EPD-IES-0031951:001
AMPHIBIA 3000 GRIP
AMPHIBIA 3000 GRIP is a waterproof membrane in EPDM, pre/post-casting, reactive to contact with water, self-repairing, self-sealing and self-clinching to concrete. It is composed of a continuous co-extruded multilayer polymeric mantle, with differentiated functionality for a total watertightness of the underground structures from water infiltration. It is made of three layers with an expansive capacity differentiated by the following characteristics:
-
TIGHT BARRIER, watertight layer
-
CORE, self-sealing expansive safety layer even in the event of a puncture
-
ACTIVE BARRIER, a water-reactive layer with controlled expansion, prevents lateral migration of water and seals overlaps.
It is also equipped on the interface, which comes into contact with the concrete, with a calibrated non-woven fabric that allows the mechanical adhesion of the membrane to the structure.

Data quality assessment
| Description of data quality assessment and reference years | In accordance with EN 15941 and the PCR requirements, a data quality assessment was performed for the datasets contributing to the environmental impact results. The assessment covers data representative of at least 80% of each declared environmental impact indicator and evaluates the geographical, technological, and temporal representativeness of the datasets, as well as their precision, completeness, consistency, and data sources. The quality of the relevant data used for the EPD in terms of its time, geography and technology representativeness using EN 15804:2012+A2:2019, Annex E, E2 produced a DQR (Data Quality Rating) equal to 3.73, corresponding to a "sufficient" quality level. |

As such, the indicator is identical to GWP-total except that the CF for biogenic CO2 is set to zero. | ||||||||||||||||

| Disclaimer 1 | This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. 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. | ||||||||||||||||
