Find short answers to common concerns here. The linked topic pages explain requirements, workflows and use of the platform in detail.

Free use and paid services

Registration and platform use are free. LCA work, verification and other services still form part of the project budget. The costs page explains the components and points to the current fee schedule.

Working with internal or external specialists

Qualified internal specialists or a consultant can prepare the LCA. EPD-Online does not calculate it. Manufacturers provide product data and organise company contributions.

Multiple products and languages

Whether products can share an EPD depends on rules and data. Copying does not replace that assessment. Additional language versions must be consistent and follow the required workflow.

Missing editing functions

Check your account, project permissions and status. Not all editing actions are available during review. Submission requires the designated project responsibility.

Publication and later changes

A saved or submitted EPD is not yet published. Coordinate changes after publication with IBU. Check product coverage and validity before sharing.
