2. Product
2.1 Product descriptionThe 2K product Injection Fixing fill & fix is manufactured using polyols and isocyanates. It is placed on the market in a 2component syringe. The product fulfils manifold, often specific, tasks in the construction, furnishing and repair of buildings. Using reactive resins based on polyurethane fill & fix decisively improves the fitness for use of structures and extends their service lives. The product displaying the highest environmental impacts was applied as a representative product for calculating the Life Cycle Assessment results.
2.2 ApplicationReactive resins based on polyurethane or SMP, filled or aqueous, solvent-free fill & fix is a 2component, solventfree injection compound based on polyurethane. It is suitable for repairing cracked or oversized drill holes, for repairing broken furniture hinges and for fixing lightweight objects in difficult or dilapidated building materials (old buildings). It is applied into the drill hole, where it
foams lightly and sets quickly. The increase in volume during the setting process guarantees a secure hold, even in dilapidated or difficult building materials. After approx. 2 minutes, screws, hooks, eye screws etc. with a diameter of up to 6 mm that are normally used in wood can be screwed into and removed from the set material without predrilling.

the material speedy as it has a very short open time and cures very fast.
2.5 Delivery statusPasty, in a 2component plastic syringe, with the appropriate mixing ratioPackage size: 25 ml
2.6 Base materials / Ancillary materials Dualcomponent reactive resin based on polyurethane, filled and solventfree, comprise resin and curing agent components. The resin component contains polyether and/or polyester polyols as well as inert, mineral filler materials (e.g. chalk). Curing takes place after installation on site and using the curing component. This involves the use of homologues, prepolymers and polymers based on MDI. The components can contain auxiliaries such as accelerators, catalysts, wetting agents, foam regulators and viscosity regulators for finetuning the product features (application or marketing restrictions must be adhered to).The resin and curing agent mixing ratio is adjusted according to the stoichiometric requirements. Product curing commences directly after the components are mixed. On average, fill & fix contains the following ranges of base materials and auxiliaries referred to:Resin component: 50 60 %Hardener component: 20 30 %Filler materials: 5 10 %Additives/Pigments: < 1 %Water: < 1 % At the time of preparing this EPD fill & fix does not contain any substances, which are on the candidate list for substances of very high concern for entry into annex XIV of REACH. More detailed information about hazardous substances can be found in the safety data sheet. 2.7 ManufactureThe formulated product components are combined in batch mode and packed in the delivery containers, whereby quality to DIN ISO 9001 and the conditions of relevant regulations such as the Ordinance on Industrial Safety and Health or the Pollution Control Act are observed.
2.8 Environment and health during manufacturing
As a general rule, no additional environmental protection measures are required over and beyond those which are specified by law.
2.9 Product processing/InstallationThe Injection Fixing fill & fix is applicable through injection.Whereby health and safety measures (hand and eye protection, ventilation) must be performed and consistently observed in line with the specifications on the safety data sheet and conditions on site.
2.10 PackagingA detailed description can be found in chapter 2.5. Empty containers and clean foil can be recycled. Reusable wooden pallets are returned to the building materials trade (reusable pallets against deposits) from where they are returned to the building product
manufacturers and redirected into the production process.
2.11 Condition of useDuring the use phase fill & fix is hardened and essentially comprise an inert, threedimensional mesh. It is a durable product which protects our buildings as an injection and repairing mass and makes a significant contribution towards retaining their function and longterm value.
2.12 Environment and health during useOption 1 – Products for applications outside confined spacesDuring use fill & fix loses its reactivity and act inertly. No risks are known for water, air and soil if the products are used as designated. Option 2 – Products for applications inside confined spacesThe emissions of fill & fix in the indoor air amount after 28 days < 0,2 μg/m³ TVOC („Total Volatile Organic Compounds“).Another influence of environment and health caused by escaping materials is not known.
2.13 Reference service lifefill & fix complies with various, often specific tasks associated with the construction or refurbishment of building structures. Use thereof decisively improves the usability of building structures and significantly extends their Reference Service Life.The anticipated Reference Service Life depends on the specific installation situation and associated product exposure. It can be influenced by weather factors as well as by mechanical or chemical loads.
2.14 Extraordinary effects
FireIn terms of the quantity used, fill & fix only has a subordinate effect on the fire characteristics of a building in which they are installed. As crosslinked polyurethane resins do not melt or drip with the result that the resins do not contribute to fire spread.
WaterThe Injection Fixing fill & fix is chemically inert and insoluble in water.
Mechanical destructionThe mechanical destruction of fill & fix does not lead to any decomposition products which are harmful for the environment or health.
2.15 Re-use phaseAccording to present knowledge, no environmentally hazardous effects in terms of landfilling are to be generally anticipated through dismantling and recycling components to which hardened polyurethane products adhere. If polyurethane systems can be removed from the components at no great effort, thermal recovery is a practical recycling variant on account of its energy content.

3. LCA: Calculation rules
3.1 Declared UnitReactive resins based on polyurethane or SMP, filled or aqueous, solvent-freeThe EPD refers to the declared unit of 1 kg fill & fix in the mixing ratio required for processing both components. Consumption per unit area of the products to be applied extensively can range between only a few hundred grams and more than 1 kg per square meter. In the case of products which are injected, the application volume depends on the component to be injected.The product with the highest environmental impact in the product groups was declared.

