It includes the preparation of the precursor materials through to raw material extraction and processing, their transport to the factory and the production itself, including the provision of all supplies and materials, energy, and the complete waste treatment or the residual waste during the stage of production.
A comparison with other products is only allowed by a similar application in the building. In principle, a comparison or evaluation of EPD data is only possible if all the datasets are created to be compared to EN 15804 and the product-specific features are considered.338SCHOTT Technical Glass Solutions GmbH,
Jena (Germany)Foreground system:
The current data set represents information about the manufacturing process of laminated safety glass PYRANOVA® (Module A1-A3) according to the EN 15804.
PYRANOVA® is made of float glass. Fire-protection glass usually is monolithic fire-resistant glass.
The basic manufacturing process is as follows:
• glass pre- products washing and cutting
• putting glass and fire- protecting layers together
• special bonding process
• cutting tape measures
• cleaning cut sizes and adding edge protection tape
• packaging
• transport
Background system:
Electricity: Electricity is modelled according to the individual country-specific situations. The country-specific modelling is achieved on multiple levels. Firstly, individual energy carrier specific power plants and plants for renewable energy sources are modelled according to the current national electricity grid mix. Modelling the electricity consumption mix includes transmission / distribution losses and the own use by energy producers (own consumption of power plants and "other" own consumption e.g. due to pumped storage hydro power etc.), as well as imported electricity. Secondly, the national emission and efficiency standards of the power plants are modelled as well as the share of electricity plants and combined heat and power plants (CHP). Thirdly, the country-specific energy carrier supply (share of imports and / or domestic supply) including the country-specific energy carrier properties (e.g. element and energy content) are accounted for. Fourthly, the exploration, mining/production, processing and transport processes of the energy carrier supply chains are modelled according to the specific situation of each electricity producing country. The different production and processing techniques (emissions and efficiencies) in the different energy producing countries are considered, e.g. different crude oil production technologies or different flaring rates at the oil platforms.
Thermal energy, process steam: The thermal energy and process steam supply is modelled according to the individual country-specific situation with regard to emission standards and considered energy carriers. The thermal energy and process steam are produced at heat plants. Efficiencies for thermal energy production are by definition 100% in relation to the corresponding energy carrier input. For process steam the efficiency ranges from 85%, 90% to 95%. The energy carriers used for the generation of thermal energy and process steam are modelled according to the specific import situation (see electricity above).
Transports: All relevant and known transport processes are included. Ocean-going and inland ship transport as well as rail, truck and pipeline transport of bulk commodities are considered.
Energy carriers: The energy carriers are modelled according to the specific supply situation (see electricity above).
Refinery products: Diesel fuel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, lubricants and residues such as bitumen are modelled with a parameterised country-specific refinery model. The refinery model represents the current national standard in refining techniques (e.g. emission level, internal energy consumption, etc.) as well as the individual country-specific product output spectrum, which can be quite different from country to country. The supply of crude oil is modelled, again, according to the country-specific situation with the respective properties of the resources.Electricity grid mixDiesel mix at refineryDE: Monolithic cut size (Pyrostop® and Pyrodur®) - Pilkington Deutschland AG (A1-A3) ts-EPD (data set not included in documentation) (data set not included in documentation) (data set not included in documentation)Aluminium sheet mixPolyvinyl chloride granulate (Suspension, S-PVC)Thermal energy from natural gasLubricants at refineryWooden pallets (EURO, 40% moisture)Polyethylene Film (PE-HD) without additivesTap water from groundwaterInert matter (Glass) on landfillMunicipal waste water treatment (sludge incineration)PYRANOVA® is as fire protection safety glass is used for applications requiring fire protection, it`s fire resistant time is up to 120 minutes.

Background system: For the combined heat and power production, allocation by exergetic content is applied. For the electricity generation and by-products, e.g. gypsum, allocation by market value is applied due to no common physical properties. Within the refinery allocation by net calorific value and mass is used. For the combined crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids production allocation by net calorific value is applied.
