EPEA reviews product data, supply chain information, and supporting documentation, evaluates them against appropriate standards, and develops concrete, reliable claims for product communication.
What is changing?
Why act now?
The Empowering Consumers Directive (EmpCo) is increasing the requirements for environmental and sustainability claims in B2C business. In the future, general statements must be specific and verifiable.
Reliable target paths
Future promises require measurable goals, a plan, and monitoring.
Concrete evidence
Claims must be methodologically sound and scientifically substantiated.
We review existing statements on websites, packaging, product documentation, and in marketing communications. In doing so, we determine which claims should be clarified, substantiated, or reformulated.
Gathering evidence from products and the supply chain
EPEA handles communication with suppliers as needed, aggregates existing information, and evaluates the quality of the documentation.
Expert assessment of product properties
Depending on the claim, we examine factors such as material composition, recycled content, chain of custody, circularity, or environmental impact.
Prepare documentation and messaging
The results are documented in a verifiable manner. Based on this, EPEA develops proposals for precise, product-specific claims with a clearly defined scope and reference to the respective evidence.
Communicate product performance reliably
