Global Warming Potential impact 

The SiOO:X products Global Warming Potential (GWP) impacts are measured by our Environmental Product Declarations - EPDs - registered with the International EPD® System, see https://www.environdec.com/home

The SiOO:X EPDs for our pigmented and unpigmented products can be accessed at

The SiOO:X products were designed to have low environmental impact - Designed by Nature - and our EPDs are a measure of this. They are founded on Life Cycle Assessments (LCA) from material extraction, through manufacturing to end of life disposal. 

Making sector comparisons with other wood coating products indicates that the SiOO:X products have lower GWP impact. With climate change now impacting our lives in so many adverse ways, making assessments of potential environmental impacts is becoming a necessity in building design and in selecting and specifying materials.

Sioo Wood Protection together with our Specification Partner Russwood www.russwood.co.uk ,who have registered EPDs for SiOO:X applied to different timber species, can work with you as you set out to minimise GWP impacts.

Our whole raison d'etre is to design, manufacture and supply products that protect the planet.
