Certifications

Green building systems such as DGNB, BNB, LEED, BREEAM or WELL place comprehensive requirements on the pollutant content of all installed products. If a product does not meet these requirements, it cannot be used in the project.

BEG funding

Since the adjustment of BEG funding, not only the usage phase, but the entire life cycle has been taken into account. Sustainable materials are therefore a prerequisite for funding!

EU taxonomy

The EU taxonomy is the EU's classification system for sustainable activities. The criteria “DNSH environmental pollution” and “DNSH water” contain specific requirements for various building materials that must be met in order to mark a building as “sustainable”.

The solution: EPEA's ProCA compliance declaration

All questions about sustainability requirements answered at a glance.

  • Architects/planners
    They can use the product immediately, as they can be sure that the planned products meet the requirements of the project.

  • Contractors/construction companies
    They can use the product immediately, as they can be sure that the planned products meet the requirements of the project.

  • Sustainability consultants
    They can immediately approve the product for use, as they receive a transparent and comprehensible overview of the product properties.

  • Program operators
    Like the DGNB, BBSR, USGBC or BRE, you can be sure that the product has been rated correctly, as it is always rated based on the same rules.

How does ProCA work?

ProCA is a fully automated web service, which calculates compliance with sustainability requirements based on product characteristics and has compliance declarations generated.

The service can be easily accessed by sending product data from your internal PIM system, any other database, or even from Excel spreadsheets.

All you have to do is send all relevant product data. ProCA calculates from this in a matter of seconds Whether the product is compliant or not and send back the result as an answer.

This makes product reviews for the first time 100% objective and unequivocally. No matter who uses the service — everyone gets the same results.

How can compliance declarations be used?

The PROCA declarations provide added value in two different ways:

1. Integration with planner platforms
Our cooperation partners Heinze, Madaster and BIM&more integrate the PROCA data directly into their platforms at the manufacturer's request. As a result, your products and their sustainable properties are directly visible to the planner and your products are selected more quickly in the project.

2. Integrate with your website
Similar to the planning tools, the results can also be integrated directly into your website. In this way, anyone interested in your product can find the declarations of conformity directly on the website, without the need for a further request.

3. As proof of direct inquiries
Sales representatives of product manufacturers are regularly confronted with inquiries about sustainability data by their customers. In order to be able to answer these questions, there is a considerable amount of communication effort. With PROCA compliance declarations, you can answer all questions that arise directly with a document.

Respond to inquiries about sustainability data individually as required.
Independent, published compliance declarations
Time-consuming classification
Manual classification of products requires extremely time-consuming familiarization with the complex requirements of the systems.
Minimized effort when evaluating your own products:
Don't waste time reading into complex building certification systems to rank your products. We've already done the work for you!
Classification by internal employees without experience
The manual classification of products requires extensive experience. In addition, ratings published by manufacturers themselves are not seen as trustworthy.
Independent, trustworthy evaluation by EPEA:
With the independent methodology of EPEAS ProCA, you create credibility with planners.
Flood of emails to coordinate requirements:
Approving a product for use often results in endless coordination chains between auditors, construction companies, distributors, and product developers.
Know what planners need:
EPEA's ProCA shows you which product data planners need from you — simple, structured and BIM-compatible.
In case of doubt, products are sorted out:
If proof that the requirements have been met cannot be provided promptly, the product is quickly discarded and another one is used.
Provide planning security:
Planners need to be sure that the products meet all requirements! EPEAS ProCA makes this clear and transparent.
Information stored inaccessible:
If the documents are not available to planners in their usual working environments, the products will not be considered.
Visible where decision makers work:
EPEA's ProCA is not a separate platform, but is integrated into the platforms in which planners work on a daily basis. This makes your products visible!
