FERREX AQUA
Use advice for data set This LCA is a Cradle-to-Grave with options. All major steps, from the extraction of natural resources to the final disposal of the product, are included in the scope of the study. The life cycle stages included are A1-A5, C2 and C4 and D. The use stage, B, is not considered in this study, since no impact are associated with the use stage. C1 and C3 are excluded, because there are no dismantling or demolition activities and no waste processing steps respectively. All impacts associated with the upstream production of materials and energy are included in the system boundaries. Mining activities and controlled landfills are included in the product systems. Wastewater treatment is not considered within the technological systems since it is already included in the solid waste treatment processes. The emissions and resource extractions derived from these processes are considered elementary exchanges between the product systems and the environment.Paint products do not consume resources and are not released into the environment during the use phase. Moreover, painted surfaces do not require maintenance, repair, replacement or refurbishment beyond their normal use, so no impact is considered for modules B1 to B7 and therefore excluded in this assessment. Regarding the end-of-life stage, the waste processing stage (C3) is irrelevant as no further processing is required during the end-of-life of decorative paints since they are disposed together with the substrate where they are applied on and not reused or recycled. Since the efficiency rate cannot be considered higher than 60% it is not included in this assessment. Module D is included to show the benefits and loads beyond the system boundary from the net output of recovered energy from the product system. Energy recovery values for the paint waste are taken on the default level in PEFCR for decorative paints: 1.01 MJ of electricity and 2.16 MJ of heat per kg of waste. Energy recovery values for the packaging materials waste are taken from the background documentation of the respective Ecoinvent datasets. The allocation is made in accordance with EN15804:A2. Allocation is based on physical and production shares. Energy and water use are allocated according to production volume.
Technical purpose of product or process The declaration covers FERREX products: anticorrosive paints for exterior and interior use. For iron and steel surfaces as well as aluminum; and a water-borne tin table anticorrosive paints for priming, top coating and one-layer painting for nearly all unpainted and previously painted metal surfaces indoors and outdoors. They are manufactured in one location. This EPD represents the highest environmental impacts of the FERREX Aqua and FERREX Combi products.

General comment on data set The allocation is made in accordance with EN15804:A2. Allocation is based on physical and production shares. Energy and water use are allocated according to production volume. There was no cut-off of raw materials or other inputs or outputs in any stage of the life cycle. Cut-offs in the background processes are according to the respective methodologies (see documentation of the relevant processes [Wernet, G. et al. 2016; https://www.ecoinvent.org/], [Dahlgren, L. et al., 2016]). Furthermore, brushes, clothes, buckets etc., used during the application process are excluded from the assessment since they are being considered capital goods.

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.
