EPD: Aluminium sectional door with electric drive, 40-60 mm, ALU 40 (Novoferm Nederland Holding B.V.)
ALU 40/60 is a sectional door which consist of aluminium panels fitted with acrylic glazing. Scope and type: Sectional doors are assembled in the Netherlands and sold on the European market. The type of EPD is Cradle-to-grave in which all modules are included. SimaPro 9.3 was used to perform the LCA calculations. The data used in the module is sourced from Ecoinvent 3.6 and the NMD basisprocessendatabase 3.5. The results are calculated with the exclusion of long-term emissions. PRODUCT STAGE CONSTRUCTION USE STAGE END OF LIFE BENEFITS AND PROCESS STAGE LOADS BEYOND THE STAGE SYSTEM BOUNDARIES X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X = Modules Assessed ND = Not Declared LCA process diagram according to EN 15804 7.2.1 Representativeness: This EPD is representative for sectional doors, type ALU with electric drive, produced by Alpha Deuren in The Netherlands for use in the European market. Calculation rules: The results in the EPD are representative of the ALU 40 door. Results for thicknesses of 60 mm can be calculated by making use of the scaling formula presented below. The scaling formula is a linear relationship with the structure: Y = A*x + C. x is the thickness in mm. Name A value C value Linear scaling formula 0.05055 11.810487 Cut-off rules: The following processes are considered below cutoff: Ł Maintenance and the use of auxiliary materials and equipment, with exception of such processes that are included in the Ecoinvent background processes. Ł Capital goods and infrastructure processes, with exception of such processes that are included in the Ecoinvent background processes. Only the processes considered below cut-off are excluded from the study. No additional processes are excluded. Scenarios and additional technical information A1 - Extraction of raw materials and processing of intermediate products: This module considers the extraction and processing of all raw materials and energy which occur upstream to the Alpha Deuren manufacturing process, as well as waste processing up to the end-of waste state. This includes manufacturing of intermediate products such as the steel / PUR panels. A2 - Transport to production location: This includes the transport distance of the raw materials and intermediate products to the manufacturing facility via road. A3 - Production: This module takes into account the manufacturing of sectional doors and includes all processes linked to the production such as assembly and packaging. The results for A4 are given for a transport scenario within the Netherlands 150 km, but a score per 1 km is also given so that users may calculate the impact of transport to an exact location, elsewhere in the European market. Declaration of SVHC: The sectional door does not contain any substances of very high consern SVHC. More information: https://www.alpha-deuren.nl/en/category/industrial-door s/
