Use advice for data set Scope: This verified EPD entitles the holder to bear the symbol of the Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V. It exclusively applies to products produced in Europe and for a period of five years from the date of issue. This EPD may be used by members of DBC, EFCC, FEICA and IVK and their members provided it has been proven that the respective product can be represented by this EPD. For this purpose, a guideline is available at the secretariats of the four associations. The members of the associations are listed on their respective websites. System boundary: Modules A1, A2 and A3 are taken into consideration in the LCA: - A1 Production of preliminary products - A2 Transport to the plant - A3 Production incl. provision of energy, production of packaging as well as auxiliaries and consumables and waste treatment - A4 Transport to site - A5 Installation, product applied into the building during A5 phase operations and packaging disposal. The emission of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) is also considered in this module. The end of life for the packaging material considered is described below: -Incineration, for materials like wood. -Landfill, for inert material like metals (where used). -C1-C2-C3-D The building deconstruction (demolition process) takes place in the C1 module which considers energy production and consumption in terms of diesel and all the emissions connected with the fuel-burning process to run the machines. After the demolition, the product is transported to the end-of-life processing (C2 module) where all the impacts related to the transport processes are considered. For precautionary principle and as a worst-case scenario, thermal treatment is the only end-of-life scenario considered. This is modelled by the incineration process (module C3) where the product ends its life cycle. Module D accounts for potential benefits that are beyond the defined system boundaries. Credits are generated during the incineration of wastes and related electricity produced that are occurring in the A5 module.
Technical purpose of product or process Products based on epoxy-resins are used for the following applications: Module 1: Reactive products for protecting and repairing concrete structures Products for increasing the durability of concrete and reinforced concrete structures as well as for new concrete and for maintenance and repair work (requirements 1.1), products used to restore and/or to replace defective concrete and to protect reinforce-ment, necessary to extend the service life of a concrete structure exhibiting deterioration (require-ments 1.2), products for structural bonding of strengthening materials to an existing concrete structure (requirements 1.3) and products for concrete injection for filling cracks, voids and interstices in concrete (requirements 1.4) Module 2: Liquid-applied roof waterproofing kits Reactive products for waterproofing roof constructions which are applied on site Module 3: Reactive products for liquid-applied bridge deck waterproofing kits Products for liquid-applied waterproofing for use on concrete bridge decks Module 4: Reactive products for watertight covering kits Products for waterproofing floors and/or walls in wet rooms inside buildings Module 5: Reactive products for liquid-applied waterproofings Liquid applied products for waterproofing of buildings Module 6: Screed material, floor screeds and decorative floors Products for screed/synthetic resin screed and decorative floors for use in floor constructions Module 7: Reactive products for waterproofing and/or for pre-treating mineral substrates Products to protect mineral substrates from the ingress of water

General comment on data set This EPD comprises reactive products based on epoxy (EP) resin and hardening agent; the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content is >18 %, ≤50 % (VOC definition according to Decopaint Directive). The aqueous systems can be formulated as aqueous dispersions on the resin or hardening agent side. They comply with multiple, often specific functions in the construction, furnishing and repair of structures. The product displaying the highest environmental impacts was used as a representative product for calculating the Life Cycle Assessment results (worst-case approach).

Technology description including background system This EPD comprises reactive products based on epoxy (EP) resin and hardening agent; the Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content is >18 %, ≤50 % (VOC definition according to Decopaint Directive). The aqueous systems can be formulated as aqueous dispersions on the resin or hardening agent side. They comply with multiple, often specific functions in the construction, furnishing and repair of structures. According to the Model EPD system (IBU) and the guideline and the substance list (available for members of the trade associations FEICA, EFCC, IVK and DBC), the environmental impacts of the substances are condensed to a single score; the single score of a formulation is calculated based on the single score of the substances. The products are grouped according to their single score (group 1 to 5), the formulation displaying the highest environmental impacts was used as a representative product for calculating the Life Cycle Assessment results (worst-case approach). Technical data: The density of the products is between 1,0 and 2,5 g/cm³, other relevant technical data can be found in the manufacturer’s technical documentation.

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.
