Aluminium foil, strip and sheet
Use advice for data set The life cycle analysis of the declared product covers “Product Stage” A1-A3, A4-A5, C1-C4+D modules in accordance with EN 15804 and ITB PCR A (cradle to gate with options).
Technical purpose of product or process This declaration covers production of aluminium, foils, strips and sheets. Aluminum rolling mill in Bogumilów, which is a part of the Eko-Swiat Group, offers cold rolled coils manufactured according to the client’s requirements in terms of hardness, dimensions, properties and packaging. The range of service cover cold rolling, thermal processing, surface degreasing, giving the form (embossing - the orange peel), straightening by tension, slitting and cut to lenght. Company has also in the assortment coated products, both in the form of aluminum coils and sheets. All specific product technical data is available at manufacturer website, https://www.eko-swiat.pl/en -
General comment on data set The data selected for LCA originate from ITB-LCI questionnaires completed by producer. No specific data collected is older than five years and no generic datasets used are older than ten years. The representativeness, completeness, reliability, and consistency are judged as good. The background data for the processes come from the following resources: database Ecoinvent v.3.11 and KOBIZE (Polish electricity mix and combustion factors for fuels). KOBIZE data is supplemented with Ecoinvent data on the national electricity mix impact where no specific indicator data is provided. Specific (LCI) data quality analysis was a part of the input data verification. The time related quality of the data used is valid (5 years). The allocation rules used for this EPD are based on general ITB PCR A. The results are the average representative of all aluminium alloys produced in Bogumilów. Averages are obtained through the weighted average. Allocation of impacts is done on product mass basis in both plants. All impacts from aluminium ingots production (and aluminium scrap processing) are allocated in A1 module (see Table 2). Minimum 99% of the impacts from a line production were allocated to the products covered by this declaration. Module A2 includes products specific transport of aluminium ingots to manufacturing plant. Municipal wastes of the factories were allocated to module A3. Emissions in the factories were assessed using Ecoinvent v3.11 data for energy carriers. Minimum 99% input materials and 100% energy consumption (electricity, gas, ON, heat) were inventoried in Bogumilów plants and were included in the calculation. In the assessment, all significant parameters from gathered production data are considered, i.e. all material used per formulation utilized thermal energy, and electric power consumption, direct production waste and available emission measurements. Tires consumption for transport was not taken into account. Substances with a percentage share of less than 1% of total mass were excluded from the calculations. It is assumed that the total sum of omitted processes does not exceed 0.5% of all impact categories. In accordance with EN 15804 machines and facilities 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.
