EPD: Panel system, per m2 of workspace, 66.6 kg/m2 workspace, Answer (Steelcase)
The typical model chosen for this analysis is an open plan layout for the Answer Panel System divided into twenty-two sub-assemblies, all covered by this assessment. The Answer Workstation configuration was chosen for this assessment based on sales. The assessed configuration consists of two panels with tack able acoustic fabric skins, L-shape desktop, and a freestanding desk as worksurface, a side pedestal, an overhead bin, and an overhead shelf as storage. The desks are not height adjustable. Power assemblies can be added but for this assessment they are excluded. Answer does not offer any task lights. The physical floor space of this configuration is 2.41 m2 and it provides 2.96 m2 of work surface and 0.28 m3 of storage space. There is one freestanding desk, excluded of the floorspace estimation, as specified in PCR. If the freestanding desk was included, the floorspace would be 3.3 m2. The material composition for the product only is shown in the graphic below and details per product and packaging are broken down in the following tables.
