Key Data Set Information
Location DK
Geographical representativeness description This EPD is intended for main market areas in Europe, Middle East and Asia that receive products from the factories in Cigacice in Poland, Roermond in Netherlands and Saint-Eloy-Les-Mines, France. The EPD can also be used in other markets that receive products from these factories
Reference year 2023
Name
Rockfon Cleanspace® Pure A 20
Use advice for data set EPD type: Cradle-to-grave and module D (A, B, C and D). All relevant life cycle stages are included. All major raw materials, energy, electricity use, and waste are included for all life cycle modules, as shown in the flowchart below. Use stage B1-7 modules are considered but are not relevant, as there are no activities and no significant environmental impact in the use stage
Technical purpose of product or process The average composition used for Rockfon products is calculated based on average factory consumption figures for raw materials as a conservative approach. The main raw materials are non-scarce stones and briquettes, which are made of rock mineral wool waste, cement, and other materials. The binder is a water-based phenol-formaldehyde resin which is polymerized into solid resin during production of the final stone wool product. Materials % Function Stone wool 73-97 Core insulation material Mineral oil <0,2 Water repellent Binder, a thermoset inert polymer resin <4 Structural binder Non-woven glass wool facing (optional) 1-15 Facing Aluminium foil 0-1 Sound blocker Glue 0,01 Glue Water-based paints 0-16 Decorative finishing

General comment on data set 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 sites in Cigacice, Poland, in Roermond, Netherlands and Saint-Eloy-Les-Mines, France for the reference year 2022 and represents stabilized production. Generic data is from LCA FE (GaBi) database (version 2023.1) with LCA FE (GaBi) Software version 10.7.1.28. 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. The environmental impact of co-products coming for example from the steel and electricity plants (e.g. slags, alumina and ashes entering the system as inputs to the manufacturing) is accounted for and economic allocation is applied. 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.