3.2 System boundaryModules A1/A2/A3, A4, A5 and D are taken into consideration in the LCA: A1 Manufacture of preliminary products A2 Transport to plant A3 Production incl. provision of energy, manufacture of packaging, auxiliaries and consumables, waste treatment) A4 Transport to site A5 Installation (disposal of packaging and emissions during installation) D Credits from incineration of packaging materials and recycling the metal container The Declaration is therefore from the "cradle to plant gate, with options".
3.3 Estimates and assumptionsWhere no specific GaBi processes were available, the individual recipe ingredients of formulae were estimated on the basis of information provided by the manufacturer or literary sources.
3.4 Cut-off criteriaNo cutoff criteria were applied for calculating the LCA. All raw materials submitted by the associations for the formulae were taken into consideration.The manufacture of machinery, plants and other infrastructure required for production of the products under review was not taken into consideration in the LCA.
3.5 Background dataData from the GaBi 5 data base was used as background data. Where no background data was available, it was supplemented by manufacturer information and literary research.
3.6 Data qualityRepresentative products were applied for this EPD and the product in a group displaying the highest environmental impact was applied for calculating the LCA results. The data sets are no more than 7 years old. The data was taken from the GaBi 5:2010 data bases and is therefore consistent.
3.7 Period under reviewThe review period concerns annual production for the year 2011.
3.8 AllocationNo allocations were applied for production. A multiinput allocation with a credit for electricity and thermal energy was used for incineration of packaging in accordance with the simple credit method. The credits achieved through packaging disposal are offset in Module D.
3.9 ComparabilityBasically, a comparison or an evaluation of EPD data is only possible if all the data sets to be compared were created according to /EN 15804/ and the building context, respectively the productspecific characteristics of performance, are taken into account. In this case, 1 kg fill & fix was selected as the declared unit. Depending on the application, a corresponding conversion factor such as the specific unit area must be taken into consideration.

The values of the indicators include therefore a higher uncertainty and are not accounted for according to the decision of the independent expert committee from 07.01.2013.
6. LCA: Interpretation
Non-renewable primary energy requirements (PENRT) are clearly dominated by manufacture of the preliminary products (Module A1) (>90%). This high volume is dominated by the energyintensive production of preliminary products based on crude oil. The curing component makes a significant contribution to the PENRT. In terms of kg, the resin component volume is somewhat lower than the curing component while filler materials only make a minimum contribution to the PENRT. At approx. 3%, the hare of total energy requirements required by renewable primary energy is low. This low contribution is primarily attributable to shares of
renewable energy in the German power mix as well as the wooden pallets used for packaging.At 90%, the main influential factor for the Global Warming Potential (GWP) involves the provision of preliminary products. As for the PENRT, the curing component also has the greater influence on the GWP than the resin component. Approx. 5% of greenhouse gases are emitted during production (A3), whereby production of the tinplate buckets for packaging plays the greatest role. At more than 90%, carbon dioxide emissions are the main cause of the GWP.90% of the Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) is dominated by the production of preliminary products.

Depending on their content in recipes, pigment (TiO2) and zeolite production can also make a measurable contribution to the ODP. On the other hand, Module A3, i.e. manufacture of reactive resins, also has a significant influence on the ODP. None of the other modules are of relevance for the Ozone Depletion Potential. In both cases, the main drivers are halogenated organic emissions from the German power mix (especially R114).The Acidification Potential (AP) is primarily caused by nitric oxides and SO2 which – as for all other modules – are primarily incurred during manufacture of the preliminary products (A1) and the actual products (A3). The primary resin and curing agent components make significant contributions to the APi. Module A3 also has a measurable influence on the AP which is particularly attributable to the manufacture of packaging materials.
The Eutrophication Potential (EP) is dominated by more than 90% by the manufacture of preliminary products, whereby the resin component plays the main role. But the curing agent component also makes a significant contribution to the overall EP results. In Module A3 which only necessitates a minor influence on the EP, most of the emissions are attributable to the manufacture of packaging as well as electricity consumption. The EP is primarily caused by various nitric oxide emissions into air and acid emissions into water.Accounting for >85%, the Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential (POCP) is dominated by the manufacture of preliminary products. Manufacture of the curing agent component alone accounts for a larger share of the overall POCP results than the resin component.
7. Requisite evidence
7.1 VOC ConfirmationSpecial tests and evidence have not been carried out or provided within the framework of drawing up this Environmental Product Declaration.There is no special VOC confirmation needed for fill & fix. Therefore the product was not tested according to GEV test method for determining the emissions of volatile organic compounds from building products in accordance with DIN EN ISO 16000 Parts 3, 6, 9 and
11 in a test chamber. Testing for CMR substances and TVOC/TSVOC after 3 and 28 days were not conducted. For reason by analogy to products with similar formulations it is assumed that fill & fix has a TVOC content („Total Volatile Organic Compounds“) < 0,2 μg/m³ after 28 days.
