T/GDGM 0017-2021 Product Life Cycle Assessment Technical Specification Microcomputer (Product Type Rule)
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the requirements, methods, and content of the Type III environmental declaration (EPD) for the life cycle assessment of microcomputer products. This document applies to the life cycle assessment of microcomputer products, including desktop microcomputers (including all-in-one desktop microcomputers) and portable microcomputers. Other similar products can be implemented with reference to this document. Main technical content: The technical specifications for product life cycle assessment, internationally known as product category rules (PCR), specify the principles, methods, and techniques of product life cycle assessment, as well as a set of rules, requirements, and guidelines for issuing Type III environmental declarations for one or more product categories. Type III environmental declarations are also known as environmental product declarations (EPD). This document provides requirements for the indicator parameters in Type III environmental declarations (EPDs). Type III environmental declarations (EPDs) prepared in accordance with this document contain life cycle environmental information for products produced by specific manufacturers. On the one hand, they can provide reliable and comparable environmental information for purchasers to choose environmentally friendly products; on the other hand, they can also provide data support for manufacturers to continuously improve the environmental performance of their products. Organizations proposing Type III environmental declarations (EPDs) should ensure that the data are independently verified by third parties to increase the accuracy and credibility of the reports.
