Roto roof windows with Environmental Product Declaration EPD available

Bad Mergentheim - The Roto Designo R8 top-hung pivot window, the Roto Designo R6 pivot window and the RotoQ pivot window Q4 are now available with the Environmental Product Declaration in accordance with DIN EN ISO standard 14025 and EN 15804+A2. The EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) makes it even easier for planners, architects and building owners to calculate the environmental balance of a building and to comply with QNG or DGNB regulations for construction projects.

The EPDs, which in the case of Roto were created by ift Rosenheim and verified by an independent body, include, for example, information on the CO₂ footprint of the roof windows - from the raw materials to production and recycling over the entire life cycle. They must be renewed every five years.

The values collected for the Roto Designo R6 pivoting window, the Roto Designo R8 top-hung pivoting window and the RotoQ pivoting window Q4 underline numerous product benefits. For example, Roto timber roof windows have a particularly low environmental impact due to sustainable forestry. In addition, the PVC-U versions can be easily separated into individual materials and are therefore very easy to recycle.

The EPDs for the tested Roto roof windows can be downloaded here. The data records can also be accessed on ÖKOBAUDAT, the platform of the Federal Ministry of Housing, Urban Development and Building (BMWSB).
