| Technical purpose of product or process | The Axia 2.0 chair family is renowned for its innovative design, specifically its unique movement that ensures optimal pelvic support. The backrest and seat of the chair move together at a fixed angle, promoting proper posture and comfort. The "split seat" design allows users to maintain stable footing while moving the chair, as the front part of the seat tilts forward while the back-part tilts backward, preventing sliding when leaning back. The Axia 2.0 offers an easily adjustable weight setting, enabling quick customization of the chair's counter-pressure for seamless support during active sitting. Additionally, the backrest shape provides ample shoulder space and movement, with various sizes available and a separately adjustable back angle. Optional features such as a lumbar pump and memory foam enhance the chair's support and comfort. The Axia 2.0 series boasts a thoughtfully designed seat cushion with sliding seat adjustment, accommodating individual preferences and ensuring proper alignment. The chair's armrests remain fixed in position when the seat and back move simultaneously, allowing users to shift comfortably without adjusting their arm position. The series offers two mechanism options: the Axia standard chair mechanism with adjustable seat height, back angle, and seat angle, known as mechanism A. And a simplified mechanism with seat height and seat angle adjustment suitable for open or flexible workspaces that require frequent user change, called mechanism B. Controls for adjustments are conveniently located on both sides, ensuring easy access and operation. The chair's modular design allows for interchangeability of seat and back components, featuring an easy click-on/off system that enhances the chair's longevity while meeting the ergonomic needs of individual users. The model studied in this declaration is the Axia 2.2 (3122) including knock down packaging option 1. The model declared does not include any options such as armrests, headrest, etc. Note that the pictured Axia Exclusive on the first page (bottom right) is including options "Headrest Exclusive Black upholstered" and "Armrest 8N XL Black" but the values in the variants table on page 12, is without any options. The key environmental indicators for the other models of the family, and applicable options of the product collection are presented in a table on page 12 of this declaration. |

| 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. |
