Product category rules for ceramic tiles
This document defines Product Category Rules (PCR) providing guidelines and rules for developing a type III environmental declaration (EPD) for ceramic tiles produced by extrusion and dry-pressing techniques, mainly used for internal and/or external floorings and walls coverings and façade cladding.
These PCR specify the calculation rules in accordance with EN 15804:2012+A1:2013 for the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of ceramic tiles for developing an EPD, as well as the requirements on the background of the LCA.
These PCR:
- define the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collated and reported;
- describe which stages of ceramic tiles’s life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes are to be included in the life cycle stages;
- defines rule for the development of scenarios;
- include the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the EPD, including the specification of the data quality to be applied;
- include the rules for reporting predetermined, environmental and health information, that is not covered by LCA for a ceramic tile, construction process and construction service where necessary;
- define the conditions under which ceramic tiles can be compared based on the information provided by EPD.
The EPD developed using these PCR will contain data from the product stages (A1 to A3). Optionally, the manufacturer can include all modules of the product’s life cycle stages (construction process, use, and end of life) (A4 to C4), using the scenarios described in 7.3 when primary data are not available. The results of these stages shall be shown individually (without being added together).
Therefore, these PCR cover:
- EPD cradle-to-gate (only the product stage is considered);
- EPD cradle-to-grave (the whole life cycle of ceramic tiles is considered). In these type of EPD module D may be included.
After verification an EPD is valid for a 5 year period from the date of issue, after which it shall be reviewed and verified.
Produktkategorieregeln für keramische Fliesen und Platten
Dieses Dokument legt Produktkategorieregeln (PCR) fest, welche Leitlinien und Regeln für die Entwicklung einer Typ III-Umweltdeklaration (EPD) für keramische Fliesen und Platten bereitstellen, die mittels Strangpress- und Trockenpresstechniken hergestellt werden und hauptsächlich in Innen- und/oder Außen¬bereichen für Boden- und Wandbeläge sowie Fassadenbekleidungen angewendet werden.
Diese Produktkategorieregeln (PCR) legen die Berechnungsregeln nach EN 15804:2012+A1:2013 für die Ökobilanz (LCA) von keramischen Fliesen und Platten für die Entwicklung einer Umweltdeklaration fest sowie die Anforderungen bezüglich des Hintergrunds der Ökobilanz (LCA).
Diese Produktkategorieregeln
- legen die zu deklarierenden Parameter und die Art, wie sie auf Vollständigkeit überprüft und im Bericht angegeben werden, fest;
- beschreiben, welche Phasen des Lebenszyklus von keramischen Fliesen und Platten in der EPD berücksichtigt werden und welche Prozesse in die Phasen des Lebenszyklus einzubeziehen sind;
- legen eine Regel für die Entwicklung von Szenarien fest;
- beinhalten die Regeln zur Berechnung der Sachbilanz und der Wirkungsabschätzung, die der EPD zugrunde liegen, einschließlich der Festlegung der anzuwendenden Datenqualität;
- beinhalten die Regeln für die Kommunikation zuvor festgeleger Umwelt- und Gesundheits-informationen, die für eine keramische Fliese und Platte, einen Bauprozess und eine Bauleistung nicht von einer Ökobilanz (LCA) abgedeckt sind, soweit erforderlich;
- legen die Bedingungen fest, unter welchen keramische Fliesen und Platten auf der Basis der Informationen aus den EPD verglichen werden können.
Die unter Anwendung dieser PCR entwickelte Umweltdeklaration enthält Daten aus den Herstellungs-phasen (A1 bis A3). Optional kann der Hersteller alle Module der Phasen des Lebenszyklus des Produktes (Errichtungsphase, Nutzungsphase und Entsorgungsphase) (A4 bis C4)) unter Anwendung der in 7.3 beschriebenen Szenarien einbeziehen, wenn keine Primärdaten zur Verfügung stehen. Die Ergebnisse dieser Phasen müssen einzeln dargestellt werden (ohne aufaddiert zu werden).
Somit decken diese PCR Folgendes ab:
- eine "von-der-Wiege-bis-zum-Werktor"-EPD (nur die Herstellungsphase wird betrachtet);
- eine "von-der-Wiege-bis-zur-Bahre"-EPD (der gesamte Lebenszyklus der keramischen Fliesen und Platten wird betrachtet). Bei dieser EPD-Art darf Modul D einbezogen werden.
Nach der Verifizierung ist eine EPD für einen Zeitraum von 5 Jahren ab dem Datum ihrer Ausstellung gültig, wonach sie überprüft und verifiziert werden muss.
