DIN EN 16783:2017-07 EN 16783:2017 (E) 4 Introduction This European Standard provides rules for
22、 the assessment and quantification of parameters describing the environmental impact of thermal insulation products to prepare environmental product declarations. It defines complementary product category rules for thermal insulation products based on the core rules for all construction products est
23、ablished in EN 15804. These rules are intended to be used in conjunction with EN 15804. These PCR apply to all CEN/TC 88 thermal insulation product Standards (EN 13162 to EN 13171, EN 14063-1, EN 14064-1, EN 14303 to EN 14309, EN 14313, EN 14314, EN 14315-1 to EN 14320, EN 14933, EN 14934, prEN 1510
24、0-1, EN 15101-1, EN 15501, EN 15599-1, EN 15600-1, EN 15732, EN 16069) in order to minimize intra-sectoral deviations. These PCR are also valid for thermal insulation products outside of CEN/TC88 and for thermal insulation products involved in other CEN TCs. As in EN 15804, the results from the asse
25、ssment are expressed following the modularity principle in a form that allows aggregation (addition) to provide complete information for construction works. These PCR do not deal with aggregation at the construction works level nor does it describe the rules for applying the environmental parameters
26、 in a construction works assessment. The reduction in energy used and the reduction of emissions produced during the installed life of insulation products exceed by far the energy used and in most cases the emissions occurring during the production, installation and disposal processes. Clause 5.4 of
27、 this European Standard provides the rules for declaration of any such benefits as additional information. NOTE The titles of the clauses in this European Standard follow the EN 15804 to enhance readability. DIN EN 16783:2017-07 EN 16783:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard provides the product
28、 category rules (PCR) for Type III environmental declarations (as in EN 15804) for factory made and in situ thermal insulation products. Complementary to EN 15804, the PCR described in this European Standard: specify the declared unit to be used; define the system boundaries for thermal insulation p
29、roducts; specify/describe the default scenarios and rules for defining scenarios for certain life cycle information modules. These PCR are intended to be used for cradle to gate, cradle to gate with options or cradle to grave assessment, provided the intention is properly stated in the system bounda

35、cts As in EN 15804 and the Scope of this European Standard. 5.2 Types of EPD with respect to life cycle stages covered These PCR identify three main families of EPD: 1) EPD for factory made insulation products; 2) EPD for products intended to be used as in situ insulation products excluding installa
36、tion; 3) EPD for products to be used as in situ insulation products including installation. To be in compliance with this European Standard, the declaration of the product stage modules A1-A3 is required as a minimum for those thermal insulation products that have their applicable technical characte
37、ristics (e.g. thermal resistance) at the factory gate. In addition, for in situ formed thermal insulation products that establish their applicable technical characteristics after activities on site, the declaration of Module A5 “installation” of the construction process stage is also required. The d
38、eclaration of the modules of the other life cycle stages is optional. For each of these EPD, mandatory and voluntary stages to be covered are described as in Figure 1. DIN EN 16783:2017-07 EN 16783:2017 (E) 7 Key m mandatory o optional i mandatory provision of scenario description and technical info
39、rmation Figure 1 Modules 1) EPD for factory made thermal insulation products: a cradle to gate EPD: modules A1, A2 and A3 mandatory; a cradle to gate EPD with options: modules A1, A2 and A3 mandatory, the other modules optional (i.e. cradle to gate and selected further life cycle stages) ; a cradle
40、to grave EPD: modules A to C mandatory DIN EN 16783:2017-07 EN 16783:2017 (E) 8 2) EPD for products intended to be used as in situ thermal insulation excluding installation: a cradle to gate EPD: modules A1, A2 and A3 mandatory and a mandatory description of a scenario for module A5 including the ne
41、cessary activities to obtain the final insulation product out of the product; a cradle to gate EPD with options: modules A1, A2 and A3 mandatory, a mandatory description of a scenario for module A5 including the necessary activities to obtain the final insulation product out of the product. The othe
42、r modules optional (i.e. cradle to gate and selected further life cycle stages); a cradle to grave EPD: modules A to C mandatory. 3) EPDs for products to be used as in situ thermal insulation products including installation: a cradle to gate EPD with options: modules A1, A2, A3 and A5 mandatory, the
43、 other modules optional (i.e. cradle to gate and selected further life cycle stages); a cradle to grave EPD: modules A to C mandatory. 5.3 Comparability of EPD for construction products In principle, the comparison of products on the basis of their EPD is defined by the contribution they make to the
44、 environmental performance of the construction works. Consequently comparison of the environmental performance of construction products using the EPD information shall be based on the products use in and its impacts on the construction works, and shall consider the complete life cycle (all informati
45、on modules). NOTE This is especially true for insulation products of which their main purpose is to reduce the energy consumption in the use stage of buildings. Since the reduction of the environmental impacts due to energy savings during the use stage is in most cases much higher than the environme
46、ntal impacts of the insulation products themselves, it makes more sense to focus on good performance on building level during use than on comparing insulation products. End use applications are defined in Annex A. Cradle to grave analyses shall describe all relevant requirements for the end-use appl
47、ication of the product. 5.4 Additional information As in EN 15804 and additional Annex A of this European Standard. If benefits of insulation products due to energy saving during the installed life are reported in relation to the environmental performance of a building, they shall be reported as add
48、itional information. The environmental impacts shall be calculated using EN 15978. The benefit is the difference between the impacts of at least two insulation levels for the same building considered over the whole life cycle. The scenarios shall be fully described in the EPD and sufficient informat
49、ion given to the verifier to verify this. 5.5 Ownership, responsibility and liability for the EPD A manufacturer or a group of manufacturers are the sole owners and have liability and responsibility for an EPD. 5.6 Communication formats The communication format of the EPD shall be in accordance with EN 15942.
