1. General Information STEICO SE Wood Fibre Insulation Materials Programme holder IBU - Institut Bauen und Umwelt e.V. Panoramastr. 1 10178 Berlin Germany Owner of the Declaration STEICO SE Otto-Lilienthal-Ring 30 D-85622 Feldkirchen Declaration number EPD-STE-20150327-IBD1-EN Declared product / Declared unit 1 m³ wood fibre insulation material This Declaration is based on the Product Category Rules: Wood based panels, 07.
wood fibre insulation mats produced using the dry process. STEICO wood fibre insulation is highly versatile and can be used for wall, roof and floor systems. It can be used as an acoustic base insulation against impact and airborne sound below parquet or laminate floors, as an insulation element that can be directly plastered for composite thermal insulation systems, and as flexible cavity insulation. 2.3 Technical Data The following information refers to the STEICOtherm product range.
drying of the fibres in the cyclone dryer addition of the bi-component fibres submitting the mixture to the production line heating and tracing the mixture to form an insulating mat cutting the wood fibre insulation to size stacking, packaging All of the residual products accumulated during production are either redirected into the production process or are directed to an internal energy recovery process.

potential for water, air or soil according to the current state of knowledge (Test report by the Institut für Baubiologie (Institute for Building Biology), Rosenheim, D) (see verification in Chapter 7). To guarantee overfulfilment of the statutory limit values for emissions, radioactivity, VOCs etc., STEICO wood fibre insulation materials are externally tested for these (Test report by the Institut für Baubiologie (Institute for Building Biology), Rosenheim, D) (see verification in Chapter 7). 2.
3.4 Cut-off criteria No known material or energy flows were ignored, not even those below the 1 % limit. The total amount of ignored input flows is thus definitely below 5 % of the energy and mass applied. 3.7 Period under review The data were recorded for the period 01.07.2013 to 30.06.2014. All production data collected thus refer to a production duration of 12 months. 3.5 Background data All background data come from the database /GaBi Professional 6 Version 6.4120/ and /ecoinvent 2.2/. 3.

provision of heat to boil the fibres are the main contributors to the acidification potential. electricity for the infrastructure at the factory location consumes 12 % of the non-renewable energy sources. Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential Production at the location (Module A1) is responsible for 86 % of ozone creation-relevant emissions, 0.3 % is caused by transportation (A2), and a further 14 % by the production of the raw materials and semi-finished goods (A3).
