Use advice for data set Scope: This EPD is representative and relevant for Promatect-MST®, Promarine 450T®, Promarine 640T®, Supalux M1®, Promatect-MT®, Vermiculux T®, Promatect-MLT®, Promasil® 1100 Super and Promasil® 1000L boards produced by ETEX in Tisselt (Belgium) and installed in Europe. The data describing the direct inputs and outputs of the foreground processes are representative for ETEX production in Tisselt, Belgium, and taken from the period of one year between October 2020 and September 2021. The results in this EPD are based on Promatect-MST®. In the LCA background report the representativeness of Promatect-MST® has been checked by comparing the LCA results of Promatect-MST® with the LCA results of the other products included in the scope of the EPD. System boundary: Cradle-to-gate with options, including modules C2-C4 and D
Technical purpose of product or process Promatect-MST®, Supalux M1®, Promatect-MT®, Vermiculux T®, Promatect-MLT® boards are versatile multi-purpose fire protection boards, for multiple applications: * FIRE-RATED ASSEMBLIES: Building and industrial construction, among other things for fire dampers and smoke extraction dampers, fire doors and metal profile insulator Promarine 450T®, Promarine 640T® * A, B & C Class divisions * Compartmentations * Linings * Non-combustible furniture Promasil® 1100 Super and Promasil® 1000L * Aluminium industry: anode baking furnace and electrolysis cells * Steel industry: smelting and heat treatment furnaces * Glass industry: melting furnaces, heat treatment and foming furnaces * Ceramics industry: bogie hearth furnaces, kiln cars * Cement industry: heat exchangers and cyclone separators * Oil and gas industry: fired heaters pipe supports

General comment on data set Promatect-MST®, Promarine 450T®, Promarine 640T®, Supalux M1®, Promatect-MT®, Vermiculux T®, Promatect-MLT®, Promasil® 1100 Super and Promasil® 1000L. This EPD describes the life cycle analysis of different Promat products for fire protection. The product ranges under consideration are the cement-bounded medium-density calcium silicate fire protective boards. In detail, the investigated products are 9 for this range, including Promatect MT®, Promatect MST®, Promatect MLT®, Promarine 450T®, Promarine 640T®, Supalux M1®, Vermiculux T®, Promasil® 1100 Super and Promasil® 1000L. The boards are self-supporting, non-combustible, asbestos-free and moisture-resistant calcium silicate fire protection boards for a variety of applications. The products differentiate by individual densities and the ratios of included raw materials to meet the technical requirements of individual applications. The function of these fire protective boards is generally equal being the provision of structural fire protection. This can be by covering walls, floorings, and ceilings in buildings, by covering structural steelwork or by constructing fire-resistant ducts and same applications apply to Promarine boards within the Marine sector.

Technological representativeness
Technology description including background system There is only one manufacturing plant of the declared products being the manufacturing plant in Tisselt (Belgium). The products are all produced on the same type of production line. All raw materials, including previously made xonotlite slurries, together with a balanced amount of water are mixed to form a slurry, and shaped by a filter press to produce a wet board. It is steam cured in an autoclave to form required calcium silicate minerals suitable for the end application. Final steps are the drying, cutting and sanding/finishing. During the cutting and finishing, scrap is produced which is partly recycled, both internally and externally, and partly landfilled. Declared unit: 1 m2 of Promatect-MST® with a thickness of 40 mm.

1This 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.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
