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.
Additional limitations according to c-PCR: Comparability between EPDs is only achievable if the following performance characteristics are equivalent: declared unit, containment level, level of working width, assumed service life, geographic region and fulfilment of the same requirements of the applicable standard (EN 13964:2014).
Ownership
The EPD Owner has the sole ownership, liability, and responsibility for the EPD.

Description of the organisation of the EPD Owner
Producer and seller of indoor cladding systems for wall and ceilings. Gustafs speciality is using reinforced fibre gypsum boards and covering them with a thin layer of real wood veneer. This results in an outstanding fire safety, acoustics and low indoor emissions. Established 1913 and since then producing in Gustafs, Sweden. Gustafs uses an own developed Quality Management System called GSB. The system permeates the whole organization and comprises all processes. The GSB Management Systems includes both Quality, FSC chain of custody and the consistency of performance of Gustafs Reaction to Fire Certifications. The Management System is verified by a notified body on an annual interval in relation to FSC. The Notified body is SCS/Intertek.

| Additional information about the underlying LCA-based information | This EPD is generated with the fully pre-verified EPD tool, Tyrens EPD generator- Gustafs- 4.0.0. The verifier is Daniel Böckin, Miljögiraff AB. Cut-off: All underlying processes modeled follow the ISO standard and are called “cut-off” in Ecoinvent. The basis for allocation according to cut-off is that the first primary product always bears the environmental burden for its entire production. No know flows have been excluded based on cut‑off criteria; all relevant material and energy flows have been considered in accordance with EN 15804. Allocation: Manufacturing processes are allocated to the products using mass allocation. |

| Characterisation methods | EF 3.1 |
| Technology description including background system | The raw materials in A1 are fibre gypsum, Veneer, kraft paper, glue, UV-sealer, PET Felt and aluminum profiles. These main materials can be used in different combination in installed acoustic panel on ceiling or wall systems. Gustafs mount and deliver various combinations and packaging material is wooden pallet. The transport distance in A2 is fixed and the transport mode is trucks. In A3, the production consists of assembling the raw material into acoustic panel . The products are packaged before being sent to the customer. The factory is in Sweden |
| Scrap (recycled material) inputs contribution level | Less than 10% of the GWP-GHG results in modules A1-A3 come from scrap inputs |
Data quality assessment
| Description of data quality assessment and reference years | When modeling in Simapro, Ecoinvent data (updated November 2024) has been used for secondary data. The database is considered to be of high quality. For three materials product specific and third party verified EPD’s has been used. The EPD’s used is of high quality. Indata gathered from the actual manufacturing plant with product-specific processes, specific amounts, specific waste, and spillage %, specific energy mix, specific transportation distances and transportation type and EPD’s are primary data. Primary data are collected directly from supplier and production site. The reference year is 2023-2024. |

| Explanatory name of the default scenario in module D | Recycling and incineration |
|---|---|
| Brief description of the default scenario in module D | Replacing district heating production and primary production of gypsum and aluminium. |
| Description of the default scenario in module D | For aluminium, module D was calculated by considering the impact from producing primary aluminium ingot that the recycled aluminium would replace. For fibre gypsum was module D was calculated by considering the impact from producing the amount of virgin fibre gypsum that the recycling process would replace. All wood and plastic is energy recovered is incinerated in a combined heat and power plant. The produced district heating and electricity thus replace average Swedish electricity and district heating. |