Règles de définition des catégories de produits pour les carreaux céramiques
Le présent document définit des PCR qui fournissent des lignes directrices et des règles permettant d'élaborer une DEP de Type III pour les carreaux céramiques et les techniques de pressage, principalement utilisés pour les revêtements de sol intérieurs et/ou extérieurs, les revêtements muraux et les bardages et revêtements pour façade.
Ces PCR spécifient les règles de calcul conformément à l'EN 15804:2012+A1:2013 pour l'Analyse du Cycle de Vie (ACV) des carreaux céramiques en vue de l'élaboration d'une DEP, ainsi que les exigences relatives au contexte de l'ACV.
Ces PCR :
- définissent les paramètres à déclarer et la manière dont ils sont regroupés et consignés ;
- décrivent les étapes du cycle de vie des carreaux céramiques qui sont prises en compte dans la DEP ainsi que les processus qui doivent être inclus dans les étapes du cycle de vie ;
- définissent les règles pour l'élaboration de scénarios ;
- comprennent les règles de calcul de l'inventaire du cycle de vie et de l'évaluation de l'impact du cycle de vie servant de base à la DEP, y compris la spécification de la qualité des données à appliquer ;
- comprennent les règles pour rendre compte d'informations prédéterminées relatives à l'environnement et à la santé, qui ne sont par couvertes par l'ACV des carreaux céramiques, au processus de construction et au service de construction si nécessaire ;
- définissent les conditions dans lesquelles les carreaux céramiques peuvent être comparés sur la base des informations fournies par la DEP.
Les DEP élaborées en appliquant ces PCR contiendront des données issues des étapes de production (A1 à A3). Éventuellement, le fabricant peut inclure tous les modules des étapes du cycle de vie du produit (processus de construction, utilisation et fin de vie) (A4 à C4), en utilisant les scénarios décrits en 7.3 lorsque les données primaires ne sont pas disponibles. Les résultats de ces étapes doivent être présentés individuellement (sans être additionnés).
Par conséquent, ces PCR couvrent :
- la DEP « du berceau à la sortie de l'usine » (seule l'étape de production est prise en compte) ;
- la DEP « du berceau à la tombe » (la totalité du cycle de vie des carreaux céramiques est prise en compte). Dans ce type de DEP, le module D peut être inclus.
Après vérification, une DEP est valable pendant une période de cinq ans à compter de la date de publication, période au terme de laquelle elle doit être revue et vérifiée.
Pravila za kategorije proizvodov za keramične ploščice
Ta evropski standard določa pravila za kategorije proizvodov (PCR), ki zagotavljajo smernice in pravila za pripravo okoljske deklaracije za proizvode (EPD) tipa III za keramične ploščice, izdelane s tehnikami ekstrudiranja in suhega stiskanja, ki se uporabljajo predvsem za notranje in/ali zunanje talne, stenske ter fasadne obloge.
Ta pravila za kategorije proizvodov določajo pravila izračunavanja v skladu s standardom EN 15804 za oceno življenjskega cikla (LCA) keramičnih ploščic za pripravo okoljske deklaracije za proizvode in zahteve glede ozadja ocene življenjskega cikla.
Ta pravila za kategorije proizvodov:
– določajo parametre, ki jih je treba deklarirati, ter način njihovega zbiranja in sporočanja;
– opisujejo, katere stopnje življenjskega cikla keramičnih ploščic so obravnavane v okoljskih deklaracijah za proizvode in kateri procesi bodo vključeni v stopnje življenjskega cikla;
– določajo pravilo za pripravo scenarijev;
– vključujejo pravila za izračun popisa življenjskega cikla in ocenjevanje vpliva življenjskega cikla, na katerih temeljijo okoljske deklaracije za proizvode, vključno s specifikacijo kakovosti podatkov, ki jo je treba uporabiti;
– vključujejo pravila za sporočanje vnaprej določenih, okoljskih in zdravstvenih informacij, ki niso obravnavane v oceni življenjskega cikla za keramične ploščice, gradbene procese in gradbene storitve, kadar je to potrebno;
– določajo pogoje, pod katerimi je mogoče keramične ploščice primerjati na podlagi informacij iz okoljske deklaracije za proizvode (glej točko 5.3).
Okoljska deklaracija za proizvode, pripravljena na podlagi teh pravil za kategorije proizvodov, bo vključevala podatke iz proizvodnih stopenj (A1–A3). Kadar glavni podatki niso na voljo, lahko proizvajalec na podlagi scenarijev, opisanih v točki 7.3, po izbiri vključi vse module stopenj življenjskega cikla proizvoda (postopek izdelave, uporaba in konec življenjskega cikla) (A4–C4). Rezultati teh stopenj bodo prikazani ločeno (brez združevanja).
