Key Data Set Information
Location	PL
Geographical representativeness description	Mainly Norway, but also Europe.
Reference year	2025
Name	Extruded PP DN/ID 1000 Pragma Infra pipes
Use advice for data set	The analysis is a cradle-to-gate (A1 - A3) study, with option A4 transport to market. It includes the extraction and production of raw materials, transportation to the production site, the production process itself and transport to the market. A5, installation, is included for the transport of packaging waste from the construction site and the treatment of this waste - not the installation of the products. The data in A1 is generated from the cradle to gate part (A1-A3) of an internally verified EPD from Pipelife Polen's Strzalków production site. A2 covers the specific transportation of the product from Strzalków to Pipelife Norway, Surnadal.
Technical purpose of product or process	Pragma Infra pipes have a structured wall of PP - smooth inside and corrugated outside. The applications are underground non-pressure sewers and surface water systems underground. The colours are according to the product standards and the colour codes for these applications in Norway. More information is found on https://www.pipelife.no/ Products declared in this EPD are manufactured by Pipelife Poland SA, and transported to Pipelife Norway AS, Surnadal, for storage before further transportation to customer. A1: includes A1-A3 of an internally verified EPD for the Polish production. A2: incluces transportation from Pipelife Poland to Pipelife Norway, Surnadal. A3: includes no data. Reloading/handling is considered as negligible. A4: includes transportation from Surnadal to generic customer. The products covered by this EPD have small variations in composition and are manufactured with the same type of equipment. The composition below represents an average for these products manufactured in 2023.
Classification	Class name : Hierarchy level EPDNorge: Construction / Piping
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 not allocated among purchased products which are not further processed, only reloaded and handled, before leaving Surnadal. Cut-off criteria: All raw materials and all the essential energy are included.

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.
