Carbozinc 11CarbolineProduct Flow DiagramSoftware and DatabaseLCA Software:SimaPro v. 9.5LCI Foreground Database(s):Ecoinvent v. 3.9.1North Americacut-offLCI Background Database(s):Ecoinvent v. 3.9.1North Americacut-offA foreground LCI database is the database used to model the primary, site-specific data collected for this EPD. A background LCI database is the database used to model generic or non-specific data.Data QualityThe quality of inventory data is evaluated based on several criteria, including precision, completeness, consistency, and representativeness.Precision and Completeness• Precision: 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 v3.9.1 database also has documented precision to the extent available.• Completeness: The product system's mass balance and inventory completeness were thoroughly checked. Some exclusions were made in line with the PCR require-ments, such as personnel impacts, R&D activities, business travel, secondary packaging, point of sale infrastructure, and the coating applicator. However, no data was intentionally omitted..Page 6 / 16
Carbozinc 11CarbolineConsistency and Reproducibility• Consistency: Primary data were collected with a similar level of detail, while background data came from the ecoinvent v3.9.1 database. The modeling approach and other methodological choices were applied consistently throughout the model. Default values from the PCR were considered where there was unavailability of primary data, For example, the default waste transport distance was used for product disposal assessment.• Reproducibility: This study ensures reproducibility by providing comprehensive disclosure of input-output data, dataset choices, and modeling approaches. A knowledgeable third party should be able to approximate the results using the same data and modeling methods.Representativeness• Temporal: Primary data were collected for the one-year period of October 2022 to September 2023 to ensure the representativeness of post-consumer content. Secondary data from the ecoinvent v3.9.1 database is typically representative of recent years.• Geographical: Primary data represent Carboline's production facilities in Green Bay (Wisconsin), Dayton (Nevada) and Lake Charles (Louisiana). Where applicable, differences in electric grid mix were considered using appropriate secondary data. The use of country-specific data ensures high geographical representativeness, and proxy data were only used when country-specific data were unavailable.• Technological: Both primary and secondary data were tailored to the specific technologies studied, ensuring high technological representativeness. Where no direct raw material information was available in the ecoinvent 3.9 database, proxies were identified and used.Life Cycle Module DescriptionsThe manufacturing of this product involves the direct procurement of raw materials from suppliers in module A1. In module A2, the raw material suppliers transport the materials, along with the associated packaging, to Carboline's manufacturing facility in Lake Charles, LA, where they are stored and mixed to produce the coatings in module A3. Mixing and blending of raw materials occur using manual and air-operated diaphragm pumps in the mixer. The end result is the mixed product. For the products manufactured at the Lake Charles, Louisiana facility, scrap, packaging waste and non-hazardous waste are assumed to be shipped to the Waste Management Lake Charles facility, located 6 kilometers away from Carboline's plant. Hazardous waste is assumed to be sent to the CWM Lake Charles management facility for disposal in Sulphur (37 km away). The coating is distributed and sold across North America in module A4. Use of the product consists of daily maintenance cleaning with a mop and a cleaning solution such as Hillyard SM-1 Industrial Cleaner Degreaser in module B2. Necessary recoats (re-applications) of the product to achieve service life are modeled in module B4 per the PCR. The plastic or steel can packaging is discarded to landfill and a 2% coating loss rate during application is assumed per the PCR (for both initial application and any recoats). End of life impacts include transport to disposal and final waste processing in modules C2 and C3, respectively, and landfilling of the substrate with applied coating in module C4, per the PCR.LCA DiscussionAllocation ProcedureProduct packaging was allocated by mass. Manufacturing inputs requiring allocation were electricity and natural gas as the production of multiple products is measured using a single meter for each. The allocation of each was based on the percentage of production for the product in question divided by the total site production output.Cut-off ProcedureThe 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.Renewable ElectricityEnergy Attribute Certificates (EACs) such as Re-newable Energy Certificates (RECs) or Power Pur-chase Agreements (PPAs) are included in the baseline reported results:NoPage 7 / 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 11 / 16

Carbozinc 11CarbolineInterpretationData was collected for 12 month periods spanning calendar years 2022 and 2023 to ensure the representativeness of business activities and post-consumer materials. Manufacturing data represents Carboline’s production facility in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Secondary data was obtained from ecoinvent v3.9.1, representing the most recent years available. The overall quality of the data used is considered representative of the product systems.The system boundary is cradle to grave, excluding: construction of major capital equipment; research and development activities; point of sale infrastructure; coating applicator and its maintenance and operation; human labor and employee transport; raw material, forming, and disposal impacts from secondary/tertiary packaging; disposal of packaging materials not associated with final product; impacts associated with tool (mop) required for maintenance cleaning; building operational energy and water use; deconstruction and demolition.Overall, the production and construction stages (modules A1-A4, 30% of total impact) combined with the replacement module of the use stage (B4, 50-65% of total impact), have the highest impact across all impact categories , followed by the end-of-life stage (C1-C4). Note that the B4 module includes the A1-A4 modules for each recoat required for the product’s lifetime. The upstream raw material phase (A1) is the primary contributor to all impact categories. This is largely due to the number of different raw material processes required to produce the product.The construction phase (A4), includes the transportation of the product from manufacturing to the customer. The transportation miles from the point of sale to the application site (A4) account for low impacts across all impact categories.The use phase includes maintenance cleaning and recoats of the product. The maintenance of the product provides marginal contribution to the overall impact categories. As mentioned above, the replacement module (B4) is the primary impact driver for all the products.Waste disposal (C4) emerges as a major contributor to eutrophication and global warming. Waste processing (C3) significantly impacts carcinogenicity, ecotoxicity, and global warming. Waste transport (C2) exhibits relatively low overall impact.Additional Environmental InformationBefore 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.References[1] ISO 14040:2006/Amd 1:2020, Environmental management - Life cycle assessment - Principles and framework.[2] ISO 14044:2006/Amd 1:2017/Amd 2:2020, Environmental management - Life cycle assessment - Requirements and guidelines.[3] ISO 21930:2017, Sustainability in buildings and civil engineering works - Core rules for environmental product declarations of construction products and services.[4] NSF International, Product Category Rules for Environmental Product Declarations for Architectural Coatings, June 2015.[5] ISO 14025:2006, Environmental labels and declarations - Type III environmental declarations - Principles and procedures.[6] Bare, J. 2014.
