MxPro 5 panels from Advanced achieve Environmental Product Declaration

17 March 2026

IN AN industry first, the MxPro 5 four-loop fire alarm control panels designed by Advanced now hold an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD), providing independently verified data on the products’ environmental impact across their full lifecycle.

Issued in accordance with EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 and ISO 14044/14025, and verified by BRE Global, the EPD delivers transparent and standardised environmental performance data to support sustainability‑focused specification and whole‑building assessment.

Environmental Product Declarations are increasingly used across the construction and building services sectors to provide comparable and verified data on a product’s environmental impact. Developed using a lifecycle assessment, an EPD quantifies impacts across each stage of a product’s life, from raw material extraction and manufacturing all the way through to transport, use and end‑of‑life treatment.

For the MxPro 5 four‑loop panels, the EPD presents cradle‑to‑grave environmental data, including carbon footprint and other impact indicators, allowing consultants, designers and building owners alike to better understand how fire safety systems contribute to the overall environmental performance of a building or infrastructure project.

The EPD applies across the full range of MxPro 5 four‑loop panel configurations, including standard and deep enclosure formats, cross‑listed variants and Axis EN software variants, ensuring consistent environmental data is available regardless of configuration or compliance requirements.

Responsible product design

Beyond supporting external specification, the EPD is also valuable in supporting Advanced’s drive for continuous improvement and responsible product design.

By identifying where environmental impacts occur across the product lifecycle, the assessment provides insight that informs ongoing product development, material selection, manufacturing efficiency and energy use during operation.

The MxPro 5 range has been developed with longevity, flexibility and upgradeability in mind, helping to extend system life and reduce waste over time. The addition of an independently verified EPD for the four‑loop panels affords specifiers and end users the data they need to consider fire detection and alarm systems as part of a wider and more sustainable building strategy.

The EPD is valid for five years and will remain in force until March 2031, subject to the terms of the BRE Global verification scheme.
