Emidat
Automates Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) generation for building material manufacturers
SaaS "climate-native product management" platform for construction material manufacturers that centralizes plant, supplier, and product life-cycle data to automate the creation of third-party-verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Also operates Emidat Atlas, a free public database aggregating 150,000+ existing EPDs, and prepares manufacturer data for the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP).

Why This Tool Exists
Building material manufacturers face a multi-step, multi-agency EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) reporting process that historically takes up to a year and costs roughly €15,000 per product, while EU regulation (Construction Products Regulation, Digital Product Passport) is pushing them to produce and maintain EPDs across entire product portfolios rather than one-off documents.
Emidat organizes life-cycle inventory data into a reusable "three-drawer" model (Plant, Supplier, Product) so a single data update propagates across every affected product, then matches materials against a database of 150,000+ supplier EPDs and nine LCI databases (including ecoinvent) to auto-generate EN 15804/ISO 21930-compliant EPDs. Generated EPDs go through independent third-party verification before publication (Emidat is an ECO Platform Publishing Partner), under an annual license that the company says cuts turnaround to about a week and cost to as low as €50 per product versus the conventional process.
