Main Findings: GWP-GHG
The Declared Unit (DU) of this LCA is 1 metric ton 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 | 2.04E+03 | 5.57E+01 | 4.89E+02 | 1.02E+02 | ND | ND | 8.57E-01 | 2.92E+00 | 3.98E+00 | 1.44E+01 | -1.38E+03 |
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.
