LUMON GLAZING RETRACTABLE (AVERAGE SIZE)
Use advice for data set Studied system covers the following steps of life cycle according to EN 15804: A1 Raw material supply, A2 Transport, A3 Manufacturing, A4 Transportation of the product to construction site, A5 Installation to building, C1 Deconstruction, C2 Transportation of end-of-life C3 Waste processing and C4 Disposal. In addition, the benefits and loads beyond the system boundary of stage D consist of product reuse, recovery and recycling.
Technical purpose of product or process The product portfolio of Lumon covers multiple product families and individual products, with numerous product variations available depending on the target and customer's needs. The EPD has been developed based on the principle of modularity, allowing for the creation of EPD results for any Lumon’s product using the main materials or components included in the products. This EPD creating method provides high coverage and adaptability to different product variants for Lumon Oy’s customers. The studied product components are: • Tempered glass • Aluminium • Other materials - component Commercial labels: • Lumon Glazing Retractable Glass products are used for balcony and terrace enclosures. The products are suitable for all types of buildings. The frameless glazing system is inward and outward opening and upper bearing, that is developed for use worldwide on balconies and terraces. The system consists of an upper and a lower aluminum profile which are mounted to the balcony ceiling and on handrail or floor. Toughened glass panes, with glass beads top and bottom, are mounted between the upper and lower profiles. The glass panes slide and fold open with the help of roller bearings and hinge components that are fixed to each glazing bead. Vertical and lateral silicone and rubber sealing profiles are used to cover gaps and openings between the glazing system and the surrounding structures to ensure sufficient water, wind and sound proofing. The Lumon Glazing Retractable has two strength classes; normal and strong. The normal strength is used in conventional conditions and low glazings, as the strong version of the glazing with stronger components are for challenging conditions and high glazings. The selection between normal and strong is automatic and made by the functional calculation. Glass: 6, 8, 10 or 12 mm tempered glass. A locking groove is milled to the top and bottom of the glass to ensure a fail-proof connection between the glass and the glass bead in addition to the adhesively bonded connection.

General comment on data set Allocation rules used are made according to the ISO14044:2006. Allocation is avoided when possible and when necessary, allocation is made based on physical shares and also avoiding double calculations. Allocation is required if the production process produces more than one product and the flows of materials, energy and waste cannot be separately measured for the studied product. Allocation used in generic data sources follow the requirements of the EN 15804 -standard. It should be noticed that the allocation method ‘allocation, cut-off by classification’ has been used for Ecoinvent 3.8 data, which complies with EN 15804. Avoiding allocation could not be avoided for following inputs as the information was only measured on factory process level. • Electricity consumption: only measured on factory level. • Aluminium-, glass waste: only measured on factory level. • Water use: only measured on factory level. • Ancillary materials; fluids: only measured on factory level. • Packaging materials: only measured on factory level. The inputs were allocated to studied product based on production volume (mass in kilograms). According to EN 15804, flows leaving the system at the end-of-waste boundary of the product stage (A1- A3) are allocated as co-products. According to EN 15804, process that has a very low contribution to the overall revenue may be neglected in co-product allocation. Materials sent for recycling or energy recovery from manufacturing were not allocated, as it was estimated that their contribution to the overall revenue is very marginal. No other allocations were made in this assessment. This study follows the cut-off criteria stated in RTS PCR and EN 15804 -standard. This study does not exclude anu components or processes which represent more than 1 % of the emissions of studied life cycle stage. The study does not exclude any hazardous materials or substances. Machines and facilities (capital goods) required for and during production are excluded, as is transportation of employees.

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.
