The Construction Products Assocation (CPA) continues to develop its very comprehensive portfolio of documents on sustainability. Authored by Jane Thornback, the CPA’s Sustainability Policy Advisor, in addition to others with expert knowledge in particular areas, the Briefing Documents cover the key issues of concern to companies in the construction sector looking for information on the case for making improvements in their sustainability performance, as well as the practicalities of doing so. The documents include a vast amount of ‘need-to-know’ information, which is important for anyone in business nowadays. They also contain many links to further resources which are very useful for those who wish to research specific areas in more detail.
With the CPA’s permission, a number of the most recent documents are reproduced in the CFA Guide to Sustainability in full. These documents have all been published this year, so they are totally up-to-date and have a focus this time on EPDs. Many of the companies spoken to in the CFA Guide to Sustainability said that these are now a vital tool in evidencing sustainability credentials and are increasingly being requested by main contractors and clients, as well as architects and specifiers.
A number of these documents are also linked below:
