Name
Rockfon Chicago Metallic T24 Click 2890 - T24 2890 CTC (up to 1200 mm)
Use advice for data set The LCA is a cradle-to-grave study, addressing all life cycle stages identified in the EN15804. All major raw materials, energy, electricity use and waste are included for all life cycle modules, see flowchart below. There are no environmental impacts at the use stage.
Technical purpose of product or process The Rockfon Chicago Metallic T24 2890 Click - cross tees (T24 2890 CTC) are profiles designed to be used in combination with Rockfon Chicago Metallic T24 2890 Click - main runners and L/W-wall angles. Together, these components form a grid suspension system used to install and support ceiling tiles. The cross tees are made from cold-rolled galvanized steel and coated steel. These profiles' mass is 0.30 kg/lm. Grid colors: Standard, Color-all COL.
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. All data represents the applicable geography, time and technology for the specific and generic data, generally assessed as good and very good. Primary data is collected from respective production site in Belgium for the reference year 2020. Generic data is from GaBi database (version 2021) with GaBi Software version 10.0.1.92 used for calculations. The raw materials data is from reference year 2019 or 2020 according to the database documentation. 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. The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Production activities, electricity and energy consumption and waste generation are allocated equally among all products from the production site through mass allocation. 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. All major raw materials and all the essential energy are included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows that are included with very small amounts (<1% energy, mass, impact) are not included. This cut-off rule does not apply for hazardous materials and substances. Data sets are complete according to the system boundary within the limits set by the criteria for the exclusion of inputs and outputs. All relevant data, all applied materials according to the recipe and the energy used, originate from the production data and have been considered within the inventory analysis.

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.
