ArmaComfort® AB AL PUR
Use advice for data set The life cycle analysis (LCA) of the declared products covers: product stage – modules A1-A5, end of life – modules C1-C4 and benefits and loads beyond the system boundary – module D (cradle-to-gate with options) in accordance with EN 15804+A2 and ITB PCR A . Energy and water consumption, emissions as well as information on generated wastes were inventoried and were included in the calculations. It can be assumed that the total sum of omitted processes does not exceed 5% of all impact categories. In accordance with EN 15804+A2, machines and facilities (capital goods) required for the production as well as transportation of employees were not included in LCA.
Technical purpose of product or process ArmaComfort multilayered product covered by this EPD (ArmaComfort AB AL PUR) is designed to mitigate noise from technical equipment in buildings, industrial environments, vehicles, and marine vessels. Armacell offers a complete range of acoustic insulation products with superior sound reduction qualities. ArmaComfort® AB range combines thin acoustic multilayer solutions with flexible acoustic barriers and different damping or insulation materials in one product with fire performance. These easy-to-install noise control solutions are especially suitable for insulating sanitary wastewater and rainwater pipes, and also fan coil and duct lagging. ArmaComfort AB AL PUR: Multi-layer acoustic insulation material consisting of an aluminum covered EPM-EVA barrier of 2 mm thickness and 4 kg/m² of weight and a decoupling polyurethane foam of 10 mm thickness. Euroclass of this acoustic multilayer: B-s1, d0 -
General comment on data set The data selected for LCA originate from ITB-LCI questionnaires completed by Armacell and verified during data audit. No data collected is older than five years and no generic datasets used are older than ten years. The representativeness, completeness, reliability, and consistency is judged as very good. The background data for the processes come from the following resources database Ecoinvent v.3.11. Specific (LCI) data quality analysis was a part of the input data verification. The allocation rules used for this EPD are based on general ITB’s document PCR A (EN 15804+A2). Input and output data from the production is inventoried and allocated to the production on the mass basis. The declared product’s recipes were used for the calculations, based on specific substances included in the production. All materials and energy consumption inventoried in factory were included in calculation. Office impacts were not taken into consideration. In the assessment, all significant parameters from gathered production data are considered, i.e. all material used per formulation, utilised thermal energy, internal fuel and electric power consumption, direct production waste, and all available emission measurements.

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.
