Ownership and limitation on use of EPD
Limitations
EPDs within the same product category but published in different EPD programmes, may not be comparable. For two EPDs to be comparable, they shall be based on the same PCR (including the same first-digit version number) or be based on fully aligned PCRs or versions of PCRs; cover products with identical functions, technical performances and use (e.g. identical declared/functional units); have identical scope in terms of included life-cycle stages (unless the excluded life-cycle stage is demonstrated to be insignificant); apply identical impact assessment methods (including the same version of characterisation factors); and be valid at the time of comparison.
Ownership
The EPD Owner has the sole ownership, liability, and responsibility for the EPD.

Description of the organisation of the EPD Owner
NCC is one of the leading construction and property development companies in the Nordic region, with sales of 62 billion SEK and approximately 11 800 employees in 2024. With the Nordic region as its home market, NCC is active throughout the value chain – developing commercial properties and constructing housing, offices, industrial facilities and public buildings, roads, civil engineering structures and other types of infrastructure. NCC also offers input materials used in construction and accounts for paving and road services. NCC works to reduce both our own and our customers’ environmental impact and continues to further refine our offerings with additional products and solutions in line with this. NCC’s sustainability work is based on a holistic approach with all three dimensions of sustainability – social, environmental and economical. NCC´s sustainability framework is divided into eight impact areas: Data and expertise, Natural resources and biodiversity, Materials and circularity, Climate and energy, Health and safety, People and team, Ethics and compliance and Economic performance. NCC reports on its sustainability progress each year and the report has been included in NCC’s Annual Report since 2010. NCC applies Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards, the voluntary guidelines of the GRI for the reporting of sustainability information. In addition to GRI, NCC also reports the Group’s emission of greenhouse gases to the CDP each year. NCC is a member in BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative), which is the broadest business-driven platform for the improvement of social compliance in the global supply chain and has been a member of the UN Global Compact since 2010. The UN Global Compact is a strategic policy initiative for businesses that are committed to aligning their operations and strategies with 10 defined and universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, labour, environment and anti-corruption.

| LCA Software | LCA for Experts (formerly GaBi Software) N/A |
| Additional information about the underlying LCA-based information | Assumptions and approximations - When a transport distance is unknown, 100 km is used. This is mainly applied to mate-rials which have a minor contribution in terms of weight compared to the total weight of the product. - For one screen, the known number of engine hours is multiplied by 20 litres per hour to calculate the diesel use. The average diesel use for the screen is provided by the operational expert. - An amount of engine oil is assumed based on the number of services carried out for machinery at the site. For yellow machinery, 65 litres per service is estimated while for screens, 25 litres per service is used. Allocation The electricity consumption is known for the production process as a whole. Allocation of electricity is made based on knowledge from the operational expert about the relative energy consumption of the machines using electricity. The fuel consumption is known specifically for some process steps, since it’s known which machines are used specifically in those process steps. In combination with knowing what pro-cess steps each product go through, this use of fuel is allocated between the products. Some machines are however used in several process steps and it’s therefore difficult to allo-cate this specific use of fuel to certain process steps. Regarding this use of fuel, as well as fuel used for general activities on site, fuel is allocated based on information from the operational expert working on the site. |

| Brief description of the default scenario in module D | Replacing primary production of virgin aggregates |
| Description of the default scenario in module D | The net load relates to the transport of the excavated material. This is assumed to be 3 km transported by a small truck (approximately 9 tonnes payload capacity). The benefit gained is equal to the virgin aggregates that are substituted. This is assumed to replace the product group with the lowest environmental impact produced at the site (module A1-A3) (conservative assumption). |

Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator. | ||||||||||||||||
| Disclaimer 2 | The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties of these results are high or as there is limited experience with the indicator. | ||||||||||||||||
