What is an FDES?
Drawing up an FDES (Environmental and Safety Declaration Sheet) is governed by standard NF EN 15804+A2 and its national complement.
This declaration, drawn up under the responsibility of the manufacturers
is based on the results of the Life Cycle Assessment of their product.
It summarizes the characteristics of a product for all phases of its life cycle :
A1- Raw materials
A2- Raw materials transportation
A3- Production
A4- Transporting the product to the installation site
A5- Implementation
B1 to B7- Processing
C1 to C4- End of life
FDESs can be :
> Individual when they concern a single manufacturer.
> Collective when they concern several manufacturers.
French regulations require environmental declarations to be verified by an independent third party.
