The Product Environmental Footprint is the initiative proposed by the European Commission to unify the different existing environmental product accreditation schemes into one. The system is similar to Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) in that it is based on the performance of an LCA and the publication of the results, but in this case, a specific LCA methodology has been defined and must be applied in all cases. The environmental impact categories to be assessed have also been defined, along with a specific methodology for the calculation of a single indicator that aggregates the different impact categories assessed. The European Commission is intensively promoting this scheme and hopes it will become the reference for environmental product accreditation in the European Union in the coming years.
