Duplicor® has found a place as a bio-based composite in The National Environmental Database (NMD). The National Environmental Database (NMD) is a comprehensive database filled with environmental statements of various building materials. This data is used in a nationally established determination method to calculate the environmental impact of construction projects.
The data in the NMD contains general information about the specific product, such as the product name, lifetime and functional unit. In addition, the database contains detailed environmental data obtained through a Life Cycle Analysis (LCA). Without this analysis, a product cannot be included in The National Environmental Database.
The Life Cycle Analysis is a method that identifies the total environmental impact of a product throughout its life cycle. This includes all phases of a product, from raw material extraction, production processes, transport and use to end-of-life waste disposal and recycling.
An LCA was also performed on the bio-composite Duplicor®. The results of this analysis have now been included in the National Environmental Database, which means that the data on Duplicor® has officially been made available for use in calculations and sustainability assessments of construction projects.
This spot in The National Environmental Database is the result of all the energy put into the development of Duplicor®. A bio-based composite that can be looked up to with pride.
