Kelly Taylor presents at International EPD Stakeholder Conference
22nd Nov 2018
Australasian EPD Programme Manager Kelly Taylor recently attended and presented at the International EPD Stakeholder Conference.
An annual event – the Conference is a chance to meet face to face with International EPD Secretariat and hear the latest developments on EPDs around the world.
This year the stakeholder conference welcomed more than 65 participants from 17 countries. The presentations and panel discussions focused on two main themes:
- After the pilot phase – what’s next for EPD and the Product Environmental Footprint (PEF)
- Going mainstream: creating EPDs at a large scale
Kelly presented on EPD developments in Australia and New Zealand including our forthcoming logo use policy. She heard from companies producing multiple EPDs through Process Certification and is now keen to support companies in Australasia to do the same.
