The Environmental Product Declaration certification is granted to products that quantify and display the environmental impact throughout the entire process, from raw material extraction to production, distribution, use, and disposal.

Anticipating increased demand for products with EPD certification due to the spread of eco-friendly construction in Korea, Dongguk CM pursued domestic EPD acquisition for the Luxsteel and galvanized steel sheet product lines.

With this certification, building owners using Dongguk CM’s Luxsteel and galvanized steel sheets will receive additional points in the Green Building Certification System (G-SEED) evaluation based on the usage ratio. Obtaining green building certification can provide benefits such as relaxed building standards and acquisition tax reductions.

Following the 'DK Color Vision 2030' sustainable growth strategy, Dongguk CM plans to continue efforts such as purchasing low-carbon raw materials, improving processes, and investing in facilities.