Ta pravila za kategorije proizvodov tako zajemajo:
– okoljsko deklaracijo za proizvode z veljavnostjo »od zibelke do vrat« (obravnavana je samo proizvodnja stopnja);
– okoljsko deklaracijo za proizvode z veljavnostjo »od zibelke do groba« (obravnavan je celoten življenjski cikel keramičnih ploščic). V to vrsto okoljske deklaracije za proizvode je mogoče vključiti modul D.
Okoljska deklaracija za proizvode (EPD) velja pet let od datuma izdaje, po izteku tega obdobja pa se pregleda in potrdi.

energy performance of buildings directive 5 General aspects 5.1 Objective of ceramic tiles PCR The objective of the PCR for ceramic tiles is to ensure: — the provision of verifiable and consistent data for an EPD, based on the LCA; — the provision of verifiable and consistent ceramic tiles related technical data or scenarios for the assessment of the environmental performance of buildings; — the provision of verifiable and consistent ceramic tiles related technical data or scenarios potentially related to the health of users for the assessment of the performance of buildings; — that comparisons between construction products are carried out in the context of their application in the building; — the communication of the environmental information of construction products from business to business; — the basis, subject to additional requirements, for the communication of the environmental information of ceramic tiles to consumers. Declarations based on this standard are not comparative assertions. 5.2 Types of EPD with respect to life cycle stages covered The EPD shall at least include the product stage (A1 to A3) of ceramic tiles (see Figure 1). If the entire life cycle of the product is considered, this shall be subdivided into the following stages: — Product: corresponds to the manufacture of the ceramic tiles, including all the upstream processes of the product stage (raw materials supply and/or recycled materials, raw materials’ transport, energy supply, etc.). It comprises modules A1, A2, and A3 of EN 15804:2012+A1:2013; SIST EN 17160:2019

yä v. 5.5 Ownership, responsibility and liability for the EPD A manufacturer or a group of manufacturers are the sole owners and have liability and responsibility for an EPD. 5.6 Communication formats The communication format of the EPD shall be in accordance with EN 15942. 6 Product Category Rules for LCA 6.1 Product category The product category referred to in these PCR includes all ceramic tiles coverings for flooring and/or wall and façade cladding, both indoors and outdoors, including mosaics and decorative pieces. 6.2 Life cycle stages and their information modules to be included 6.2.1 General The environmental information of an EPD covering all life cycle stages (“cradle to grave”) shall be subdivided into the information module groups A1 to A3, A4-A5, B1 to B5, B6-B yá C s to C v and module D. Only the declaration of the product stage modules, A1 to A3, is required for compliance with these PCR. Information modules within any of the life cycle stages are communicated depending on the types of EPD as specified in 5.2. They include impacts and aspects related to losses in the module in which the losses occur (i.e. production, transport, and waste processing and disposal of the lost waste products and materials). 6.2.2 A1-A3 Product stage, information modules The product stage includes: A1: raw material extraction and processing, processing of secondary material input (e.g. recycling processes, recovered glass and sludge); A2: transport of raw materials to the manufacturer; A3: manufacturing of ceramic tiles; including provision of all materials, products and energy, as well as waste processing up to the end-of waste state (6.3.4.5) or disposal of final residues during the product stage. SIST EN 17160:2019
Figure 2 — Example of a cradle-to-gate ceramic tile process flow diagram 6.3.4.2 Product stage The product stage is an information module required to be included in the EPD. As illustrated in Figure 1 it includes the information modules A1 to A3. The system boundary with nature is set to include those processes that provide the material and energy inputs into the system and the following manufacturing, and transport processes up to the factory gate as well as the processing of any waste arising from those processes. In the case of input of secondary materials or energy recovered from secondary fuels, the system boundary between the system under study and the previous system (providing the secondary materials) is set where outputs of the previous system, e.g. materials, products, building elements or energy, reach the end-of-waste state (see 6.3.4.5 and Annex B). SIST EN 17160:2019
The product stage, which includes the production of ceramic tiles and other materials, such as packaging materials, shall be included in the EPD and comprises the following modules and processes: A1: Extraction and processing of raw materials (e.g. mining processes (clay, kaolin, feldspar, etc.)). Purchased products, such as frits, spray dry powder or glazes should be included in A1 phase; A1: Reuse of products of materials from a previous product syste
