Module by module, up to the total
Seventeen EN 15804 modules, always in the same order. Each declared one moves the running total; carbonation moves it down. D sits below zero after the total, because it is reported beside it.

What it is
Product description and product use Troldtekt® acoustic panels for ceiling and wall cladding help to ensure a pleasant atmosphere where it is possible to talk quietly. The combination of wood and cement becomes Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool and provides the sound-absorbing properties that ensure good acoustics. The acoustic panels are robust and durable, withstand humid environments and provide effective fire protection. Cradle to Cradle Certified® acoustic panels Troldtekt acoustic panels in natural wood and painted in standard colours have achieved gold certification in accordance with the internationally recognised Cradle to Cradle design concept. This means that Troldtekt works strategically with initiatives in five categories: • Material Health • Product Circularity • Clean air & climate protection • Water & Soil Stewardship • Social Fairness A recipe with two ingredients Troldtekt acoustic panels consist of wood and cement. Troldtekt uses only wood from responsible forestry for the production of acoustic panels, and the company is certified according to the two leading standards: FSC® (FSC®C115450) and PEFC™ (PEFC/09-31-030). This means that all Troldtekt acoustic panels have one of the two certifications. The cement ensures the Troldtekt acoustic panels their strength and fire performance. We use two types of cement, both from Aalborg Portland: Traditional white cement and FUTURECEM™. Troldtekt products based on FUTURECEM have the lowest carbon footprint of the two. This EPD relates to Troldtekt acoustic panels (A2) in natural wood and painted in standard colours (based on FUTURECEM cement). CE Marked Products Troldtekt is CE-marked in accordance with both the European standard for cement-bonded wood wool (EN 13168) and the European standard for suspended ceilings (EN 13964).What it includes
Energy modelling principles Foreground system: The product is produced using thermal energy from wood chips for the drying process as well as renewable electricity from wind, covered by GO, in production, petroleum and diesel are used for internal transport with forklifts. Information about the energy mix in the foreground system (emission factor is given as GWP-total): Dataset EF Unit Electricity production, wind, 1-3MW turbine, offshore, ref. year 2024 0,0167 kg CO2e/kWh Heat production, wood chips from industry, at furnace 5000kW, state-of-the-art, ref. year 2024 0,0055 kg CO2e/MJ Market for liquefied petroleum gas 1,1 kg CO2e/kg Market for diesel, burned in building machine 0,1 kg CO2e/MJ Background system: Other processes upstream and downstream from the production are modelled with processes from the Ecoinvent v.3.10.1 database that is based on average data. System boundary This EPD is based on a cradle-to-grave LCA, in which 99,8% of available product mass data and processes has been accounted for. The general rules for the exclusion of inputs and outputs follows the requirements in EN 15804, 6.3.5, where the total of neglected input flows per module shall be a maximum of 5 % of energy usage and mass and 1 % of energy usage and mass for unit processes. Essential characteristics Performance data of the product in accordance with the declaration of performance with respect to its essential characteristics according to EN 13168:2012+A1:2015, Thermal insulation products for buildings. Factory made wood wool (WW) products. Specification, and EN 13964:2014, Suspended ceilings. Requirements and test methods.
