Where 0.171 comes from

Derived by open-climate.ai

Σ 0.171: the two declared modules add up to the total.

Reporting this litre under the GHG Protocol

This period

Scope 3, category 2 0.17

The product becomes part of a building you own. The product and its installation go to category 2 in the year you buy it, the delivery to category 4. Use and end of life are reported in the years they happen.

Later, when it happens

At end of life, in the year of demolition

  • C2 Scope 3, category 5 0.00103

A4, A5, B1 to B7, C1, C3 and C4 are not declared: nothing to report.

Scenarios and units

Some EPDs price a module under several scenarios, such as different end-of-life routes. Each gets a tab, and each module's default is marked.

This factor

One scenario, as declared

Every module has one value, so there is nothing to choose.

Gases

EPD Italy publishes this factor as CO₂e only, with no split by gas. The CO₂e counts fossil, biogenic and land-use carbon together.

From EPD Italy's record to a comparable factor

EPD Italy publishes this EPD with one value per module. Each field as printed, and what open-climate.ai made of it.

The total and its modules

Use a module on its own when you report it in a different year or scope; never add one to the total.

About this factor

From EPD Italy

What it is

1 m3 of expanded polyurethane panel Most of the information (material and energy consumption, atmospheric emissions, dust and waste production) is measured and/or calculated directly at company level by yhe year 2021. The overall quality of the data can be considered very good. Cut-off by classification Infrastructure, plant maintenance and administrative activities were not taken into account.

Where it applies

Thermal insulation panel made of rigid, closed-cell PIR foam, expanded between two supports. For Construction application. ISOLITE VVB HP / POLYPIR BM HP ; ISOLITE VP HP / POLYPIR ST HP
