| Use advice for data set | Scope: This document covers the two-component reaction resin mortar "EP 500". To prepare the life cycle assessment [LCA], specific data were collected from the Chemofast Anchoring GmbH manufacturing facility in Willich, Germany. The assessment is based on data from 2020 which correspond to the yearly average. System boundary: Type of EPD: Cradle to factory gate with options. The following information modules are defined as system boundaries in this study: Production stage (A1–A3): • A1, Raw material extraction, • A2, Transport to the manufacturer, • A3, Manufacturing. End of life (C1-C4): C1, Deconstruction/demolition, C2, Transport, C3, Waste processing, C4, Disposal. Reuse, recovery and recycling potential (D) To precisely determine the indicators and environmental impacts of the declared unit, a total of 8 information modules are considered. The information modules A1 to A3 describe the material provision, the transport to the production site, as well as the production processes of the product itself. The precursor products are sourced from Germany. Transport is exclusively done by truck. The following process diagrams illustrate the underlying production process. Figure 1 Information modules A1 to A3 of the product Figure 2 Information modules A1 to A3 of the packaging Information modules C1 to C4 document deconstruction/demolition for removal from the building, transport to waste disposal, waste processing and product disposal. Reuse, recovery and recycling potential are documented in information module D. | ||
| Technical purpose of product or process | The EP 500 injection system is used to safely secure threaded rods and post-mortared rebar connections in cracked anduncracked C20/25 to C50/60 concrete for a useful life of upto 50 years, and is suitable for installation in hammer-drilledholes (standard SDS and hollow bit) at environmentaltemperatures between 5°C and 40°C.The EP 500 system has ETA assessments for anchoring fromM8 to M30 and for rebar connections from 8mm to 40mm, andcan be rated for fire conditions. | ||

| Technology description including background system | The declared product is the two-component reaction resin mortar "EP 500", manufactured by Chemofast Anchoring GmbH. The declared unit is based on 1 kg reaction resin product in the ratio at which the two components must be mixed before use. The packaging is also included in the calculation, since the product is sold by Chemofast with its packaging. The declared unit is indicated in [kg]. Technical data: The following structural properties are relevant for the declared product EP 500 as delivered: Declared unit: The product declared is a two-component reaction resin mortar manufactured by Chemofast Anchoring GmbH with the product name EP 500. The declared unit is based on 1 kg reaction resin product in the ratio at which the two components must be mixed before use. The mass mixing ratio between the resin component and the curing agent component is 4:1 (volume ratio 3:1). The packaging is also included in the calculation at 0.1435 kg per 1 kg of reaction resin product. The declared unit data are presented in the table below: | ||
