This dataset represents cradle-to-gate production (i.e. modules A1-A3 according to EN 15804). It includes resource extraction and processing in order to manufacture intermediate materials; inbound transportation of the intermediate materials to the manufacturing facility; and the manufacturing of the product itself, including the provision of all supplies and ancillary materials, energy, and waste treatment of residual manufacturing waste.0JACKON Insulation GmbH

GermanyForeground system:
JACKOBOARD structural panels consist of an extruded polystyrene rigid foam board (XPS) coated with special mortar and glass mesh on both sides. XPS is a foam insulation material according to /DIN EN 13164/ which is produced in form of boards with an average raw density of 34,85 kg/m³. The calculated density of the board including coating is 170 kg/m³. The laths are delivered with glass edges and with a density ranging from 4 to 100 mm. For placing the product on market in EU/EFTA (except Switzerland) the regulation (EU) Nr. 305/2011 (CPR) is valid. The product needs performance declaration according to /DIN EN 13164/ and a CE label.
XPS is manufactured in a continuous extrusion process with electricity as the main energy source. Polystyrene granulate is molten in an extruder under high pressure together with the respective additives. The blowing agent is added to the melt and dissolved. The melt is discharged through a flat die. Due to the resulting counter pressure, the blowing agent foams the melt, cools down and the polystyrene solidifies. An endless cord made of homogenous polystyrene rigid foam is produced. his cord is cooled down and the extrusion layer is removed. For the production of the mortar coating, mortar is mixed with water and put on the XPS core together with the glass mesh. It is then dried and the boards are dimensioned. The boards are packet with polyethylene foil and put on pallets. XPS residues of the production process can be directly recycled and reintroduced into the production process. Polystyrene is a thermoplastic material and can easily and cheaply be recycled by remelting.
Spent polyethylene foils are collected and professionally disposed. Polyethylene can then be recycled.
Waste key according to the European waste catalogue: /Waste index regulation /AVV/:17 06 04, applicable for insulation materials except those according to 1706 01 and 17 06 03.
Background system:
Electricity: Electricity from renewable and non- renewable powerplants is modelled so that it represents a country’s specific consumption mix including transmission / distribution losses, own consumption, imports, emissions and efficiency standards, and energy carrier properties. Several factors are taken into account. (1) Energy carrier production - The exploration, mining / production, processing, and transportation of energy carrier supply chains are modelled for each country. The models account for differences among countries in production and processing, including crude oil production technologies, flaring rates, production efficiencies, emissions, etc. (2) Energy carrier supply - Each country’s specific energy carrier supply is modelled, taking into account domestic supply versus imports from abroad. Energy carrier properties (e.g. carbon and energy content), which can vary depending from where an energy carrier is sourced, are adjusted accordingly. (3) Power plants - Models are created to represent energy carrier-specific power plants and electricity generation facilities specific to different renewable energy resources. Energy carrier production and supply models are used to represent power plant inputs. Combined heat and power (CHP) plants are also considered. (4) Electricity grid - Models representing the electricity generation facilities are combined into a larger model that reflects a country’s consumption mix. The larger model accounts for a country’s production mix, internal consumption (e.g. pumped storage for hydro power), transmission / distribution losses, and imported electricity. The country model is also adjusted according to national power plant emission and efficiency standards, as well as the country’s share of electricity plants versus CHP facilities.
Thermal energy, process steam: The thermal energy and process steam supply is modelled to reflect each country’s emission standards and typical energy carriers (e.g., coal, natural gas, etc.) Both thermal energy and process steam are assumed to be produced at heat plants. Thermal energy datasets assume energy carrier inputs are converted to thermal energy with 100% efficiency; process steam datasets assume conversion efficiencies of 85%, 90% to 95%. The energy carriers used for the generation of thermal energy and process steam are modelled according to each country’s import situation (see electricity above).
Transportation: All relevant and known transportation processes are included. Ocean-going and inland ship transport as well as rail, truck and pipeline transport of bulk commodities are considered.
Energy carriers: The energy carriers and their respective properties are modelled according to the specific supply situation (see electricity above).
Refinery products: Diesel fuel, gasoline, technical gases, fuel oils, lubricants and residues such as bitumen are modelled with a parameterised country-specific refinery model. The refinery model aims to represent each country’s refining processes (e.g. emissions levels, internal energy consumption, etc.), as well as the country’s product output spectrum, which can vary significantly among countries. The supply of crude oil is likewise modelled according to the country-specific situation and accounts for differences in resource properties (e.g., crude oil energy content).For the product, national regulations are valid. JACKOBOARD® structural panels can be covered with every kind of plaster and floor tiles. The surfaces of the JACKOBOARD® systems form a strong primer and can be attached to almost every background. They are hydrophobic, thermal insulating, light and pressure- resistant. Because of this, the JACKOBOARD® structural panel is useful for bathroom and wellness applications, especially for the wet area. It can be used for restructuring and new construction. It is used as tile board for wall applications, partition wall constructions and floor applications. Further, it is used as tile board and construction board in the wellness area, e.g. for bathroom furniture, wash basins, benches, couches, shelves and back splashes.LCI resultAttributionalNoneAllocation - market valueAllocation - net calorific valueAllocation - exergetic contentAllocation - massForeground system: For all refinery products, allocation by mass and net calorific value is applied. For other materials used in the production phase, useful allocation rules are applied. For information about the individual datasets, please refer to http://www.gabi-software.com/databases
Background system: For the combined heat and power production, allocation by exergetic content is applied. For the electricity generation and by-products, e.g. gypsum, allocation by market value is applied due to no common physical properties. Within the refinery allocation by net calorific value and mass is used. For the combined crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids production allocation by net calorific value is applied.
