COMPARABILITY

Environmental Product Declarations from different programmes may not be directly comparable if not compliant with EN
15804:2012+A2:2019. Comparability is further dependent on the specific product category rules, system boundaries and allocations, and
background data sources. See clause 5.3 of EN 15804:2012+A2:2019

3. Detailed product description
This EPD is for the (Polyisocyanurate) PIR insulation boards: CT/PIR, FR/ALU, FR/BGM, FR/MG, Thin-R, of thickness
100mm, the R values quoted are minimum values and the EPD is calculated on this basis. The PIR boards
typically comprise of primary raw materials MDI, polyol, flame retardant, pentane, with the addition of minor
amounts of admixtures. Depending on intended use, the board facing elements comprise various combinations
of the following materials: paper, foil, hard plastic, mineral glass, bitumen fibre. The primary raw materials are
mixed with various catalysts & additives and placed between two layers of facing elements. The insulation
products are manufactured in accordance with BS EN 13165:2012+A2:2016 Thermal insulation products for
buildings.

These insulation products are used in cavity walls, steel and timber-frame walls, soffit, floor, pitched and flat roof
insulation applications.

3.1 Manufacturing Process Description


The main raw materials are mixed with various catalysts and additives before being metered onto a moving
conveyor. The chemical mix then starts to rise, due to the effects of the blowing agent, to produce the foam. The
foam continues to rise until it contacts the top layer of facer material as it enters the oven, where it is then cured
under heat to produce the rigid, thermoset foam board. The board exits the lamination oven and then reaches
a cross-cut saw which cuts the board into smaller mother-boards. Each mother-board then is transported to a
separate area to cure. There is a minor amount of additional cutting to produce speciality boards such as rebated
or tongue & groove edges. Finished boards are stored in the warehouse before despatch to customers. Off cuts
from the cutting and trimming are compressed on-site and sent to landfill.

This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuelcycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor
[1]

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.

This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuelcycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor
[1]

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.

5. Calculation rules
The measurement of environmental impacts in this EPD uses the LCIA methodologies recommended for PEF3.0.
The indicator values for polyol and MDI are from Plastics Europe Ecoprofile (GaBi); and the impact assessment
results of these materials were calculated using OpenLCA. As this EPD is based on Ecoinvent database, there
can be a lack of consistency between GaBi and Ecoinvent indicators such as toxicities, ozone depletion and
hazardous waste disposal, although there is good agreement on global warming potential.

The process descriptions and quantities in this study are reproducible in accordance to the reference standards
that have been used. The references of all sources, both primary and public sources and literature, have been
documented in the LCA report. The ‘polluter pays’ and ‘modularity’ principles have been followed.

In addition, to facilitate the reproducibility of this LCA, a full set of data records has been generated which can
be accessed via the Ecochain LCA tool. This data portfolio contains a summary of all the data used in this LCA,
and correspondingly, in the Unilin Insulation Ireland Ltd Ecochain account.

Cut-off criteria
The cut-off criteria of section 6.3.6 of EN15804 +A2 have been followed.

Data Quality
The dataset is representative for the production processes used in 2019. The data Quality Level, according to
Table E.1 of EN 15804 +A2, Annex E, is 'very good'.

Allocations
Allocation of electricity types and amounts to the various manufacturing processes has been provided by Unilin
Insulation Ireland Ltd , along with production waste and direct emissions; allocation of impacts to the products
is based on the product composition mass.

6. Scenarios and additional technical information


The product and data used in this EPD are based on the being manufactured in, and transported to customers
within the UK geographic region.

C1. De-construction demolition


It is assumed the insulation panes are removed manually from site, thus no energy or materials are required for
Module C1.

C2. Transport
In the transport phase C2, it is assumed that the removed materials travel 50km to landfill and 250km to
incineration, as applicable. Transport vehicle type: Freight lorry 16-32 metric ton, EURO6.

C3. Waste processing


Based on feedback supplied by Unilin Insulation Ireland Ltd , it is assumed that 30% of the material at end of life
is processed, by being burned in an incineration plant.

C4. Disposal
Based on feedback supplied by Unilin Insulation Ireland Ltd , it is assumed that 70% of the material at end of life
is disposed of in landfill.
D. Reuse – Recovery – Recycling potential
It is assumed that of the mass of material incinerated, 40% of this mass is converted to energy. It is assumed that
in calculating this energy amount, that the efficiency of the incineration in converting NCV to energy is 70%.

Of this energy, it is assumed that 82% becomes electricity, and 12% becomes heat (based on UK energy statistics,
from “UK energy from waste statistics - 2020”, Tolvic Consulting).
