| Use advice for data set | Scope: This LCA is based on data for the 2017 financial year and was collected in the Wiener Neudorf plant. System boundary: This is a “cradle-to-gate, with options” EPD. This LCA addresses the life cycle stages A1 – A3, C3 and D in accordance with /EN 15804/. The product stage comprises the production of all requisite raw materials including all upstream chains as well as CO2 absorption by raw materials (wood growth through photosynthesis). The next processes involve production of the Compact panel including the provision of energy taking consideration of the corresponding upstream chains. All necessary transport for raw materials and ancillaries is considered in the LCA. The emission of biogenic C02 bound in the product is listed in Module C3, thereby safeguarding CO2 neutrality within the product system. After use, the product is disposed of in a waste incineration plant which generates thermal energy and electricity. The ensuing effects are declared in Module C3 and the potential energy substitution is declared in Module D. | ||
| Technical purpose of product or process | Compact panels can be used in both public and private applications. They are particularly suitable for residential applications, hospitals, public buildings, train stations and airports, for public transport, hotels, schools, business premises, sports facilities and industrial applications. Their special features enable the use of HPL in interior applications as wall panelling, railing infills, furniture, tables, column cladding, laboratory facilities, cabins, ceilings, window sills, worktops, business consoles, washstands etc. | ||

| General comment on data set | FunderMax Compact panels are high-pressure decorative laminate panels (HPL) in accordance with /EN 438 – Part 4/ (MAX Compact Interior) and /EN 438 – Part 6/ (MAX Compact Exterior) for use as wall and ceiling panelling as well as furniture panels in interior and exterior applications. High-pressure decorative laminates are manufactured from cellulosic fibrous material and thermosetting resins. They can be produced in various colours, patterns and surface textures. MAX Compact Interior and MAX Compact Exterior can be glued, screwed or riveted to metal and wood substructures. A variety of other fastening and connecting materials can also be used. | ||

| Technology description including background system | Decorative high-pressure laminate HPL according to EN 438, consisting of decorative surface layers and core layers, which are connected to each other using a high-pressure process. Typical values for the high-pressure process are a temperature of ≥ 120 °C and a pressure of ≥ 5 MPa. Surface layer : top decorative layer consisting of one or more layers of fibrous material (usually paper) impregnated with aminoplastic, thermosetting resins (usually melamine resins) or other thermosetting resins, possibly with a suitable outer layer or coating to improve the properties with regard to weather and lightfastness Core layer fibrous material (usually paper) impregnated with thermosetting resins (usually phenolic resins) or other suitable thermosetting resins Declared unit: The declared unit is one square metre of FunderMax Compact panel (8.21 mm thick and density of approx. 1450 kg/m3). In accordance with the PCR, the declared unit comprises one Compact panel (excluding packaging) with a basis weight of 11.9 kg/m2. The packaging and transport of packaging is analysed but is not part of the declared unit. | ||
