| Use advice for data set | The EPD is a cradle-to-cradle analysis, A1-D, where some B-stages (use phase) that were assumed to be neglectable are not included. The A1-A4 stages includes the extraction and production of raw materials, transportation to the production site, the production process itself, and an estimated transport distance to the market. A5 includes the generated waste from the packaging of the product after assembly at the customer. The only B stage that is assumed to be relevant is B2, which includes assumptions on how the customer takes care of the product according to Abstracta's care instructions. The C- and D-stages includes the use of materials and energy for deconstruction, the transport to waste management, the waste processes, disposal of materials that cannot be processed, and the potential of reuse, recovery, and recycling of the product. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | Scala Ceiling Panel is an acoustic panel that is suspended from the ceiling. The design of the sound-absorbent Scala is not only developed for visual reasons, but primarily to contribute to a softer soundscape. It prevents the sound waves to continue upwards in the room, which contribute to a more pleasant soundscape. For more information about the product, see the product brochure https://lammhults.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/abs-webpage/EQiUavqORcBCmZ3V9YmdocwBmAZG-qtZMnbfmvW9ZE1FGg?e=f1Sbd8. The modules are made from compressed polyester with or without fabric. It is suspended from the ceiling with its included wire kit. Scala Ceiling Panel is also available as a lamp. |

| 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. |

| Technology description including background system | The dimensions of Scala Ceiling Panel 190 540 00 are 1207x1600x60. The product is also available as a lamp; however, electrical devices and lighting are not covered by the PCR used for the EPD. Therefore, it is important to note that a Scala Ceiling Panel with lighting will likely have a larger environmental impact than what is shown in this EPD. For more information about the product, see the technical data sheet: https://lammhults.sharepoint.com/:b:/s/abs-webpage/EZpjGb5AC2dEjqS5JXatRqkBjO7agqNlBocvQf4I924NIA?e=deAf4m. The EPD is made for a Scala Ceiling Panel without fabric, but with fabric is also available. Note that adding this, changes the environmental impact of the product. |
