Is carbon reporting mandatory for concrete producers?

Is Carbon Reporting Required?

Carbon reporting requirements vary by region and project type, but the trend is clear: requirements are expanding rapidly worldwide.

United States

Buy Clean policies at the state and local level already require EPDs for many public works projects. Private developers — particularly large corporations with sustainability targets — are also increasingly requesting verified EPDs. California is among the most active states for these requirements.

Europe

Europe is moving toward requiring verified carbon data for many construction products under CPR (Construction Products Regulation) revisions and the planned Digital Product Passport (DPP). Timelines are evolving, but the direction is clear.

Global Outlook

Different regions and programs are phasing in product-level carbon reporting at different speeds. Producers with their own verified, product-specific EPDs are best positioned globally — these EPDs work across states, countries, and programs, and help you stay compliant no matter how requirements evolve.
