Marino\WARE®'s products', Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and Health Product Declaration will help them achieve their sustainability objectives by assessing environmental impact throughout the product's life cycle.

The analysis was done according to the product category rule (PCR) for Designated Steel Construction Products and followed LCA principles, requirements and guidelines laid out in the ISO 14040/14044 standards. Thinkstep is the leader in Sustainability Performance Management--helping 40% of the Fortune 500 create business value through sustainability.
