The life cycle analysis (LCA) of the declared products covers: product stage – modules A1-A3, 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 v. 1.6. 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.

General comment
The data selected for LCA analysis originates from ITB-LCI questionnaires completed by VITRINTEC Sp. z o. o. using the inventory data, ITB and Ecoinvent database v. 3.10 and KOBiZE. KOBiZE data is supplemented with Ecoinvent v. 3.10 data on the national electricity mix impact where no specific indicator data is provided. Data for some raw materials can come from available supplier EPDs. 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 sufficient for calculations. The allocation rules used for this EPD are based on general ITB PCR A v. 1.6. Production of aluminium-glass Vitrintec systems is two lines process conducted in the manufacturing plan located in Kielce (Poland). All impacts from raw materials extraction and processing are allocated in A1 module of EPD. Impacts from the Vitrintec production were inventoried on the annual production volume expressed in mass units. The allocation was made on average weight of products. Water and energy consumption, associated emissions and generated wastes are allocated to module A3. Energy supply was inventoried for whole production process. Packaging materials were taken into consideration. The obtained results are representative average for all aluminium-glass systems manufactured in the inventory year at the Kielce manufacturing plant. -

Technical purpose
Vitrintec Sp. z o.o. offers a wide range of non-load-bearing partition wall systems with an aluminum-glass structure, enabling functional division of space. The company's products are characterized by the lowest aluminum profiles on the market and the shortest time needed for their prefabrication and assembly. Glass partition wall systems from Vitrintec Sp. z o.o. are intended for the arrangement of office rooms, public buildings, shopping malls and other places that require the separation of space. They provide an ergonomic division of the interior and compliance with design guidelines. The Pure system: the company's flagship product, consists of a system of single-glazed walls using glass panes, 10 mm or 12 mm thick. A characteristic feature of the system are small aluminum profiles with a depth of 22 mm and a height of 25 mm or 30 mm, which can be painted in any color from the RAL palette. The Pure system is a product that uses a small amount of aluminum, while hiding the seals, which creates the impression of 100% transparency. The maximum height of the walls in the Pure system is 3500 mm. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2021/1816. European Technical Assessment: ETA- 21/0430. The Silence system is a single or double-glazed system that provides a wide range of possibilities for creating bent and broken walls. Its profiles are available in two heights, 25 mm and 30 mm. The depth of the profiles is 78 mm, and the maximum height is 3500 mm. The customer can decide to fill it with laminated or tempered safety glass - 10 mm or 12 mm thick. If the customer cares about high acoustic insulation, they can decide on an acoustic insert, thanks to which they will achieve acoustic insulation at the level of 49 db. The seals in the system remain hidden, creating a minimalist design. Using this solution, you can achieve high acoustic insulation parameters with all-glass walls without mullions. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2021/181. European Technical Assessment: ETA- 21/0430. The Ultra Silence system is a double-glazed, mullion-free partition wall system, in which the structural profiles reach a height of 25 or 30 mm and a depth of 100 mm. Its maximum height is 3500 mm, and the seals are hidden. Double glazing with the simultaneous use of an acoustic insert allows you to achieve high RW acoustic insulation, at a level of 52 dB. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2021/1816. European Technical Assessment: ETA- 21/0430. The In Silence partition wall system is a double-glazed product dedicated to spaces where acoustic comfort is key. The maximum sound insulation for the product is 53 dB, which is ensured by a system of hidden seals. The system is 125 mm wide, and the profiles in In Silence have a height of 30 mm and a depth of 125 mm. The maximum height of the profiles is 3500 mm. Despite the above features, the system remains aesthetic. Fire protection systems Pure FS is a guarantee of safety for every usable surface. This fireproof system of single-glazed walls using interconnected glass panes without glazing bars and minimalist system profiles is designed for the arrangement of very light, transparent glass structures, in which the maximum reduction in the amount of aluminum and invisible seals create the impression of 100% transparency. The system has a fire resistance class EI30 / EW30. The maximum height of the system is 3000 mm, the construction profiles have a height of 30 mm and a depth of 40 mm. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2019/0978. Silence FS is a double-glazed system, consisting of structural profiles 30 mm high and 78 mm deep, in any color from the RAL palette. Its maximum height is 3200 mm, fire resistance EI30/EW30. Easy to install, modular. Hidden seals. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2019/0978. Ultra Silence FS is a double-glazed system. Its structural profiles are 30 mm high and 100 mm deep. The maximum height of the system is 3200 mm, fire resistance - up to EI60/EW60. The system is characterized by an aesthetic and minimalist design, hidden seals. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2019/0978. Pure Loft is a single-glazed, glazing system of aluminum and glass. Its structural profiles are 25 or 30 mm high and 22 mm deep. Its maximum height is 3500 mm. The system has hidden seals, to improve aesthetics it creates the possibility of installing decorative glazing bars, both horizontal and vertical. National Technical Assessment: ITB-KOT-2021/1816. European Technical Assessment: ETA- 21/0430.
