LCA METHODOLOGY

The environmental burden of the product has been processed according to the general rules of the EPD (Environmen-
tal Product Declaration) International Programme and the [Link] 2012:01 (versions 2.3), construction products and
construction services - Multiple UN CPC codes (Cradle to gate with options).

This declaration is based on the application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology to the whole life-cycle sys-
tem. Seamless pipe product at plant level, was described by using specific data from Dalmine manufacturing facility
for year 2018.

Packaging used for product delivery and pollutant concentration in wastewater is considered negligible in accordance
with the cut-off criteria established in PCR 2012:01 v.2.3 (ch. 7.6).

Customized LCA questionnaires were used to gather in-depth information about all aspects of the production system
(for example, raw materials specifications, pre-treatments, process efficiencies, air emissions, waste management),
ultimately providing a complete picture of the environmental burden of the system:

Raw materials supply (A1), Transport (A2), Manufacturing (A3) and transport to final destination was considered (A4).
