This EPD is carried out for Cemfloor binder. The constituent raw materials comprise finely ground calcium carbonate and a proprietary binder, Cemexa. The two materials are blended to make the Cemfloor binder. The Cemfloor binder is manufactured in accordance with EN 12620:2013, Aggregates for concrete. It is not determined as to how the Cemfloor binder is to be processed at the end of life (after 50 years). The Cemfloor binder is combined with water, sand and admixtures and poured on-site to make a self-levelling floor screed. Therefore this module is not considered in this LCA study. As new and improved systems for the recycling of building products are developed over time, these can be determined and then applied to in a future LCA study.

General comment
Data flows have been modelled as realistically as possible. Data quality assessment is based on the principle that the primary data used for processes occurring at the production site is selected in the first instance. Where this is not available, other reference data is selected from appropriate sources. The process descriptions and quantities in this study are reproducible in accordance with the reference standards that have been used. The references of all sources, both primary and public sources and literature, have been documented in the LCA report. In addition, to facilitate the reproducibility of this EPD, a full set of data records has been generated which can be accessed via the Ecochain LCA tool. This data portfolio contains a summary of all the data used in this LCA, and correspondingly, in the Cemfloor LCA account.
