EPD-calculated and responsible products for residential ventilation

The products of the LINE and RINO selections now have EPD environmental product declarations. Ventilation products with a carbon footprint are now also available for architects, interior designers, and people building and renovating their own house. Preference for sustainable development has been a rising trend for several years, and it is clearly continuing.

In building services engineering, there is a general need to combine visual looks, responsibility and technical performance. Although climate impacts are a substantial part of responsibility, it also means, for example, understanding the origin of the materials and the manufacturing conditions of the product. Interior design professionals and architects can use the information regarding emission calculations in their work, and guide the customer in making responsible choices.

“Although environmental reports are important for customer-oriented business, they also bring us many lessons. With the help of EPD’s life cycle assessment, we can identify ways to improve our operations and thus reduce the carbon footprint of the products,” commented Emma Piha, a responsibility expert. Our measures focus on sustainable raw material choices, optimizing production, minimizing waste material, streamlining logistics, and favoring local partners.

The possibilities of new materials were taken into account in the development of the LINE collection from the very beginning, and sustainability was especially important in decision-making. After consideration, Accoya pine was chosen as one the materials, in addition to opal glass and traditional painted steel. Accoya® offers the construction industry an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative. The raw wood is obtained from sustainably cultivated, certified pine forests. LINE Accoya is also a carbon-neutral product.
