Title: EPD Miljødeklarasjon Cembrit Transparent (EPD).pdf
3.2 Type of the EPD: Cradle to factory gate The LCA refers to the stage of product development in accordance with /EN 15804/ (information modules A1 to A3). Other life-cycle phases such as processing, use and disposal have not been accounted for. The system boundary includes the provision and processing of raw materials. These include in particular cement, plastic fibres, pulp and packaging materials (A1). The transports to the manufacturer (A2) were specifically collected for all starting materials. The production (A3) includes also all in-plant energy consumption, the consumption of auxiliary materials, VOC emissions of the coating process as well as the treatment of the quantities of waste and waste-water. All material and energy input processes of modules A1 to A3 and the treatment of all waste are part of the system. A large part of the waste arises when cutting the boards. Some of the waste-water is treated in in-plant sewage treatment plants.Background data
