Comparison of the environmental performance of products usingEPD information shall be based on the product’s use and impacts at the building level, and therefore EPDs may not be used for comparability purposes whennot considering the whole building life cycle. EPD comparability is only possible when all stages of a life cycle have been considered. However, variations anddeviations are possible. Example of variations: Different LCA software and background LCI datasets may lead to differences results for upstream ordownstream of the life cycle stages declared.

Data QualityThe quality of inventory data is evaluated based on several criteria, including precision, completeness, consistency, and representativeness. The analysisfollows the data quality level and criteria of the UN Environment Global Guidance on LCA database development. Based on these factors, the overall dataquality is rated as "Good".Precision and completeness:Precision (Very Good): The inventory data used in this study were either directly measured, calculated, or estimated based on primary data sources,ensuring high precision.Background data from ecoinvent v3 database also has documented precision to the extent available.Completeness (Very Good): The product system's mass balance and inventory completeness were thoroughly checked. Some exclusions were made inline with the PCR requirements, such as personnel impacts, R&D activities, business travel, secondary packaging, point of sale infrastructure, and thecoating applicator. However, no data was intentionally omitted.Consistency and reproducibility:Consistency (Good): Primary data were collected with a similar level of detail, while background data primarily came from the ecoinvent database, withother databases used only if necessary or more representative. The modeling approach and other methodological choices were applied consistentlythroughout the model.Reproducibility (Very Good): This study ensures reproducibility by providing comprehensive disclosure of input-output data, dataset choices, andmodeling approaches. A knowledgeable third party should be able to approximate the results using the same data and modeling methods.Representativeness (Good):Temporal: Primary data were collected for the totality of the reference study period to ensure the representativeness. Secondary data from theecoinvent v3.9.1 database is typically representative of recent years, a detailed data quality analysis following ISO 21930 was performed on thebackground database and is available at request.Geographical: Primary data represents Carboline's production facility in Green Bay, WI. We considered regional differences in electric grid mix usingappropriate secondary data. Country-specific data ensures high geographical representativeness, with proxy data used only when necessary.Technological (Good): Both primary and secondary data were tailored to the specific technologies studied, ensuring high technologicalrepresentativeness.Life Cycle Module DescriptionThe product stage (Modules 1-3) starts with raw material extraction and upstream processing, and continues through coating manufacture and packaging.Raw materials and intermediates are processed into the finished coating product, and manufacturing wastes and co-products are accounted for in thisstage. The design and construction stage (Modules 4-5) starts when the packaged coating leaves the production site and ends when it reaches theapplication site. It includes distribution to warehouses, retail or point of sale, and final transport to the application location. The use and maintenance stage(Modules 6-10) begins with application of the coating to the substrate and continues through drying, maintenance, and any required repainting events overthe 60-year functional unit. Impacts include drying emissions, repainting, and unused coating. The PCR assumes 10% of the wet coating mass remainsunused. The end-of-life stage (Modules 11-14) includes disposal or recovery of unused coating, applied coating, and packaging. Waste water-basedcoatings are sent to landfill, while waste solvent-based coatings are incinerated with energy recovery. Benefits beyond the system boundary may includeavoided burdens from energy recovery and recycling, where applicable.Carboquick® 200CarbolinePage 7 / 19
LCA DiscussionAllocation ProcedureAllocation of co-products was avoided to the extent possible by subdividing unit processes or applying system expansion/substitution, where applicable, inaccordance with ISO 14044 and ISO 21930. Where allocation could not be avoided, a physical relationship, preferably mass, was used. Economic allocationwas applied only where a physical relationship was not appropriate. For shared manufacturing-site flows, including energy use, water consumption,wastewater treatment, and VOC emissions, impacts were allocated to the studied coating product based on mass where product-specific metering orprocess-specific data were not available. Solid waste was estimated using packaging masses, production losses, and site waste records, and was assignedto the life-cycle stage in which the waste was generated, consistent with the polluter-pays principle.Cut-off ProcedureThe system boundary was defined based on relevance to the goal of the study. For the raw material (A1) and process related inputs (A3), all availableenergy and material flow data have been included in the model. Exclusions allowed by the PCR such as secondary and tertiary packaging, wereimplemented.Renewable ElectricityEnergy Attribute Certificates (EACs) such asRenewable Energy Certificates (RECs) or PowerPurchase Agreements (PPAs) are included in thebaseline reported results:NoScenariosTransport to the building/construction site (A4)A4 ModuleFuel Type:DieselVehicle Type:Truck and TrailerTransport Distance:1000 kmCapacity Utilization:33 %Packaging Mass:0.0352 kgGross density of products transported:1070 kg/m3Weight of products transported:0.426 kgVolume of products transported:3.97e-7 m3Capacity utilization volume factor:1Assumptions for scenario development:Transport distance includes finished product to distribution center and distribution center to pointof sale.Carboquick® 200CarbolinePage 8 / 19

InterpretationRaw materials are sourced from suppliers, transported to manufacturing facilities, and mixed to produce products. The product stage (A1-A3) drives theenvironmental impact, due to raw material production and energy use. This impacts is amplified in the use phase due to recoatings, making B4 the largestcontributor to the overall impact. Market and Technical service life scenarios differ depending on assumed estimated service life (ESL), with lower impacts forlonger-lived products. Those scenarios are constructed using PCR prescriptions that are highly conservative, as they assumed the replacemnt of the fullcoating sytem. End-of-life impacts are relatively low, as products are assumed to be landfilled with building demolition waste. Switching to renewableenergy is advised for products with high manufacturing energy demands. The manufacturer should explore lower-impact raw materials and work withsuppliers using sustainable methods or renewable energy to enhance product sustainability.0%20%40%60%80%100%GWP-TotalIPCC AR5 GWP 100ODPTRACI 2.1APTRACI 2.1EPTRACI 2.1POCPTRACI 2.1Production (A1 - A3)Construction (A4 - A5)Use (B1 - B7)End of Life (C1 - C4)Additional Environmental InformationNoneReferencesPARQ.
