One of our sustainability indicators is the contribution to the bioeconomy. This shows how high the proportion of renewable raw materials is in the manufacture of a product. On average, 94% renewable resources are used in the production of all our EGGER building products.

Our contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals
Sustainability and environmental protection plays a key role everywhere today. Anyone who builds with wood, is making an important contribution to environmental protection. Among other things, wood grows back in just a few decades, serves as a carbon storage and ensures a healthy indoor climate. In this way, we are also making a contribution to achieving the sustainable development goals (SDG) of the United Nations.
The figures of our sustainability indicators are updated annually. They make the environmental performance of each individual product transparent and easy to understand and can be found in the building products section of the EGGER website, under "More transparency" for the respective product.
We have recently updated the "EPD" (Environmental Product Declaration) of our DHF underlay board. Our environmental product declarations enable you to determine the environmental contribution of EGGER building products. This reliable database gives you more clarity and control when comparing different products and construction methods.
In order to make green building certification easy we have issued environmental and health datasheets for our building products. The documents contain externally verified product information to meet the requirements of the leading green building certification systems DGNB, BNB, LEED and BREEAM.
