About this factor
Publisher's description
This data set contains the results for modules A1-A3 and modules A4, A5, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, C1, C2, C3, C4, D. The environmental profile contains the expenditure for the cradle to gate with options life cycle stages (modules A + selected B-modules + C + D). The production of the packaging was taken into account within modules A1-A3.
Included processes
The life cycle assessment results cover the life cycle stages from the manufacture of primary products to the extraction of raw materials and processing of secondary materials used as input (e.g. recycling processes), their transportation to the plant and the production itself, including the provision of all auxiliary and operating materials, energy, as well as the complete waste treatment or landfilling of residual waste during the production stage. Modules A1, A2 and A3 are shown here as an aggregated module A1-A3. If further modules were calculated for this data set, these can be found separately and can be combined for a consideration of the entire life cycle.
Applicability
Profile system System dimensions: • Face widths: 50, 56 mm • Mullion/transom construction depth: 25 – 250 mm • Total construction depth: 50 – 365 mm • Glass/panel thickness: 4 – 64 mm • Max. panel element weights: 600 kg Aluminum profiles with visible widths of 50 mm and 56 mm. Mullion/transom construction depth of 25 – 250 mm. The LCA results are based on the use of RAICO Ultra Low Carbon Aluminum – RULCA® with a minimum of 75% recycled content (post-consumer) as part of a quota system. Opening type / opening direction: Fixed glazing, can be combined with all RAICO opening elements. Frame material: Aluminium Construction Method: Mullion/transom construction Fold seal : PE insulators Surface: Anodized, wet or powder coated. Glazing seal: Extruded sealing profiles made of EPDM/silicone. Filling: IGU, panels Accessories and fittings: Accessories and quantities in accordance with RAICO systems.
