ResumoThe Beaulieu International Group has established a transparent way to communicate the environmental impact of their products. Via Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), third party verified certifications and by following ISO 14025, the impact of the commercialized geotextile engineered solutions are calculated and presented to users. These show a clear advantage of using innovative products such as UltraForce staple fibers for non-woven geotextile fabrics or Beaulieu’s woven technical fabrics, evidenced by a reduced global warming potential (GWP), dematerialisation and increased product longevity.
