This EPD comprises dispersion-based
products with a Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) content ≤1 % (VOC definition
according to Decopaint Directive). The products typically consist of organic
binding agents based on synthetic and/or natural resins, mineral fillers such
as chalk as well as water and smaller volumes of auxiliaries (thickening
agents, defoaming agents, surface-active agents, preservatives etc.). They dry
physically through evaporation of the water contained therein. They comply with
manifold, often specific, functions in the construction, furnishing and repair
of buildings. Using dispersion-based products decisively improves the fitness
for use of structures and extends their life expectancy. The product displaying
the highest environmental impacts within the class of dispersion-based products
considered was used as a representative product for calculating the Life Cycle
Assessment results (worst-case approach).
