The carbon footprint of BTT’s woven geotextiles is amongst the lowest in the industry, making them one of the most sustainable solutions for civil engineering projects. An EPD shows a manufacturer's commitment to measure and reduce the environmental impact of its products and report these impacts in a very transparent way.

Construction products, like geotextiles, follow the very comprehensive European standard, EN 15804+A2. The third-party verification and approval by the international EPD® System officially demonstrates the low environmental impact of BTT’s geotextile products.

“The environmental reflex is no longer an option or a nice to have. It lies in the heart of what BTT does and what we stand for. This EPD shows that our products fit perfectly in the global drive to reduce our carbon footprint and those of our customers. The use of our woven geotextiles in infrastructure projects reduces CO2-emissions with a factor 10 compared to more conventional methods such as gravel. The official document can be referred to by our customers in bidding for tenders,” said Francis Denoo, Sales Manager, Geotextiles.
