The EFCA Environemntal Committee meeting scheduled on 19^th of May in Brussels will be held virtually, using GoToMeeting.

Below the time plane, provided by Think Step, concerning the EFCA EPDs:

– Think Step is currently in the step of updating the single scores for the raw materials and to generate new single scores for the new raw materials. For the coming work, this step is the most effort and time-consuming piece.

– With these updated single score values, TS will provide us, by the beginning of May, a table to calculate single scores for product formulations. The objective is then to validate whether the former worst case formulation is still the worst case.

– After this confirmation, Think Step will start to update the LCA modelling for the EPDs and update the project report and the EPDs.

I remind you that the EFCA EPDs will expire on September 2020 and, in the case of an unforeseen further delay, the EPDs’ validity may be extended by IBU.
