Nordanger LVTgulv Standard
Use advice for data set The product phases include the extraction and production of raw materials and packaging materials (module A1), the transport to the production plant (module A2) and the production of LVT flooring in China (module A3). Distribution, assembly phase and waste management for the product are included based on the Norwegian market.
Technical purpose of product or process Nordanger LVTgulv Standard is available in many beautiful designs. Its wear resistance and durability make it very suitable for commercial use such as shops, offices, restaurants, hotels, nursing homes, rental apartments, etc. Nordanger Gulv AS introduced LVT (Luxury Vinyl Tiles) to the Norwegian market in 1978, and has since worked hard to offer products that can withstand high loads and at the same time have an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Over the years, we have supplied floors to over 10,000 premises in public environments, such as shops, offices, restaurants and hotels. Our floors are developed to withstand high traffic and high wear while being functional and having a modern design. Nordanger LVT floors are supplied in more than 50 different varieties adapted to the different areas of use. • All activity in Nordanger Gulv AS has focus on environmental perspectives. Our work environment shall be clean end safe, and all employees must consider environmental consequences throughout their workdays. • Nordanger Gulv AS assures that all production of flooring apply current environmental legislation, both in the short and the long term.

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.

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.
