Name
Flutex 2S™
Technical purpose of product or process Flutex 2S is a water based, rich PVA-paint, which gives a nice, full-matt and non-reflecting surface. The variants White and Offwhite are ecolabelled with Nordic Swan and EU Ecolabel. Flutex 2S is recommended for ceilings where there are special aesthetic requirements. Results in a flat structure and uniform, non-reflecting finish. For information on Green Building Standard credits and Ecolabels, see "Additional Information" on page 4 Life cycle analysis carried out for the white variant, which is estimated to have the greatest environmental impact.

General comment on data set The CEPE database is used as basis for the raw material composition. Specific data for the product composition and raw material amounts has been provided by the manufacturer and represents the production of the declared product. Production site data was collected in 2018. Remaining data is based on Ecoinvent v3.5, but adjusted to improve representativeness. All energy consumption in the database is assumed not to be used as raw material. The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of NS-EN 15804. Incoming energy, water and waste production in-house is primarily allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. The recycling process and transportation of the material is allocated to this analysis. All major raw materials and essential energy is included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (<1%) are not included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for hazardous materials and substances.

Technology description including background system Density: 1,43 kg/l Solids by volume: 55,7% EU VOC limit value for product (Cat. A/a): 30 g/l Product VOC max. 10 g/l (white and offwhite) Nominal spreading rate: 8 - 9 m2/l Wet film thickness: 113 - 125 µm Dry film thickness: 40 - 44 µm The most representative and worst case formulation is chosen for this EPD. For products with a selection of colours, this will be the formulation with the highest content of titanium dioxide. The product packaging is based on an average sized plastic packaging. For safety, health and environmental conditions, see the Safety Data Sheet for the declared product on www.flugger.no. For information on technical data, application and use of the product, see the Technical Data Sheet and FDV (Forvaltning, Drift og Vedlikehold ) for the declared product on www.flugger.no
