Product Category Definition and Description

Guidance

Guidance: explains or advises; not assessed.

Outside the product view

This clause sits outside the product view: it is not a product requirement, so lists and comparisons of product requirements leave it out.

Klar Cite summary

The environmental product declaration must include product category definition and description. It is guidance rather than a condition of the credential. An independent verifier checks the declaration before it is published.

International EPD System·clause 2.2.1·pp.7-8
