Modules not relevant = MNR MANUFACTURING AND PACKAGING (A1-A3) The environmental impacts considered for the product stage cover the manufacturing of raw materials used in the production as well as packaging materials and other ancillary materials. Also, fuels used by machines, and handling of waste formed in the production processes at the manufacturing facilities are included in this stage. The study also considers the material losses occurring during the manufacturing processes as well as losses during electricity transmission. A location-based approach is used in modelling the electricity mix utilized in the factory. The Austrian grid was used as it is the manufacturing place of the product. TRANSPORT AND INSTALLATION (A4-A5) Transportation impacts occurred from final products delivery to construction site (A4) cover fuel direct exhaust emissions, environmental impacts of fuel production, as well as related infrastructure emissions. This study did not consider the transportation impacts from the delivery of final products to the construction site (A4). PRODUCT USE AND MAINTENANCE (B1-B7) This EPD does not cover the use phase. Air, soil, and water impacts during the use phase have not been studied. PRODUCT END OF LIFE (C1-C4, D) The product end of life stages (C1 – C4) are not included in this EPD based on the EN 15804 standard special provision for construction products and materials which fulfil the conditions for exemption based on the product being integrated and not capable of separating from site of application at end of life, the product not being identifiable as original based on the physical change after deconstruction and the omission of any biogenic carbon in the product.

7 MasterRoc TSG 800 Created with One Click LCA LIFE-CYCLE ASSESSMENT CUT-OFF CRITERIA The study does not exclude any modules or processes which are stated mandatory in the reference standard and the applied PCR. The study does not exclude any hazardous materials or substances. The study includes all major raw material and energy consumption. All inputs and outputs of the unit processes, for which data is available for, are included in the calculation. There is no neglected unit process that is more than 1% of total mass or energy flows. The module specific total neglected input and output flows also do not exceed 5% of energy usage or mass. The production of capital equipment, construction activities, and infrastructure, maintenance and operation of capital equipment, personnel-related activities, energy and water use related to company management and sales activities are excluded. VALIDATION OF DATA Data collection for production, transport, and packaging was conducted using time and site-specific information, as defined in the general information section on page 1 and 2. Upstream process calculations rely on generic data as defined in the Bibliography section. Manufacturer-provided specific and generic data were used for the product’s manufacturing stage. The analysis was performed in One Click LCA EPD Generator, with the 'Cut-Off, EN 15804+A2' allocation method, and characterization factors according to EN 15804:2012+A2:2019/AC:2021 and JRC EF 3.1. ALLOCATION, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS Allocation is required if some material, energy, and waste data cannot be measured separately for the product under investigation. All allocations are made according to the reference standards and the applied PCR. In this study, allocation has been done in the following ways: Data type Allocation Raw materials No Allocation Packaging material No Allocation Ancillary materials No Allocation Manufacturing energy and waste No Allocation PRODUCT & MANUFACTURING SITES GROUPING Type of grouping No grouping Grouping method Not applicable Variation in GWP-fossil for A1-A3, % - This EPD is product and factory specific.
8 MasterRoc TSG 800 Created with One Click LCA LCA SOFTWARE AND BIBLIOGRAPHY This EPD has been created using One Click LCA EPD Generator for EPD Hub V3 v3.2.3. The LCA and EPD have been prepared according to the reference standards and ISO 14040/14044. The EPD Generator uses Ecoinvent v3.10.1/3.11 and One Click LCA databases as sources of environmental data. Allocation used in Ecoinvent 3.10.1/3.11 environmental data sources follow the methodology ‘allocation, Cut-off, EN 15804+A2‘.
