Kastamonu Entegre: EPD coverage in one glance

What they make

Kastamonu Entegre manufactures a wide portfolio geared to furniture and interior fit‑out. Core families include raw and melamine‑faced MDF and particleboard, decorative and high‑gloss panels, laminate flooring brands, door skins, skirtings and worktops. Their site highlights thousands of décor patterns, plus accessories like edge bands, wall profiles, and specialty offerings such as QuietPan acoustic panels and SafeSurface antimicrobial finishes (Kastamonu Entegre Sustainability, 2023).

In simple commercial terms, they serve several product categories with hundreds of SKUs when colors, finishes and thicknesses are included. That breadth means spec wins are often decided by who can hand over clean paperwork fastest.

EPD footprint at a glance

We find strong coverage across wood‑based panels and flooring. There are more than twenty product‑specific EPDs spanning MDF, particleboard, melamine‑faced panels, printed and high‑gloss panels, laminate flooring, door panels, skirtings and worktops. Many of these are registered with EPD International AB and EPD Turkey, commonly using EN 15804 with PCR 2019:14 c‑PCR‑006 for wood products, with a large set valid through February 9, 2026. A newer laminate flooring EPD extends validity to July 23, 2028, showing active renewal and scope alignment (EPD Turkey, 2025).

This matters because product‑specific, third‑party verified EPDs are recognized under LEED materials credits, and many owners prefer products that simplify compliance and recordkeeping (USGBC BPDO EPD Guide, 2025, USGBC, 2025).

Where coverage shines

Panel products are well represented. We see EPDs for raw MDF and particleboard along with melamine‑faced variants, plus decorative high‑gloss and printed panels. Flooring is covered with brand‑level declarations for laminate offerings, and complementary items like skirtings are included. That spread reduces substitution risk when specs call for Type III documentation across a room‑by‑room finish schedule.

Possible gaps to watch

Based on a review of public operator libraries and the company’s catalog, we did not locate product‑specific EPDs for certain accessories and specialty items such as edge bands, wall profiles, QuietPan acoustic solutions, or the newer Compact Panel family as of November 20, 2025 (KEAS website, 2025). If these are among your best sellers in education, healthcare or office fit‑outs, it is worth closing the gap so match‑color trims and specialty boards do not face a paperwork penalty during submittals. If we missed a recently published record, we are happy to be corrected.

Why it matters. On projects tracking LEED or corporate procurement rules, items without EPDs can push teams to use conservative default values, which makes low‑friction alternatives more attractive in a tight bid. A single missing EPD can force a finish change late in CD review, which is never fun.

Who they meet in the spec lane

Common rivals in European and global interiors include Kronospan, Swiss Krono, EGGER, Finsa and Arauco. Several maintain current EN 15804 EPDs across MDF, particleboard and laminate flooring. Recent examples include Kronospan MDF and PB entries and laminate flooring sets valid to 2028 or 2029 (EPD International, 2024; EPD Hub, 2024–2025). These are credible substitutes when a team prioritizes documented options over like‑for‑like looks.

The quick win playbook for full coverage

If accessories or niche boards lack EPDs, start with the rulebook. For wood‑based interior products, c‑PCR‑006 under EN 16485 is commonly used, nested within PCR 2019:14 for construction products. Match the dominant PCR your competitors use so comparability is straightforward for reviewers. Bundle related SKUs by substrate and resin system to keep verification efficient, then publish with the operator your target markets know best. Clean, well structured primary data from one reference year will speed things up; prospective EPDs can bridge brand‑new runs, then be refreshed once a full year of data is in.

Bottom‑line for commercial teams

Kastamonu Entegre already covers the bulk of its panel and flooring business with product‑specific EPDs, which is a solid base. The remaining spec friction likely sits in trims and specialty panels that finish the room. Plug those documentation gaps and you remove an easy reason to swap out your product on a project chasing points. The cost of an EPD is often recovered by a single mid‑sized win, and the time saved by a white‑glove partner who handles internal data wrangling is worth it. Do not let a missing edge band be the pebble in your shoe.
