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.
One scenario, as declared
Every module has one value, so there is nothing to choose.

About this factor
From EPD Italy
What it is
1 m3 of expanded polystyrene panel Primary and site-specific data (bills of materials, component weights, energy consumption, waste generation, emissions) were provided by Ediltec Insulation Spa with reference to the year 2022. For other data (e.g. transport models and component raw material models) secondary/generic data from the Ecoinvent 3.9.1 database were used. Proxies were used for the composition of some of the raw material inputs, weighing less than 5 %. The impact allocation procedure for recycling follows the ‘LCA Cut-off by classification’ model where impacts are directly assigned to the product generating them. In accordance with the cut-off rules stated in the product-specific requirements, the following exclusions were made from the system boundaries: - Capital goods such as buildings, machinery, tools and infrastructure; - Packaging for internal transport; - General administrative activities (business travel, marketing and advertising etc.) that cannot be allocated directly to the production of the relevant product; - Production, use and disposal of component and semi-finished intermediate packaging; - Constituent materials whose total mass does not exceed 1% of the total weight of the product;What it includes
