Product Product description: Exact insulated blocks have extra insulation, are light in weight and are manufactured with great precision. The strong adhesive joint between the cellular plastic and the light clinker gives the block great strength. The grey cellular plastic together with the light clinker provide exceptional U values. Available in widths 25*, 29, 35 and 4 mm. *Exakt 25 mm insulated blocks are only sold on the Swedish market. Product specification: The composition of the product is described in the table below Technical data: Walling block for walls and pillars in accordance with SS-EN 771-3.

These two tables need to be combined to get result for a complete block, based on information given in the table on page 8. System boundary: All processes from raw material extraction to product from the factory gate are included in the analysis (A1-A3). In addition, transportation to a central warehouse placed in accordance with guidelines issued by the EPD Norway (A4) is included.

Incoming energy and water and waste production inhouse is allocated equally among all products through mass allocation. Effects of primary production of recycled materials allocated to the main product in which the material was used. Cut-off criteria: All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included. The production process for raw materials and energy flows that are included with very small amounts (<,2%) are not included (except packaging). This cut-off rule does not apply for hazardous materials and substances. NEPD-1462-486-EN Blokk Exakt, Lightweight Concrete Block with EPS-insulation 3/8

Key figures to define the impact for different blocks In order to calculate environmental impact for different blocks use the following table with weight information. Additional Norwegian requirements Greenhous gas emission from the use of electricity in the manufacturing phase Electricity use in production is based on consumption figures for 216. Emission data is taken from Ecoinvent 3.3 Electricity, medium voltage {SE} market for Alloc Rec, S (216). Data source Amount Unit Econinvent v3.3 (216) 48 gram CO 2 -eqv/kwh Dangerous substances The product contains no substances given by the REACH Candidate list or the Norwegian priority list The product contains substances given by the REACH Candidate list or the Norwegian priority list that are less than,1 % by weight. The product contain dangerous substances, more then,1% by weight, given by the REACH Candidate List or the Norwegian Priority list, see table. The product contains no substances given by the REACH Candidate list or the Norwegian priority list. The product is classified as hazardous waste (Avfallsforskiften, Annex III), see table. Indoor environment The emission test is based on a representative Exakt Normal block product (35x197x6 mm) and meets the requirements for the recommended class in M1 (ammonia and odour not measured) and Emicode EC1 PLUS. EMICODE EC1 PLUS includes the strongest requirements on low VOC emissions compared to EMICODE EC1 and Blue Angel, AgBB, DIBt and California (Section 135). The product has no detectable impact on the indoor environment. Carbon footprint Carbon footprint has not been worked out for the product.
