Spain’s sustainability landscape has evolved rapidly in recent years, driven by EU climate policy, carbon reporting requirements, and growing demand for transparent product-level environmental data. In construction, manufacturing, and infrastructure sectors, Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) are increasingly required for green public procurement, sustainable building certifications, and low-carbon material strategies. Most Spanish EPDs are developed in accordance with ISO 14025 and EN 15804, making methodological accuracy and verification critical.
Preparing an EPD in Spain involves detailed Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) modelling, reliable factory data, strict compliance with Product Category Rules (PCRs), and independent third-party verification. Given the technical complexity and the need for alignment with European markets, manufacturers typically work with experienced EPD consultants. The firms listed below represent leading EPD consultancies active in Spain, differentiated by product focus, international delivery capability, and depth of LCA expertise.
1. ERKE Consultancy
ERKE Consultancy is an international sustainability consultancy specialising in product environmental performance, LCA, and EPD certification. Founded in 2007, ERKE operates through offices in Istanbul, Dubai, and London and has delivered EPD projects across more than 15 countries, including Southern Europe.
ERKE’s consultancy model is based on standalone product EPD delivery. The firm manages the complete EPD process internally, including system boundary definition, production data structuring, EN 15804-compliant LCA modelling, PCR interpretation, EPD drafting, and coordination with accredited verification bodies and recognised EPD programme operators.
ERKE’s team includes LCA analysts, product sustainability specialists, and EPD technical authors, enabling consistent methodologies across multiple product families and manufacturing sites. The consultancy has completed dozens of verified EPDs globally for construction and industrial products such as cement and concrete, gypsum systems, insulation materials, coatings, tiles, façade components, and composite building products.
For Spanish manufacturers targeting both domestic and export markets, ERKE’s experience with internationally accepted EPD formats and cross-border verification processes is particularly relevant.

2. Ramboll
Ramboll is active in Spain through its European sustainability and environmental consulting teams. Ramboll has strong expertise in LCA and EPD development, especially for construction materials and infrastructure-related products.
In Spain, Ramboll’s EPD work is often integrated into broader sustainability strategies, carbon reduction programmes, or compliance with EU taxonomy and reporting frameworks. The firm emphasises scientific robustness and close alignment with European standards.
3. WSP Spain
WSP Global operates in Spain providing environmental assessment, LCA, and sustainability advisory services. WSP supports EPD development mainly as part of integrated environmental, ESG, or infrastructure consultancy scopes.
EPD-related activities typically include environmental impact modelling, validation of production datasets, and interpretation of EPD results for large construction or infrastructure projects. This approach suits organisations managing EPDs alongside wider regulatory and reporting obligations.
4. Arup
Arup is active in Spain through its sustainability and materials consulting teams. Arup supports EPD development primarily for technically complex products, innovative materials, or systems closely linked to building and infrastructure performance.
In the Spanish market, Arup’s EPD involvement is often associated with advanced LCA modelling, research-driven material optimisation, and integration of product data into holistic design strategies rather than high-volume product certification.
5. Mott MacDonald
Mott MacDonald has a presence in Spain, particularly in transport, energy, and infrastructure projects. The firm provides LCA and environmental analysis services that can support EPD-related data development.
Mott MacDonald’s EPD involvement is generally project-specific, focusing on material assessments, supply-chain sustainability, and environmental reporting rather than acting as a primary author of multiple product EPDs.
6. AtkinsRéalis
AtkinsRéalis (formerly SNC-Lavalin) operates in Spain across infrastructure and industrial sectors. The company offers environmental assessment and sustainability advisory services that can contribute to EPD initiatives.
In practice, AtkinsRéalis supports EPD-related work mainly through project-level LCA studies and environmental impact assessments, rather than preparing full product EPD documentation as a standalone service.
7. Linesight
Linesight is active in Spain as a construction consultancy specialising in cost management and programme advisory. While Linesight does not develop EPDs directly, it frequently works with EPD data in sustainability-driven procurement and construction processes.
Its role typically involves interpreting EPD information to support carbon-aware cost planning, procurement decisions, and ESG-aligned project delivery, complementing specialist EPD consultants.
Summary
This article reviewed prominent EPD consultants active in Spain, ranging from specialist product-focused consultancies to large multidisciplinary engineering firms. ERKE Consultancy is characterised by its dedicated focus on product-level LCA and EPD delivery with extensive international certification experience, while firms such as Ramboll, WSP, and Arup integrate EPD services within broader sustainability and engineering frameworks. Some consultants specialise in standalone product EPD development, whereas others primarily apply EPD data at project or infrastructure scale. The most appropriate consultancy depends on product type, export objectives, internal data readiness, project complexity, and available budget.
