Extension deadline reimbursement scheme Filling the Gaps

The current reimbursement scheme Filling the Gaps is closed as of Oct. 31. This means that you can no longer register products for this compensation scheme. The scheme was intended to support manufacturers and suppliers in setting up LCAs in accordance with EN15804 and Dutch regulations. With this scheme, Stichting NMD strives for a more complete and accurate environmental performance calculation of structures.

New deadline for publication of LCA in NMD and delivery of documentation: December 1, 2024

Have you applied for the scheme and your LCA has not yet been published in the NMD and/or the documentation has not yet been delivered (so you can apply for the reimbursement)? Then we have an important update for you: the deadline for LCA publication and to provide the documentation has been extended to December 1, 2024. With this, we have responded to the request for more time from data suppliers, who are in the midst of completing their Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) for inclusion in the NMD. The extension provides additional time for applicants to meet the set requirements and contribute to improved data quality in the NMD.
