Product Brief
Powder-coated aluminium profiles are aluminium extrusions that have been given a durable, attractive finish through a powder coating process. This process involves applying an electrostatically charged powder to the aluminium surface, which is then cured under heat to form a tough, protective layer.

Main Findings: GWP-GHG
The Declared Unit (DU) of this LCA is 1 kg and the findings below are expressed as kgCO₂e/DU.
| Impact Category | Unit | A1 | A2 | A3 | A4 | A5 | B1-B7 | C1 | C2 | C3 | C4 | D |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| GWP-GHG | kgCO₂e | 1.27E+01 | 1.46E-02 | 2.53E+00 | 8.03E-02 | ND | ND | 2.14E-02 | 4.99E-03 | 2.30E-01 | 2.49E-03 | -2.01E+00 |
This indicator includes all greenhouse gases, excluding biogenic carbon dioxide uptake and emissions, as well as biogenic carbon stored in the product, as defined by IPCC AR6 (2021). The indicator aligns closely with the Global Warming Potential (GWP) outlined in EN 15804:2012+A2:2019, incorporating updated characterization factors and environmental impact indicators. Reading example: 1.57E-03 = 1.57*10⁻³ = 0.00157.
