDFs (EIROPLASTS EPDs, 2025).
Who is the program operator for these EPDs?
EPD Hub is listed as the program operator, with external verification noted in both declarations (EPD Hub, 2025).
How does this change competitive positioning?
Lindab already offers EPDs for circular metal ducts and Ubbink signals EPD‑certified insulated plastic duct systems. EIROPLASTS’ new metal and plastic duct EPDs let buyers compare on verified data instead of proxies, which removes a common barrier in bids (EPD Hub, 2025, Ubbink, 2025).
