Product information
| Product name | Architectural aluminium extrusion profiles |
|---|---|
| Product identification | This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is the specific product EPD, just for architectural aluminium extrusion profiles with surface treatment of coating. |
| Product description | This report is for architectural aluminium extrusion profiles with surface treatment. The powder spraying treatment is a dry surface treatment procedure, in which extremely fine pigment particles are electrostatically treated and sprayed onto the product to form a layer, which is formed after solidification in a curing oven. This treatment has a beautiful surface, durability, scratch resistance, chemical resistance, UV protection, and no waste liquid discharge, perfect corner coverage effect. |
| Product information from external sources | https://www.chinamoshell.com |
| Technical purpose of product | Architectural aluminum extrusion profiles are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of contemporary construction. Despite their lightweight nature, these profiles exhibit exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, enabling them to withstand structural stresses without compromising on agility during installation. Their inherent resistance to corrosion—whether from moisture, UV exposure, or environmental pollutants—ensures longevity even in harsh climates, from coastal areas to industrial zones. |
| Manufacturing or service provision description | The manufacturing process of Jianbang’s architectural aluminium extrusion profiles mainly includes preheating, extrusion, cutting & aging, surface treatment and packaging. |

Module C: End-of-life
| Explanatory name of the default scenario in module C | End-of-life scenario |
|---|---|
| Brief description of the default scenario in module C | Default data from PCR and Australia's recycling ratio are used for modules C1-C4. |
| Description of the default scenario in module C | 80km of road transportation for products or materials not to be incinerated (C2) from building site to waste treatment site is defaulted. As the processes in demolition/deconstruction (C1), waste processing (C3) and disposal (C4), default data is also used according to PCR. According to data from Australian Aluminium Council - Scrap Aluminium Recycling in Australia, more than 95% of Australia’s scrap aluminium is exported for recycling. Then, a waste management scenario of 5% landfill and 95% recycling was adopted for the waste disposal. |

| Collected with mixed construction waste | 1 | kg |
| Waste transportation (from building site to MSW treatment site) | 80 | km |
| Waste processing treatment(Loading and unloading at sorting facility) | 1.8 | kWh |

Module D: Beyond product life cycle
| Explanatory name of the default scenario in module D | Benefits and loads |
|---|---|
| Brief description of the default scenario in module D | Benefits and loads |
| Description of the default scenario in module D | According to the PCR, Module D assesses the impact of the net flows of recovered materials (recycled or reused) from the life cycle stages A to C, the net flow can be described by the difference between M MR in and M MR out. In this LCA study, secondary material like recycled aluminium used in alu billets production was used in the production stage, so the M MR in is 0.65 kg. As it is referred above, 95 % of waste aluminium is recycled, which means that M MR out is 0.95kg. So, for 1kg architectural aluminium extrusion profiles, 0.3 kg aluminium was considered as net flow to assess the impacts. |

Module C: End-of-life
| Description of the additional scenario in module C | It is assumed that 100% of the wastes send to the landfill site. 50km of road transportation for products or materials not to be incinerated (C2) from building site to waste treatment site is defaulted. As the processes in demolition/deconstruction of steel, wood, and other materials (C1), waste processing (C3) and disposal (C4), default data is also used according to PCR. |
|---|
| Module C information | Value | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Collected with mixed construction waste | 1 | kg |

|---|---|
| Description of the additional scenario | 100% incineration at end-of-life stage |
Module C: End-of-life
| Description of the additional scenario in module C | It is assumed that 100% of the wastes are incinerated. 130km of road transportation for products or materials to be incinerated (C2) from building site to waste treatment site is defaulted. As the processes in demolition/deconstruction of steel, wood, and other materials (C1), waste processing (C3) and disposal (C4). |

| Waste transportation (from building site to MSW treatment site) | 130 | km |
| Loading and unloading at sorting facility | 1.8 | kWh |
| Mechanical sorting | 2.2 | kWh |
| Treatment of other materials | 0.8 | kWh |
Module D: Beyond product life cycle
| Description of the additional scenario in module D | According to the literature, the incineration of waste aluminium products does not generate calorific value. Therefore, the module D is 0. |
