Environmental product declarations for innovative concrete and pavement products

The Hart Group, a privately-held enterprise headquartered in Smithville, Ontario, produces specialty chemicals for concrete and pavement applications. Our project aims to support the development of environmental product declarations (EPDs) for several of the Hart Group’s products. EPDs are a form of environmental disclosure, or “eco-labeling,” used for marketing purposes, that are becoming increasingly important in business-to-business (B2B) markets, particularly in the building and construction industry. The purpose of our project is to help the Hart Group stay ahead of the curve in meeting B2B customer expectations for EPDs.
