Name	Protecta Interior Paint FR-1 (pail) for Sweden
Use advice for data set	The life cycle analysis is a cradle-to-grave study, excluding the use phase (B1-B7). It includes the extraction and production of raw materials and packaging, transportation to the manufacturing site, the production process itself, transportation to the construction site, waste management during product installation, demolition of the building, transportation to waste treatment facilities, waste treatment, as well as potential recycling, reuse, repurposing, or energy recovery. A4: Transportation from the factory in England to Sweden is included. Additionally, 300 km of transportation from our warehouse to the construction site is added according to the PCR. A5: The module includes electricity and water consumption for the paint sprayer. It also accounts for 7% of material waste and VOC emissions during installation. All packaging is sent for average waste management. C1: We consider it unlikely that the paint will be removed from the surface to which it is applied. We therefore assume the surface will be included in the documentation, and the environmental impact is covered by the surface’s EPD. C2: 50 km transport to the nearest waste treatment facility is assumed. C3: No part of the product is assumed to be sent for incineration. C4: The entire product is assumed to be sent to landfill. The surface may be recyclable if the paint is removed. However, we consider the likelihood of this practice being carried out to be minimal. D: Reuse, recovery, and recycling are set to zero.
Technical purpose of product or process	Protecta Interior Paint FR-1 is a decorative paint with special properties to protect against spread of fire. It is a hard-wearing interior acrylic paint, formulated to the highest specification and offering unsurpassed intensity of colour. All colours are water-based and provide a smooth, rich and non-reflective finish. It is perfect for a contemporary look and to hide surface imperfections. Interior Paint FR-1 is a one-layer system that normally requires no primer, no top coat, is easy to use and very easy to clean up.

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.
