Danville, VA – BLUE RIDGE FIBERBOARD, INC. is proud to announce the release of third-party verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for several of our most widely used solutions. This marks a significant milestone in our long-term sustainability initiative, designed to increase product transparency and help customers meet their environmental goals.
EPDs are comprehensive documents that disclose the environmental impact of a product throughout its lifecycle; from raw material extraction to manufacturing and beyond. Based on internationally recognized life-cycle assessment (LCA) standards, EPDs provide critical information to help designers, specifiers, and builders make informed, environmentally responsible product selections. They also contribute to green building certifications such as LEED, BREEAM, Green Globes, and others.
Providing product transparency through EPDs not only helps our customers meet their sustainability goals; it’s the right thing to do,” said Kimberly Lombardozzi, Sustainability Manager at W. R. MEADOWS, the parent company to BLUE RIDGE FIBERBOARD. “We believe in making environmentally responsible decisions and giving our customers the information they need to do the same.”
EPD’s were developed in collaboration with Sustainable Minds, using an integrative approach utilizing their LCA software, expert guidance, ISO 14025-compliant program operator services, and third-party verification from Athena Institute. This achievement reinforces our commitment to supporting environmentally conscious construction through both product innovation and transparent communication.
EPDs have been released for STRUCTODEK HD, SOUNDSTOP, PREMIUM INSULATING SHEATHING, and CANT STRIP & TAPERED EDGE – some of our most popular and high, performance products.
BLUE RIDGE FIBERBOARD, Inc. is committed to providing architects, engineers and contractors with the best quality products possible. It is the mission of BLUE RIDGE FIBERBOARD to not only offer a superior product at a reasonable price but to continue the past tradition of reliability into the low-slope roofing market and soundproofing.
