However, differences in certain assumptions, data quality, and variability between LCA data sets may still exist. As such, caution should be exercised when evaluating EPDs from different manufacturers, as the EPD results may not be entirely comparable. Any EPD comparison must be carried out at the building level per ISO 21930 guidelines. The results of this EPD reflect an average performance by the product, and its actual impacts may vary on a case-to-case basis.The EPD owner has sole ownership, liability, and responsibility for the EPD.

Carboq�i�� 200CarbolineProd��t Flow DiagramLife Cy�le Mod�le Des�riptions The manufacturing of Carboline's Carboquick 200 involves the direct procurement of raw materials from suppliers. These materials are then transported to Carboline's manufacturing facility in Green Bay, WI, where they are stored and mixed to produce the coatings. The coating is available in a variety of colors, which are added during the manufacturing phase. The Carboquick 200 coating is distributed across North America and is spray-applied to various exterior structural components to add a protective barrier to the substrate. Maintenance and repairs are performed on a case-by-case basis, depending on the type of external exposure. The steel can packaging is discarded at end-of-life and inclusion of a 10% coating loss rate during application is included. The substrate with applied coating at end-of-life is landfilled, per the PCR. LCA Dis��ssion The model includes over 95% of the total material mass, energy and environmental relevance throughout the product lifetime. Cut-off rules do not apply for hazardous or toxic materials, and the materials were included in the study. Product packaging was allocated by mass. Manufacturing inputs requiring allocation were electricity and natural gas as the production of multiple Carboline products is measured using a single meter for each. The allocation of each was based on the percentage of production for the Carboquick 200 product divided by the total site production output. Page 9 / 16

Comparisons may be made between product-specific or industry average EPDs at the time of product purchase when product performance and specifications have been established and serve as a functional unit for comparison. Environmental impact results shall be converted to a functional unit basis before any comparison is attempted. Any comparison of EPDs shall be subject to the requirements of ISO 21930 or EN 15804. EPDs are not comparative assertions and are either not comparable or have limited comparability when they have different system boundaries. EPDs are not comparative assertions and are either not comparable or have limited comparability when they have different system boundaries, are based on different product category rules or are missing relevant environmental impacts. Such comparison can be inaccurate, and could lead to erroneous selection of materials or products which are higher-impact, at least in some impact categories.Page 10 / 16

Meets ISO 12944-6 C3 High, direct-to-metal application with one coat. Exceeds SSPC Coating Specification No. 39 Level 3A and No. 36 Level 3A. The fast curing time significantly speeds up the painting process, saves labor, and saves money without sacrificing performance. Design Appli�ation Parameters:Airless spray is the preferred method of application. Industry standards are for substrate temperatures to be 5 °F (3 °C) above the dew point. This product requires the substrate to be above the dew point. To complete the final cure, the product reacts with atmospheric moisture. Thus, relative humidity below 30% will slow cure time. Brush and roll are optimal for touch-up or small area applications.An Ass�med Q�ality of Wor�, When Installed in A��ordan�e with The Man�fa�t�rer’s Instr��tions:Excellent corrosion protection is achieved with one coat when installed in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. A theoretical coverage of 112 ft2/gal at 10.0 mils (2.8 m2/l at 250 microns) is achieved. O�tdoor Environment:Carboquick 200 is an exterior coating that protects steel substrates in all types of environmental conditions. Page 13 / 16

Carboq�i�� 200CarbolineMaintenan�e:Carboquick 200 is an exterior coating applied to various types of metal structures. A 10-year design lifetime was used in the LCA model, with one initial coating and 5 recoats to maintain the average building service life of 60 years.

A 10-year design lifetime was adopted in the LCA models. For the design-based lifetime, one initial coating application and 5 recoats are required to maintain the average lifespan of a building, assumed to be 60 years.End of LifeC1 - C4 ModulesCollection ProcessColle�ted Separately:0.456 kgColle�ted with Mixed Constr��tion Waste:0.601 kgRecoveryLandfill:0.601 kgDisposalProd��t or Material for Final Disposal:0.456 kgAss�mptions for s�enario development:The only waste generated at the end of the service life includes packaging and residue coating waste.

Interpretation Data was collected for the calendar year 2022 to ensure the representativeness of business activities and post-consumer materials. Manufacturing data represents Carboline's production facilities in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Secondary data was obtained from ecoinvent v3, representing the most recent years available. The overall quality of the data used is considered representative of the product systems.The system boundary excludes manufacturing, transportation and disposal of packaging materials outside the product's primary packaging and construction, maintenance and operation of capital equipment.Data was modelled based on information provided by Carboline, supplemented by data from technical and safety data sheets. Proxy materials were used when suitable secondary data sets were not available. While secondary data sets are presented as averages and may not account for process variations and supplier locations, the data is considered good quality. The LCA results are expressed relatively and should not be interpreted as predicting impacts on specific environmental categories exceeding thresholds or risks.Page 14 / 16

Carboq�i�� 200CarbolineProduct Stage:The upstream raw material phase (1-1) is the primary contributor to all impact categories. This is due to the number of raw material processes required to produce the product. The manufacturing phase (1-3) contributes the most to eutrophication and ecotoxicity impact categories, approximately 9% and 6%, respectively.Design & Construction:Stage 2 includes the transportation of the product from manufacturing to the customer. The highest impact categories in this phase are smog, fossil fuel depletion and global warming. Transportation miles from the point of sale to the application site (2-3) accounts for low impacts across all impact categories. Use & Maintenance:Carboquick is classified as a low-VOC coating per the EPA VOC test method 24. Therefore few VOC emissions are released during the drying process. The highest impact categories within Stage 3 are acidification, global warming and non-renewable resource depletion. The coating application phase (3-1) contributes the least to all product life cycle impacts.End-of-life:The end-of-life management phase (4-2) is the second most impactful lifecycle stage. Disposal contributes the highest to eutrophication and ecotoxicity. Acidification, ozone depletion and smog have the lowest impacts in Stage 4. Transportation to the disposal point (4-1) phase has a relatively small contribution to all product life cycle impacts.Stage 1, Product Stage, was the highest contributor to all impact categories. Carboquick 200 is considered a quality coating with a long service life. Completion of long-term durability testing has the potential to reduce the amount of material inputs, and thus their impact, required for the exterior coating's assumed service life of 60 years. 0%20%40%60%80%100% GWP-total ODP AP EP POCP ADP-fossil GWP-biogenic Prod��tion (A1 - A3)Constr��tion (A4 - A5)Use (B1 - B7)End of Life (C1 - C4)Additional Environmental Information Before using this product, it is recommended that the operator read and follow all caution statements on the product data sheet and on the SDS for this product, and personal protective equipment must be used as directed.
