About this factor

From EPD Danmark

Hansen UnitAl is a prefabricated system for facades and roof. Prefab reduces the time on the building site and moves the processes to controlled conditions. This ensures a shorter lead time on the building site. UnitAl is usually manufactured in widths of 3.000 mm and one full floor height. The width is chosen due to transportation. Good planning and performance at the site can close up to 400 m² facade on one day Facade elements with 160 mm Al-profiles based on “Hydro 4.0 Aluminium Extrusion Ingot” (REDUXA) covered by the EPD: NEPD-1840-468-EN, and triple glass of the type 6-18-4-18-4 (regarding UnitAlglass).
