About this factor
Publisher's description
Heradesign panels are wood wool panels in accordance with EN 13168 and/or EN 13964, manufactured from wood wool and mineral binding agents. Product name: HERADESIGN Fine Alpha+ 15mm
Included processes
2.6.1 Raw material Spruce wood is stored as trunks 2 metres in length. Depending on climate conditions, storage lasts around 6-12 months. The trunks are transported by conveyor belts to a multi-rip saw, cut into pieces and processed as wood wool using a planing machine. The binding agent components are stored in steel silos. 2.6.2 Mixer Wood wool, as well as a binding agent and a magnesium sulphate solution, are required for generating a mixture for wood wool pellets. These components are transported to a mixer where they are processed to form the requisite formula. 2.6.3 Scattering and shaping The mixture is scattered onto a steel band and passed through a binding channel, whereby it is separated from the room by a second horizontal steel strip as well as two side strips. An endless product is produced on leaving the twin belt. The raw goods are then cut to the desired length. 2.6.4 Interim storage and picking The products are put into interim storage for 3-5 days (drying and maturing process). The requisite edge design is then produced on so-called double-end profiling machines. Edge processing: 18 standard edges are possible. 2.6.5 Dyeing, packaging and shipping The requisite colour is applied in a dyeing plant, followed by packaging and storage. Dyeing: Possible in many RAL colours (left) Products ready for storage (right) Technical data: Product-specific values can be found at http://www.knaufceilingsolutions.com Declared unit: This EPD refers to a declared unit of 1 m of Heradesign Fine Alpha+ 15 mm (Euroclass B).
