In order create to a data record for the official German ÖKOBAUDAT building materials database it is a prerequisite that the EPD has been created in the EPD online tool and that it has already been published. Please note that the data records must first undergo an initial evaluation by the Ministry before they can be published in the database. ÖKOBAUDAT updates take place at regular intervals, meaning that new EPDs will not be listed immediately, but only with the next update. The transmission of data records to ÖKOBAUDAT is free.
The automatic transfer of EPDs to ÖKOBAUDAT via the IBU is not possible, since the individual declaration owner is also the owner of the EPD and must actively agree to publication in ÖKOBAUDAT.
