Name
BAUMIT FLEXMARMOR MEDIO
Technical purpose of product or process BAUMIT FlexMarmor Medio is a factory-made, cement-based tile adhesive mortar of class C2 TE S1. FlexMarmor Medio is used for laying tiles using medium-bed method. It is suitable for laying ceramic tiles, large-format tiles, glass ceramics, marble and other natural stoneware tiles and slabs, both indoors and outdoors. It is suitable at premises with increased thermal and/or static loads, for swimming pools and for tile-on-tile adhesion. It consists of Portland cement, limestone crushed stone and additives. FlexMarmor Medio covers the requirements of the European standard EN 12004. FlexMarmor Medio is packed as a dry mix in bags with unit mass 25 kg.
General comment on data set The information on the production process of the tile adhesive is collected from BAUMIT Bulgaria EOOD. Information on the transport and composition of components is provided by BAUMIT Bulgaria EOOD. Information on the production process of additives is accounted as presented in ecoinvent v.3.6 database. The factory of BAUMIT Bulgaria EOOD in Elin Pelin produces various construction products for external and internal finishing layers of buildings. The manufacturing processes for all tile adhesives are equivalent with slight variance in terms of working regime of drying and mixing stations. Even though, allocation is done regarding energy and fuel use, and generated waste. Environmental impacts, resource use and waste generation are calculated based on yearly data about the inputs/outputs and the yearly production of tile adhesives for 2018. As per EN 15804, in the case that there is not enough information, the process energy and materials representing less than 1% of the energy and mass used per module can be excluded (if they do not cause significant impacts). The addition of all the inputs and outputs excluded is less than 5% of the whole mass and energy used, as well of the emissions to environment occurred. Flows related to human activities such as employee transport are excluded. In accordance with EN 15804 the construction of plants, production of machines and transportation systems are excluded. Environmental burden of the administrative building is partly considered. Collected data covers all components used for the manufacturing of the tile adhesive mixes, electricity consumption and fuels use. The total sum of omitted processes is close to 0% of the whole mass of inputs and outputs.
