Reference year	2025
Name	Gypfill X-Ray Protection, Promix X-Ray Protection
Use advice for data set	A1-A5: All processes from raw material extraction, transport of raw material to production site, production, transport to the construction site and assembly are included in the analysis. B1-B5: The user stage is not considered in this EPD. C1-C4 and D: End of life stage and phases beyond the system boundary is part of the EPD. System boundaries shows in the picture below.
Technical purpose of product or process	Gypfill- and Promix X-Ray Protection Joint Mix is a wet ready mixed filler which is specially adapted to be used with lead-free Gyproc X-Ray plasterboards to get a lead-free wall system for X-Ray rooms. The filler is based on barium sulfate and is used for joints ,screw heads and any gaps or surface defects on the board in order to ensure the X-Ray protection. XRay Protection is a ready to use product. X-Ray Protection is a jointing compound for indoor use. Lead-free X-Ray plasterboards replaces lead-containing boards in hospitals and contributes to a lead-free environment. Do not add water or any other substances to the product, it can affect the protection against X-Rays. Packaging: 10L plastic bucket

General comment on data set	Data quality: Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different LCA databases. The data quality of the raw materials in A1 is presented in the table below. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Incoming energy and water and waste production in-house is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials is allocated to the main product in which the material was used. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. Cut-off criteria: All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production processes for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (less than 1%) are not included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for hazardous materials and substances.

¹This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
²The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
