ASSA ABLOY is committed to
providing products and services that
are environmentally sound
throughout the entire production
process and the product lifecycle.
Our unconditional aim is to make
sustainability a central part of our
business philosophy and culture,
but even more important is the job
of integrating sustainability into our
business strategy. The employment
of EPDs will help architects,
designers, and LEED-APs select
environmentally preferable door
openings. The Norton 5600 Series
Swinging Door Operator EPD
provides detailed requirements with
which to evaluate the environmental
and human health impacts related
to producing our door openings.
ASSA ABLOY will continue our
efforts to protect the environment
and health of our customers/end
users and will utilize the EPD as
one means to document those
efforts.
The Norton 5600 Series Operator is a low energy operator that converts interior,
non-fire rated doors for ADA compliance and provides a way to achieve
touchless environments in public restrooms.
According to EN 15804 and ISO 14025
Dual Recognition by UL Environment and Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V.
This declaration is an environmental product declaration (EPD) in accordance with ISO 14025. EPDs rely
on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to provide information on a number of environmental impacts of
products over their life cycle. Exclusions: EPDs do not indicate that any environmental or social performance
benchmarks are met, and there may be impacts that they do not encompass. LCAs do not typically address
the site-specific environmental impacts of raw material extraction, nor are they meant to assess human health
toxicity. EPDs can complement but cannot replace tools and certifications that are designed to address these
impacts and/or set performance thresholds e.g. Type 1 certifications, health assessments and
declarations, environmental impact assessments, etc. Accuracy of Results: EPDs regularly rely on estimations
of impacts, and the level of accuracy in estimation of effect differs for any particular product line and reported
impact. Comparability: EPDs are not comparative assertions and are either not comparable or have limited
comparability when they cover different life cycle stages, are based on different product category rules or are
missing relevant environmental impacts. EPDs from different programs may not be comparable.

as waste processing up to the end-of waste state or
disposal of final residues.
D - Declaration of all benefits or recycling
potential from EOL and A5.
3.3 Estimates and assumptions
In the End-of-Life stage, a scenario with collection rate
of 100% for all the recyclable materials was assumed.
3.4 Cut-off criteria
In the assessment, all available data from the
production process are considered, i.e. all raw
materials used, auxiliary materials (e.g. lubricants),
thermal energy consumption and electric power
consumption - including material and energy flows
contributing less than 1% of mass or energy (if
available). In case a specific flow contributing less than
1% in mass or energy is not available, worst case
assumption proxies are selected to represent the
respective environmental impacts.
Impacts relating to the production of machines and
facilities required during production are out of the
scope of this assessment.
3.5 Background data
For life cycle modeling of the considered products, the
GaBi 6 Software System for Life Cycle Engineering,
developed by thinkstep AG, is used /GaBi
6 2013/. The GaBi-database contains consistent and
documented datasets which are documented in the
online
GaBi-documentation /GaBi 6 2013D/.
To ensure comparability of results in the LCA, the
basic data of GaBi database were used for energy,
transportation and auxiliary materials.
3.6 Data quality
The requirements for data quality and background data
correspond to the specifications of the /IBU PCR PART
A/.
thinkstep AG performed a variety of tests and checks
during the entire project to ensure high quality of the
completed project. This obviously includes an
extensive review of project-specific LCA models as
well as the background data used.
The technological background of the collected data
reflects the physical reality of the declared products.
The datasets are complete and conform to the system
boundaries and the criteria for the exclusion of inputs
and outputs.
All relevant background datasets are taken from the
GaBi 6 software database. The last revision of the
used background data has taken place not longer than
10 years ago.
3.7 Period under review
The period under review is 2013/14 (12 month
average).
3.8 Allocation
Regarding incineration, the software model for the
waste incineration plant (WIP) is adapted according to
the material composition and heating value of the
combusted material. In this EPD the following specific
life cycle inventories for the WIP are considered:
Waste incineration of plastic
Waste incineration of paper
Waste incineration of electronic wastes.
Regarding the recycling material of metals, the metal
parts in the EoL are declared as end-of-waste status.
Thus, these materials are considered in module D.
Specific information on allocation within the
background data is given in the GaBi dataset
documentation.
3.9 Comparability
Basically, 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 product-specific
characteristics of performance, are taken into account.

6. LCA: Interpretation
This chapter contains an interpretation of the Life
Cycle Impact Assessment categories. Stated
percentages in the whole interpretation are related
to the overall life cycle, excluding credits (module
D).
The production stage (modules A1-A3) contribute
between 18% to 68% of the overall results for all the
environmental impact categories considered; except
for the abiotic depletion potential (ADPE), where the
production stage accounts for almost 99%.This
impact category describes the reduction of the
global amount of non-renewable raw materials;
therefore, it is mainly related to the extraction of raw
materials (A1).Within the production stage, the main
contribution for all the impact categories is the
production of steel mainly due to the energy
consumption on this process. Steel and electro
mechanics accounts with almost 75% to the overall
mass of the product, therefore, the impacts are in
line with the mass composition of the product. The
environmental impacts for the transport (A2) have a
negligible impact within this stage.
The negative contribution of transports to installation
side (module A4) to POCP impact categories is
explained in following. The most important
substance contributing to the ozone forming process
is nitrogen dioxide (NO2), which is cleaved under
the influence of sunlight. This produces nitric oxide
(NO) and ozone (O3). Conversely, nitrogen
monoxide and ozone form NO2 and O2. Ozone
formation and ozone depletion are in equilibrium,
the ozone concentration depend on the ratio of NO2
and NO emissions to air and the solar radiation.
Therefore NO has a negative and NO2 a positive
characterization factor according to CML. NO is
mainly emitted from internal combustion engines
(ICE) while the fuel combustion. This leads to a
negative overall value for the POCP for transports
(using ICE) according to CML methodology.
To reflect the use stage (module B6), the energy
consumption was included and it has a major
contribution for all the impact assessment
categories considered - between 31% and 81%,
with the exception of ADPE (1%). This is a result of
2 hours of operation in on mode and 22 hours of
operation in stand-by mode per day per 365 days in
a year.
In the end-of-life stage, there are loads and benefits
(module D, negative values) considered. The
benefits are considered beyond the system
boundaries and are declared for the recycling
potential of the metals and for the credits from the
incineration process (energy substitution).
