Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)

Our commitment to sustainability extends to participating in the industry-leading Australasian EPD Programme.
 
An EPD is an ISO standardised and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) based tool to communicate the environmental performance of a product or system. An EPD is voluntarily developed information and the purpose is to provide quality-assured and comparable information regarding environmental performance of products.

EPD - Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP)

Humes reinforced concrete pipes (RCPs) are manufactured across 10 factories around Australia to AS/NZS 4058:2007 Precast concrete pipes (pressure and non-pressure). The scope of this EPD is for RCPs used in non-pressure stormwater drainage applications only. Humes RCPs are manufactured with steel reinforced concrete and are available in a wide range of diameters, lengths and with varying strengths. Humes RCPs have a reference service life (RSL) of 100 years when installed in accordance with AS/NZS 3725:2007 Design for installation of buried concrete pipes.

EPD - Humes Precast and Prestressed Concrete

This EPD covers virtually all of Humes reinforced precast and pre-stressed concrete products manufactured at any of our ten factories in Australia. Our products cover box culverts, headwalls/wingwalls, sleepers, bridge girders, barriers and more. They are manufactured with steel reinforced concrete and are available in a wide range of sizes for building and infrastructure applications.
