Standard

This document specifies the requirements and guidance for the content, format and exchange relating to material declarations for products and accessories of organizations operating in and supplying to industries within the ISO and IEC scope.
The main intended use of this document is to provide data up and down the supply chain that:
• allows organizations to assess products against material and substance requirements,
• allows organizations to use this information in their activities related to environmentally conscious design process and across all product life cycle phases, including material efficiency and product circularity considerations, as well as considerations linked to end-of-life stages such as waste management and use of reusable parts and recycled content.
This document specifies mandatory declaration requirements and also provides optional declaration requirements. This document does not suggest any specific method or process to capture material declaration data in the supply chain. However, it provides a data format used to transfer information within the supply chain. Organizations may determine the most appropriate method to capture material declaration data without compromising data utility and quality. This document is intended to allow reporting based on engineering judgement, supplier material declarations, and/or sampling and testing.

This Technical Report investigates in the light of the implementation of the WEEE Directive
(2002/96/EC) the feasibility of deploying machine readable product identification technologies
(e.g. smart tracker chips) to fulfil the marking requirement for the purpose of implementing
producer responsibility. The product recognition shall provide information for waste stream
management (sorting, reporting and cost allocation).

Machine readable product identification technologies can be utilized during every phase of the
product life cycle of an EEE. The WEEE management is the last phase. This Technical Report
focuses on this phase only.

This European Standard EN 50693 specifies the process and requirements on how to conduct life cycle assessment in the context of environmental declarations for electronic and electrical products and systems (EEPS). In the context it defines rules for product categories (PCR) and provides guidance on how to develop corresponding product specific rules (PSR) in Technical Committees.

IEC 61406-1:2022 specifies minimum requirements for a globally unique identification of physical objects which also constitutes a link to its related digital information. This identification is designated hereinafter as "Identification Link" (IL), with the encoded data designated as IL string. The IL string has the data-format of a link (URL). The IL is machine-readable and is attached to the physical object in a 2D symbol or NFC tag. The requirements in this standard apply to physical objects: - that are provided by the manufacturer as an individual unit, - and that have already been given a unique identity by the manufacturer. This document does not specify any requirements on the content and the layout of nameplates/typeplates (e.g. spatial arrangement, content of the plain texts, approval symbols etc.).

This document specifies an aggregation process that provides aggregated environmental performance evaluation data in accordance with a given environmental performance evaluation specification conforming to ISO 20140-2, by using a set of environmental performance evaluation data conforming to ISO 20140-5.

This document does not specify any aggregation processes specific to particular implementations of manufacturing systems.

ISO 29481-1:2016 specifies

- a methodology that links the business processes undertaken during the construction of built facilities with the specification of information that is required by these processes, and - a way to map and describe the information processes across the life cycle of construction works.ISO 29481-1:2016 is intended to facilitate interoperability between software applications used during all stages of the life cycle of construction works, including briefing, design, documentation, construction, operation and maintenance, and demolition. It promotes digital collaboration between actors in the construction process and provides a basis for accurate, reliable, repeatable and high-quality information exchange.

This document provides the principles and requirements to enable environmental and technical data provided in EPDs for construction products and services, construction elements and integrated technical systems to be used in BIM to assist in the assessment of the environmental performance of a construction works over its life cycle. This document gives requirements on structuring EPD information using a data template according to ISO 23386 and ISO 23387, to make EPD data machine-interpretable and to enable their integration into information-driven design, construction, use and end-of-life stages. This document is applicable to structuring generic LCA data for use within a BIM environment, as these data are required in the absence of suitable EPD data to enable assessment of the environmental performance at the construction works level. The assessment of environmental performance at the construction works level is not covered by this document.

This technical report describes the sources and methodology to be used when preparing generic data for environmental product declarations. The methodology complies with the requirements of ISO 14040. The report supports the development of the product category rules for environmental declarations of building products, processes and services addressing the use of generic data.

Planned EN for procurement transactions, generally compatible with TC/434 data elements, to implement (EU) 2019/1780 (2019)

Semantic data model for electronic invoices, with profiles for the two major EU invoice specifications (see UBL and CII below).

This European Standard is applicable to all construction products and services related to buildings. It specifies and describes the communication format for the information defined in EN 15804:2019 for business-to-business communication to ensure a common understanding through consistent communication of information. NOTE This European Standard does not deal with business to consumer communication and is not intended for that purpose. Business to consumer communication format is planned to be the subject of a future document.

This document supports the data quality assessment and selection of data for product-level Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) according to the core product category rules of EN 15804 and for the environmental performance assessment of buildings according to prEN 15978-1 in a consistent way. It can also be used to assess and select data for the environmental assessment of civil engineering works. It defines data quality requirements with respect to temporal, technological and geographic representativeness for the data used to calculate the LCA based indicator results of the EPD and for construction works when applying EPD, life cycle inventory data or other LCA based information and generates a hierarchy to support the selection of the most appropriate data with regard to data quality. It also addresses the reporting of data quality at product and building level.
