What Magnorvinduet just published
Magnorvinduet now has two product‑specific EPDs in circulation under EPD Hub, covering a fixed triple‑glazed window and a triple‑glazed sliding door. Both are declared with representative sizes and the brand’s three‑layer frame concept of interior wood, composite core, and recycled aluminium exterior. Validity runs into 2030, which gives sales teams breathing room in cycles where submittals can stretch across years.
In short, the portfolio now includes:
- Fixed triple‑glazed window, declared at 1.23 m x 1.48 m with wood interior and recycled aluminium exterior.
- Sliding door, declared at 2.00 m x 2.18 m with triple glazing and the same hybrid frame structure.
The rulebook they used
Both declarations follow EN 17213 for windows and pedestrian doorsets, a common PCR choice for Nordic and EU fenestration categories. Publishing with EPD Hub keeps comparability straightforward for buyers who already review many EPD Hub declarations in this space.

Why this matters for buyers and bids
Windows and doors are frequently screened on product‑specific EPD availability during prequal and submittal reviews. With these first entries, Magnorvinduet can be evaluated on verified numbers rather than estimates, which removes automatic penalties in many carbon‑accounted projects. Fewer penalties means fewer avoidable price fights and less last‑minute substitution, especially when a project team wants hybrid wood, composite and aluminium construction.
Competitive picture, at a glance
Magnorvinduet moves into a field with several active publishers. NorDan has a broad slate of current window and door EPDs issued through EPD Norway, spanning tilt and turn, fixed frames, and external doors. Elitfönster in Sweden carries a large set of current EPDs via EPD International AB across inward and outward opening lines. Among close Norwegian peers, Gilje Tre lists no current EPDs as of today, with previous ones expired. That puts Magnorvinduet on the board, side by side with leaders in the region, while stepping ahead of at least one local competitor on current transparency.
Scope notes that help specifiers
The declared units use standard sizes that specifiers recognize for windows and sliding doors, which aids comparison to competing models in submittal matrices. The framing build is consistent across the two EPDs, so design teams can reference a coherent material story across openings rather than mixing unrelated systems. If more variants are coming, keeping the same PCR and operator will make portfolio expansion easier to read and to spec.
Who developed the LCA and EPDs
The developer or consultant is not explicitly named in the two new declarations we reviewed. That is fine from a compliance standpoint, yet many buyers appreciate clear author and verifier naming in the PDF front matter for quick diligence. If future updates add that detail, keep it prominent.
Website visibility check
Magnorvinduet’s site highlights the environmental positioning and notes that several products have an EPD, yet we could not locate direct EPD download links as of January 6, 2026. See their product section where EPDs are referenced here (https://magnorvinduet.no/produkter/). Adding a dedicated sustainability or documentation page with clear PDF links improves trust, shortens submittal back‑and‑forth, and prevents sales teams from hunting in inboxes. Small fix, outsized impact.
What to watch next
Two EPDs is a strong opening for a brand known for hybrid wood, composite and aluminium construction. If Magnorvinduet extends coverage to additional opening types and common options, they will meet more spec patterns with fewer exceptions. That is how enviromental data turns into wins on real projects, not just press releases.
