The Gypsum Association has completed the development of a product category rules document for North American gypsum boards. The intended application of the PCR is to provide a common set of specific rules, requirements and guidelines for developing ISO 14025 conformance Type III environmental product declarations for North American produced gypsum board products and to specify the underlying requirements of the life cycle assessment in conformance with The International Organization for Standardization 14040 series of LCA standards.

According to Michael Gardner, executive director for the Gypsum Association, “As an industry we are excited to be at the forefront of industrial sustainability reporting. Our members take a serious approach to their individual and collective environmental responsibility. We view the creation of a PCR as one more positive step in that process.”
