Flexible sheets for waterproofing - Environmental product declaration - Product Category Rules for reinforced bitumen, plastic and rubber flexible sheets for (roof) waterproofing - Part 1: Cradle to grave and module D
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 17388-1 standard provides Product Category Rules (PCR) for the evaluation of the environmental performance of flexible sheets used for waterproofing, specifically for roof waterproofing. It is important to note that the reference product standards for this assessment are EN 13707 and EN 13956.
This standard is used for the development and issuance of comprehensive cradle to grave Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). EPDs can be developed using either generic data and system specifications for Generic EPDs, or specific data and system specifications for Specific EPDs.
The standard includes requirements and rules for the declaration parameters and how they should be collected and reported. It also outlines the life cycle stages to be considered in the EPD and the processes to be included within each stage. Furthermore, the standard provides guidelines for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and Life Cycle Impact Assessment that form the basis of an EPD, including specifications for the quality of the data used.
DIN EN 17388-1 is developed in accordance with EN 15804 and EN 15942, which are European standards that allow for the creation of Type III environmental declarations for construction products. These standards are part of a larger set of standards aimed at assessing the sustainability of construction works.
