Documentation-US

FOG & VENØ goes beyond products; we empower sustainable documentation through life cycle assessment (LCA). By applying LCA, we support builders in achieving certifications such as DGNB, LEED, and BREEAM, and can thereby document how our products impact the environment throughout their entire lifespan.

LCA

LCA stands for "Life Cycle Assessment," a method used to evaluate the environmental impacts of a product throughout its entire life cycle, from raw material extraction, production, and distribution to usage, recycling, and disposal. The purpose of an LCA is to quantify and assess environmental aspects such as energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, water use, and other resource consumptions to determine how to minimize negative impacts and enhance sustainability. LCA is often used to make informed decisions about environmental impact, product development, and process optimization.

EPD

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) provides a detailed description of a product's environmental performance based on an objective assessment, making it easy for project managers and decision-makers to compare and select materials with low environmental impact.

FAQ

As the focus on sustainability has increased, so has the need for certifications, as they establish a common framework for sustainability. The appropriate certification for a construction project can vary, and there are several certification schemes within Danish construction. These certifications are not something that we as manufacturers have or can obtain, since it is the building itself that is certified!

Wood from Responsible Forestry

Our commitment to sustainability is certified through various channels. The use of FSC® certified wood in our panels ensures responsible and environmentally conscious production.
