Choosing a Program Operator: EPD Hub vs. International EPD System

Updated yesterday

Overview

One Click LCA’s Pre-verified EPD Generator supports two primary Program Operators: EPD Hub and The International EPD System.

Both operators comply with the following major standards:

  • EN 15804+A2

  • ISO 14025

  • ISO 14040/44

Global Acceptance

Because both operators comply with these standards, EPDs published through them are generally accepted by any certification program in Europe and internationally that requires standard compliance.

In most cases, the physical location of your manufacturing or where the product is used does not limit your EPD's eligibility, provided standard compliance is met.

Country-Specific Exceptions

Some countries have local regulations that require specific tools or Program Operators. If you are targeting the following markets, you may need to use a specific One Click LCA tool:

  • France (INIES or PEP): Please see our guide on the One Click LCA EPD Generator for French Regulations.

  • Netherlands (NMD): We offer a dedicated tool for compliance with the National Environmental Database (NMD).

  • Belgium: Specific local regulations may apply.

Tool Availability & Add-ons

The standard license typically includes the EPD Hub tool. The following are available as add-ons:

  • Pre-verified EPD Generator for The International EPD System

  • Tools for NMD (Netherlands)

  • Tools for INIES/PEP (France)
