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. The end-of-waste point of the studied product is the step when the material is used as fuel in an incineration plant or when recycled material is handled in the collection and sorting plant. The end-of-waste point of the waste flows in the A3 module is the step when the materials are collected and handled in the sorting plant. The end-of-waste point of the packaging materials collected for recycling in the A5 module is the point when the materials are collected and handled in the sorting plant Production processes on the Sewatek ´s production site cover following manufacturing processes; raw material supply (plastics, rubber and steel), pipe and intermediate product manufacturing including optimization and cutting as well as component collection, assembly of pipes and components and packaging the final product. After that, products will be transported to the client. The production processes of studied products are presented in the following figure.

General comment
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, cutoff 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. • Waste: 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 any modules or processes which represent more than 1 % of the emissions of the studied life cycle stage. The study does not exclude any hazardous materials or substances. Excluded processes and the criteria for exclusion are given in the following table. Machines and facilities (capital goods) required for and during production are excluded, as is transportation of employees.

Technical purpose
The studied products are fire stop products. The assessment of environmental impacts has been made for the following product types. H-series Penetration for plastic pipes and cables H2-40, H2-60, H2- 75, H2-90 Without fire tape: H2-40, H2-60, H2- 75, H2-90 1 kg H2-Series products are ETA-assessed and CE-marked fire stops installed in reserved slots or bore holes. The product consists of sewatek penetration pipe, heat expanding fire strip, end cap and installation flange. The product is used as fire stop for metal-, composite-, plastic pipes and cables through concrete floors. Typical application includes heat and water pipes in renovation sites. ETA: ETA: 26.8.2024 / DoP SWT-12_0924 This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) declares the results of the representative product H2-75 with tape. The representative product was chosen to be the conservative product in the declared product group in terms of its Global Warming Potential (GWP) total results per 1 kg of product. The GWP total (A1-3) results of the minimum product are 14% lower than the results of the representative product that represents the worst-case product in terms of GWP values.
