INDIANAPOLIS — Carrier, a part of Carrier Global Corp., has made its first Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for residential HVAC solutions in North America.
The EPD reinforces the company’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and transparency in the environmental performance of its products, a Carrier press release said.
The EPD, based on rigorous life-cycle assessment methodology, provides a comprehensive overview of the environmental impacts associated with the production, use, and disposal of Carrier’s Comfort Fan Coil and Performance Variable-Speed Compact Heat Pump, the press release said. This independent declaration includes key metrics such as CO2 performance, energy consumption, and natural resource usage, all of which have a bearing on the overall environmental footprint of the residential HVAC industry, the press release said.
“Publishing our first residential EPD in North America represents a significant step forward in our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility,” said Hakan Yilmaz, a senior vice president at Carrier and its chief technology and sustainability officer.
“Transparency is key to empowering homeowners, contractors, and building professionals to make informed choices about the products they install. This EPD not only reflects our dedication to sustainable practices, but it also provides clear, credible data to support green building initiatives.”
The EPD follows established international standards, including ISO 14025, lending to the credibility and consistency of the environmental data. This initiative aligns with Carrier’s broader strategy to invest $4 billion in the innovation and development of intelligent climate and energy solutions that reduce environmental impacts and help customers avoid more than 1 gigaton of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, the company said.
Recently, Carrier was honored as a Green Builder Media 2024 Eco-Leader for its sustainability transparency, including its publication of 48 EPDs for HVAC products globally.
By providing detailed environmental impact information, Carrier is empowering its customers to make choices that align with their sustainability goals, the company said.
