It covers products with different raw material compositions and different designs.Diese EPD bezieht sich auf Mechanismen, die das Öffnen und Schließen von Fenstern mit verschiedenen Funktionen ermöglichen (z. B. Drehen, Schieben, Kippen und Drehen usw.).0The manufacture of a window fitting normally takes place in 3 steps: 1. prefabrication of semi-finished products; this step may include surface treatment at the factory or at external manufacturers. 2. pre-assembly of the components (in the factory on site) 3. final assembly (on-site factory) The individual parts of the product are assembled manually.
Technical data:
Ideally, products should comply with a suitable technical specification. EN 13126, parts 1-19, various publication dates, Building hardware – Requirements and test methods for windows and door height windows, is an example of such a specification and some products will comply with it. The relevant grading structure is shown in the following table:
Declared unit:
The declared unit for all products covered by ARGE EPD is 1 kg (of product). Since individual products will rarely weigh exactly 1 kg it is necessary to establish the exact weight of the product and then use this as a correction factor to determine the actual values for 1 kg of product in the tables (Section 5).Die Herstellung eines Fensterbeschlags erfolgt normalerweise in 3 Schritten:
1. Vorfertigung der Halbzeuge; dieser Schritt kann eine Oberflächenbehandlung im Werk oder bei externen Herstellern umfassen.
2. Vormontage der Baugruppen (im Werk vor Ort)
3. Endmontage (Werk vor Ort)
Die einzelnen Teile des Produkts werden manuell zusammengesetzt.

Their purpose is to ensure the correct functionality of the window. They may be used for either interior or exterior windows.Diese Produkte sind so konzipiert, dass sie in Fensterkonstruktionen aus unterschiedlichen Materialien und Anwendungen integriert werden können. Ihr Zweck ist es, die korrekte Funktion des Fensters zu gewährleisten. Sie können sowohl für Innen- als auch für Außenfenster verwendet werden.EPDBuilding Hardware products.pdfrepresentative datasetecoinvent database (all versions)ecoinvent 3.8 databaseScope:
This ARGE EPD covers window fittings designed to be integrated into window assemblies of varying materials and applications. The reference product used to calculate the impact this product group has on the environment is a window fitting composed primarily of Zinc, aluminium and steel and has been selected for the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) because it is the product with the highest impact for 1 kg of product. A validity scope analysis has also been carried out to determine the limiting factors for window fittings covered by this EPD. In a preliminary study (simplified LCA), it has been confirmed that this EPD represents the worst-case condition and it can therefore be used to cover all window fittings manufactured in Europe by ARGE member companies.
System boundary:
Type of the EPD: "cradle to gate with options, with modules C1 – C4, and module D (A1-A3, C1-C3, D and additional modules)"
The analysis of the product life cycle includes the production and transport of the raw materials, the manufacture of the product and the packaging materials which are declared in modules A1-A3.
Losses during production are considered as waste and are sent for recycling. No recycling processes are taken into account except for transport and electricity consumption for grinding the metals. When recycled metals are used as raw material only their transformation process is taken into account and not the extraction of the raw material.
A4 module represents the transport of the finished window fittings to the installation site.
There is no waste associated with the installation of the product. The A5 module therefore represents only the disposal of the product packaging.
The end-of-Life (EoL) stages are also considered. The transportation to the EoL disposal site is taken into account in module C2. Module C4 covers the disposal of the locks. Module C3 covers the recycling of the individual elements according to European averages, with the remaining waste divided between incineration and landfill. Such a mixed scenario is declared due to the complex material mix of the product and the dependency of the EoL-route on the EoL-route of the product the window fittings have been integrated into.
In practice, the end of life has been modelled as follows:
when a material is sent for recycling, generic transport and electric consumption of a shredder is taken into account (corresponding to the process Grinding, metals). Only then, is the material considered to have attained the end-of-waste state.
each type of waste is modelled as a transport to the treatment site with a distance of 30 km. Parts sent for recycling include electricity consumption (grinding) and a flow (Materials for recycling, unspecified).Gültigkeitsbereich:
Diese ARGE-EPD bezieht sich auf Fensterbeschläge, die für den Einbau in Fensterkonstruktionen unterschiedlicher Materialien und Anwendungen vorgesehen sind. Das Referenzprodukt, das zur Berechnung der Umweltauswirkungen dieser Produktgruppe verwendet wird, ist ein Fensterbeschlag, der hauptsächlich aus Zinklegierungen, Aluminium und Stahl besteht und für die Ökobilanz (Life Cycle Assessment) ausgewählt wurde, weil es das Produkt mit den höchsten Auswirkungen für 1 kg Produkt ist. Es wurde auch eine Analyse des Gültigkeitsbereichs durchgeführt, um die begrenzenden Faktoren für Fensterbeschläge zu bestimmen, die von dieser EPD abgedeckt werden. In einer Vorstudie (vereinfachte Ökobilanz) wurde bestätigt, dass diese EPD den ungünstigsten Fall abbildet und daher für alle in Europa von ARGE-Mitgliedsunternehmen hergestellten Fensterbeschläge verwendet werden kann.
