Name	OFFECCT Circulus
Technical purpose of product or process	Circulus, Latin for circle, plays on the very essence of the new sofa. It combines one of the core design elements with the ambition to design and manufacture an innovative sofa system with circularity in mind. Unlimited in every sense: colours, comfort, adaptability, and durability, and above all, recyclability. It’s simply made for endless life and possibilities. The model analyzed in detail in this declaration is the OFFECCT Circulus 2-seater sofa with a high backrest, upholstered in Xtreme fabric from Camira, including packaging. Key environmental indicators for other models and options of the OFFECCT Circulus are presented in tables on pages 12–13 of this declaration.
Classification	Class name : Hierarchy level EPDNorge: Furniture / Soft seating
General comment on data set	Data quality: Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. They represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on registered EPDs according to EN 15804, Ostfold Research databases, ecoinvent and other 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.

Technology description including background system	The Circulus sofa system offers virtually unlimited possibilities to easily configure and tailor a sofa for any environment. You can play around with one, two and three seat combinations anyway you like, add high and low back rests, place in a row or with facing seats. Then add 74 frame colours and a multitude of fabrics and upholstery colours of your choice. You can do the math. The only limit is your imagination.

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.
