8 In conformance with the PCR, product materials were reviewed for the presence of any hazardous chemicals. A review of Material Data Safety Sheets (MSDS) provided by the manufacturer reveals the presence of the following regulated chemicals in one or more of the products (this does not indicate that the threshold for reportable quantities is exceeded): Calcium carbonate (CAS# ) Styrene (CAS# ) Methacrylic Acid (CAS # ) Silica (CAS# ) Fiber Glass Continuous Filament (CAS# ) PRODUCTION OF MAIN MATERIALS Calcium Carbonate: An abundant mineral found worldwide a common substance found in rocks. It can be ground into varying particle sizes. Cork: An impermeable buoyant material sourced from the phellem layer of bark tissue that is harvested from the cork oak tree (Quercus suber). IXPE: Irradiation cross-linked polyethylene foam based on low density polyethylene as a raw material. LP-90: A synthetic styrene resin used as an aid for acrylic processing to ensure fusion homogeneity. Plasticizer: Plasticizers are used to make vinyl soft flexible. Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) was used in the life cycle assessment model to represent plasticizers used to manufacture products covered by this EPD, specifically Diisooctyl terephthalate (DOTP). Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): Derived from fossil fuel salt. Petroleum or natural gas is processed to make ethylene, salt is subjected to electrolysis to separate out the natural element chlorine. Ethylene chlorine are combined to produce ethylene dichloride, which is further processed into vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) gas. Finally, in polymerization the VCM molecule forms chains, converting the gas into fine, white powder vinyl resin. Stabilizers: Stabilizers are used to prevent the decomposition which occurs as PVC is heated to soften during the extrusion or molding process. Stabilizers also provide enhanced resistance to daylight, weathering heat aging have an important influence on the physical properties of PVC. 7

11 LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT A cradle to grave life cycle assessment (LCA) was completed for this product group in accordance with ISO 14040, ISO 14044, ISO 21930, Product Category Rule for Environmental Product Declarations for Flooring: Carpet, Resilient, Laminate, Ceramic, Wood (Version 2). FUNCTIONAL UNIT The functional unit is, according to the PCR, the total impact for the expected life of the building (60 years). But the service life is dependent on the product lifetime, which is 20 years in this case. The PCR consequently requires separate reporting of LCA results A) for 1 m 2 of floor covering - extraction/processing, manufacturing, delivery installation end of life, B) the average 1- year use stage, C) for the 60 year life of the building as combined using A) B), calculated from the reference service life (RSL) of the product SCSglobalServices.com
