Use advice for data set	A5: Inneholder bare avfallhåndtering av emballasje pga. mange ulike installasjonssenarioer. C1 er tom da det ikke er mulig å beskrive demonteringen fra VA anlegg
Technical purpose of product or process	Produkter av seigjern brukes hovedsakelig som gategods og kan i sin fulle grad gjenvinnes. For mer informasjon se: https://ulefos.com/product-category/gategods/ EPD gjelder for alle produkter av seigjern produsert på Ulefos Jernværk, Ulefoss.
Classification	Class name : Hierarchy level EPDNorge: Construction / Steel and Aluminium
General comment on data set	Datakvalitet: Spesifikke data for produktsammensetningen er fremskaffet av produsenten. De representerer produksjonen av det deklarerte produktet og ble samlet inn for EPD-utvikling i det oppgitte året for studien. Bakgrunnsdata er basert på EPDer iht. EN 15804 og ulike LCA databaser. Datakvaliteten for råmaterialene i A1 er presentert i tabellen nedenfor. Prospectiv EPD basert på NEPD-3176-1817-NO. Data fra år 2020. Allokering: Allokering er gjort iht. bestemmelser i EN 15804. Inngående energi og vann, samt produksjon av avfall i egen produksjon er allokert likt mellom alle produktene gjennom masseallokering. Miljøpåvirkning og ressursforbruk for primærproduksjonen av resirkulerte materialer er allokert til det opprinnelige produktsystemet. Bearbeidingsprosessen og transport av materialet til produksjonssted er allokert til analysen i denne EPDen. Cut-off kriterier: Alle viktige råmaterialer og all viktig energibruk er inkludert. Produksjonsprosessen for råmaterialene og energistrømmer som inngår med veldig små mengder (mindre enn 1%) er ikke inkludert. Disse cut-off kriteriene gjelder ikke for farlige materialer og stoffer.

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.
