Use advice for data set The flowchart in the figure below illustrates the system boundaries for the analysis, in accordance with the modular principle of EN 15804. The analysis is a cradle-to-gate (A1 - A3) study.
Technical purpose of product or process Jotashield Penetrating Primer is an alkali resistant, solvent based primer that is based on acrylic copolymer resin. It has excellent penetration into the substrate thereby providing the best adhesion. The declared product offers best protection against alkali attack, and is ideal for priming exterior surfaces. For information on Green Building Standard credits, see "Additional Information" on page 4. The material composition of the declared mixed product is given below:

General comment on data set Data quality: 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 2015. Representative data from ecoinvent v3.2 was used for other processes. The data quality for the material input in A1 is presented in tabular form. Allocation: The allocation is made in accordance with the provisions of EN 15804. Incoming energy, water and waste production in-house is primarily allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Specific allocation was performed for certain waste flows according to information provided by the site manager. VOC emissions have been allocated entirely to the production of solvent based paints. 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 essential energy is included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows with very small amounts (less than 0.1 % dry matter) are not included. In total, more than 99% of the material input is included. These cut-off criteria do not apply for non-energy related emissions (such as wastes, hazardous materials and substances).

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 metal packaging, including secondary packaging such as pallets and plastic wrapping. For safety, health and environmental conditions, see the Safety Data Sheet for the declared product on www.jotun.com.
