| Use advice for data set | Scope: This document relates to uncoated medium density EGGER MDF fibreboards (average), which are produced in the group's following plant: Egger Holzwerkstoffe Wismar GmbH & Co. KG, Am Haffeld 1, 23970 Wismar, Germany The production conditions in Wismar are representative for the other plants. They correspond to the technologies and standards used in all locations. This document is translated from the German Environmental Product Declaration into English. It is based on the German original version EPD-EGG-20150046-IBA1-DE. The verifier has no influence on the quality of the translation. System boundary: This is a "from cradle to gate, with options" EPD. The life cycle analysis for the products under consideration encompasses the following segments of the life cycle: “Product stage” and “Credits and charges beyond the limits of the product system”. The systems therefore encompass the following stages according to /EN 15804/: Product stage (module A1-A3): A1 Procurement and processing of raw materials as well as processing of secondary raw materials serving as inputs A2 Transportation to the manufacturer A3 Production Credits and debits beyond the limits of the product system (module D): D Reuse, recovery or recycling potential |
| Technical purpose of product or process | Due to their homogeneous structure, MDF boards can be milled three-dimensionally and then painted or faced with a foil in a membrane press. They are predominantly used coated and as furniture boards. They are used, for example, as deep drawer fronts in the kitchen area. |
