PROSOCO’s portfolio and its EPD opportunity
PROSOCO is a familiar name on jobsite carts and submittal packages. They sell into multiple parts of the building envelope and interiors, yet their Environmental Product Declaration footprint is still taking shape. If your bid mix includes air barriers, concrete flooring treatments, or masonry care, the next few months could be decisive for spec wins that increasingly prefer product‑specific EPDs.
What PROSOCO makes
PROSOCO spans four major families: R‑Guard air and water barriers, Consolideck concrete flooring treatments, Sure Klean hard‑surface cleaners and water repellents, and masonry anchors. This is not a pure play. It is a broad specialty‑chemicals and hardware portfolio used from façade prep to interior polish. Across these lines, the total SKU count lands in the hundreds.
EPDs today at PROSOCO
As of December 19, 2025, PROSOCO’s site highlights Health Product Declarations and Declare labels, and signals EPDs for concrete flooring products as “Coming Soon.” That message appears on the Green Building page and on key Consolideck product pages like LS/CS (PROSOCO Green Building, 2025) (PROSOCO Green Building, 2025). We did not find product‑specific EPDs posted on their site for the R‑Guard line at this time.
Why that matters in bids
Project teams are moving toward verified disclosures to de‑risk embodied carbon accounting. LEED v5 was ratified in 2025 and continues to emphasize decarbonization and credible product data, keeping EPDs squarely in the conversation for materials selection (USGBC LEED v5, 2025) (USGBC LEED v5, 2025). When one option has a product‑specific, third‑party verified EPD and another does not, the non‑EPD product often faces conservative default assumptions that make it harder to win without dropping price.
A likely gap: fluid‑applied air barriers
R‑Guard Cat 5 and FastFlash are widely recognized staples. If a spec calls for a liquid‑applied air barrier with an EPD, a competitor such as W. R. MEADOWS can step in. Their AIR‑SHIELD line is published as a Type III EPD with a current validity to 2030, which can satisfy disclosure requirements on public and private jobs aiming for LEED v5 readiness (Sustainable Minds W. R. MEADOWS Transparency Report, 2025) (Sustainable Minds W. R. MEADOWS Transparency Report, 2025). That is the kind of box‑check that keeps a product in the spec when carbon targets tighten.
Product range depth and rough coverage
Given PROSOCO’s breadth, EPD coverage appears light relative to the size of the catalog. Consolideck densifiers, guards, and color systems count in the dozens of SKUs, air‑barrier membranes and accessories land in the dozens, and hard‑surface care runs into the hundreds. That scale makes prioritization crucial. Start with the R‑Guard top sellers and Consolideck densifiers that win the most submittals. Then extend to anchors if project owners begin asking for hardware declarations. It’s a missed opportuntiy to treat EPDs as a one‑and‑done PDF for a single hero product.
Competitors PROSOCO sees most often
On air and water barriers, expect Tremco, Carlisle, Henry, W. R. MEADOWS, GCP Saint‑Gobain, Sto, SOPREMA, and 3M. On concrete flooring treatments and densifiers, specifiers often shortlist Curecrete, Euclid Chemical, and Sika. For water repellents and masonry cleaners, Evonik Protectosil, Diedrich Technologies, and W. R. MEADOWS show up regularly. In anchors for new and retrofit masonry, Hohmann & Barnard and Heckmann are frequent alternates. Several of these brands already publish product‑specific EPDs in at least one of those categories, which tilts tight competitions.
What great looks like for PROSOCO
Winning teams treat EPDs like a product line, not a press release. Aim for coverage across the dominant air‑barrier SKUs and the flagship Consolideck treatments first. Use the commonly accepted PCRs for water‑resistive and air barriers or for construction chemicals so submittals land without debates about comparability. Pick a program operator aligned to your target markets and keep a simple renewal calendar so expiries do not sneak up during a bid window. We see teams move faster when data collection is handled for them, freeing technical staff to keep plants humming.
Where to watch next
The signal is clear on PROSOCO’s site that concrete flooring EPDs are near. When those go live, the next commercial unlock is R‑Guard. Closing that gap will remove a recurring reason to swap out on carbon‑sensitive projects. Keep an eye on their sustainability hub for updates and documentation you can drop straight into submittals (PROSOCO Green Building, 2025) (PROSOCO Green Building, 2025).
Frequently Asked Questions
Does PROSOCO currently publish product-specific EPDs for R‑Guard air and water barriers?
As of December 19, 2025, we did not find product‑specific EPDs posted on PROSOCO’s site for R‑Guard. The Green Building page flags EPDs for concrete flooring as “Coming Soon.”
Which competitor air barriers show EPD coverage today?
W. R. MEADOWS’ AIR‑SHIELD liquid‑applied air barriers have a Type III EPD listed as valid through 2030, which many projects accept for disclosure needs (Sustainable Minds W. R. MEADOWS Transparency Report, 2025).
How many PROSOCO SKUs are we talking about?
Roughly hundreds across four families. Use that scale to prioritize EPDs for the highest‑volume products first instead of spreading effort thinly.
Does LEED v5 still value product‑specific EPDs?
Yes. LEED v5, ratified in 2025, continues to emphasize decarbonization and credible disclosures, which keeps product‑specific EPDs commercially relevant for submittals and owner policies (USGBC LEED v5, 2025).
