What Our EPDs Mean for Your Projects

You can now specify and build with absolute certainty about your carbon impact. An EPD is like a product’s nutritional label for the environment, verified to the highest global standards. It’s not a claim; it’s certified proof.

By choosing AliDeck, you are choosing:

  • Certainty for Specifiers: Robust, transparent data for your Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) and an effortless way to meet BREEAM and other sustainability targets.
  • Advantage for Contractors: An immediate, certified carbon saving for your project, helping you meet increasingly strict planning regulations and win more bids.
  • Confidence for Developers: Tangible proof of your commitment to sustainability for stakeholders and a future-proofed, more valuable asset.

The Data Doesn’t Lie: We Are the UK Leader

We have always known our commitment to sourcing and manufacturing in the UK made a difference. Now, it’s verified. Our EPDs, audited by Blue Marble and published on EPD Hub, confirm our position. The key metric is the normalised Global Warming Potential (GWP), measured in kg of CO₂ equivalent per kg of product (kg CO₂e/kg). Lower is better.

Setting the Standard: Verified Low-Carbon Aluminium

Product Line Normalised GWP (kg CO₂e/kg)
AliDeck Board (20mm) 5.60
Competitor’s Best Board 6.50
Product Line Normalised GWP (kg CO₂e/kg) Performance vs. Industry Avg. (~6.75)
AliDeck Best Performer (Eco 50 Joist) 5.58 ~17% Better
AliDeck Core Range (average) ~5.79 ~14% Better
Industry Standard Aluminium 6.7 – 6.8 AliDeck is consistently superior

Our Foundational Commitments

Built on a Foundation of Sustainability

Our market-leading EPD results are not an accident. They are the outcome of years of commitment to sustainable principles throughout our entire operation.

100% Recyclable,

High-Recycled Content

All our aluminium products are 100% recyclable. We currently manufacture using 67% recycled material and are on a mission to increase this, ensuring our products are a key part of the circular economy.

Eco-Friendly UK Manufacturing

As a proud Made in Britain member, we manufacture entirely in the UK. Our in-house, Qualicoat-certified powder coating facility uses advanced recycling and recovery systems to minimise waste and emissions, while our logistics are optimised to reduce our carbon footprint.

Engineering

Excellence

Our precision engineering and innovative design philosophy focus on optimising material usage, reducing waste, and extending product lifespan, all while adhering to rigorous UKCA/CE compliance for full traceability.

The Next Step: The AliDeck EPD & Sustainability Hub

Coming Soon: A Central Resource for Sustainable Specification

This is just the beginning. We are currently developing a comprehensive EPD & Sustainability Hub, which will provide in-depth resources, guides, and tools to help you make informed, carbon-conscious decisions for your projects. Watch this space.

Efficient Transportation

We optimise delivery routes and logistics to cut down on transport-related emissions, helping reduce our overall carbon footprint.

Carbon Footprint

Construction materials generate 11% of global greenhouse emissions. We combat this through recycled materials, local manufacturing, and energy-efficient production.

Our precision engineering minimises waste while sustainable innovation extends product lifespan and reduces environmental impact. We’re continuously developing new ways to lower our emissions further.

Engineering Excellence for Sustainability

Precision Manufacturing

Our custom extrusion process represents cutting-edge manufacturing technology. Through precise production methods, we significantly reduce material waste whilst improving operational efficiency. This attention to detail ensures every component meets our exacting standards.

Innovative Design Approach

Our engineers embrace a design philosophy that prioritises sustainability from the ground up. By carefully analysing material usage and optimising each component, we deliver superior performance whilst minimising environmental impact.
