All products included are treated solid hard wood mouldings. These are: Treated Beech moulding (representative product), Treated Ash moulding and Treated Birch moulding.
Multiple products:
All products included in this EPD are treated wood mouldings. Three variations are included in this product group, and they all consist of 87% solid hard wood and 13% lacquer. The included products differ only in wood species (Ash, Beech and Birch), which results in minor variations in density. The density of the included species ranges from 650 kg/m³ to 710 kg/m³, corresponding to a variation of about 9%.
Since the declared unit is 1 kg of product, the environmental impacts are calculated per mass. Differences in density therefore do not directly affect the results per declared unit, as the assessment is normalised to 1 kg moulding. All included products are modelled with a hard wood dataset with the same reference moisture content of 8% ± 2%. The included products also share the same geographical scope and production site.
The Treated Beech moulding was chosen as the representative product, as it accounts for >70% of the total production volume within this product group.
The deviation of the GWP-GHG value relative to the representativeproduct can be seen in “Additional LCA results”, as well as the variation ofthe environmental impact indicator results for modules A-C between any of theproducts that exceeds 10%.
