Glazed Thin Brick Tile

Also known as brick look tile or brick slips, brick tile is a thin brick measuring approximately ½” thick. Because of the thinness of the brick, it can be worked with similar to a conventional ceramic subway tile. Variations due to product size and color have no impact on the LCA methodology results. All products within the family have the same thickness so this LCA study does not account for a range of results.

Not all requirements in the GPI are fulfilled, particularly the requirement, for construction products, to follow EN 15804 for certain aspects of the LCA method. This EPD is based on a PCR that satisfies procurement rules at the federal, state, and municipal levels which call for EPDs based on the UL Part B PCR. The ULPart B PCR was used to meet regulatory (example: Buy Clean California Act, etc.) and market expectations (example: Building Transparency EC3 comparisons, LEED and existing vendor procurement requirements, product scoring programs, etc.). The EPD should not be used outside of this context.
