PE 100 Pressure pipe and pipe fittings
Use advice for data set The system boundaries for this EPD is module A1-A5. A4: Distance for transport from manufacturer to building site is set to 300 km by truck. This distance is given in new PCRs as default value for Norway. For project specific EPDs, tugboat can be can be included as transport. A5: Only packaging waste is included. Installment factors are not included due to uncertain assembly scenarios. C and D: Is included as zero because it is assumed that the pipes are left in the ground after end of life.
Technical purpose of product or process PE 100 pressure pipes and fittings made from PE 100 pipes. Pipes and fittings are applicable for water supply, drains and sewer under pressure, non-pressure drains, sewers, and surface water systems. These pipes can be installed underground, above ground, in water and for trenchless technologies. The pipes and fittings are black, and black with identification stripes. The colours are according to the product standards. This EPD covers pipes in coils, straight lengths and pipe fittings made from pressure pipes. For project specific EPDs, identifications stripes can be included. For more information: www.haplast.no The product standards for these pressure pipes are: NS-EN 12201.

General comment on data set Data quality: Specific data for the product composition are provided by the manufacturer. The data represent the production of the declared product and were collected for EPD development in the year of study. Background data is based on EPDs according to EN 15804 and different 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. All raw materials and all the essential energy are included.

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.
