Netting
Use advice for data set This EPD is a “cradle-to-gate with options” EPD. The system boundary for this LCA report is from A1 to A5, C1-C4 and D
Technical purpose of product or process NETTING PoliMac coated double twist wire meshes are made from high quality steel wire, which is heavily galvanised (Zinc-Aluminum alloy in accordance with EN 10244-2 and ISO 7989-2 - Class A). The additional protective polymeric (PoliMac) coating is applied for wire meshes for use in aggressive en- vironments and where a longer design life is required. NETTING PoliMac DT Mesh complies with EN 10223-3:2013.

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.
