General comment
The functional unit is 1 m2 of ceramic tiles for wall and floor covering, for a period of 1 years Primary data collected in the context of this study refer to 2022. Most of the information (energy and water consumption, emissions of pollutants, atomised powders and ceramic production) are measured or calculated directly at the company level and declared in the Italian IPPC document called AIA, which is specific and is checked for each plant involved in this study. Carbon dioxide emissions (related to carbonate oxidation) are collected through the ETS (Emissions Trading Scheme) declaration. Detailed data were obtained not only for raw material mixtures (collected with company-specific primary data) but also for dyes, frits and other raw materials used. The overall quality of the data can be considered satisfactory. "The allocations made concern material and energy flows in and out of the production phase processes. Energy and material consumption for the production of atomised powder in the Finale Emilia plant were allocated to the Fiorano product. The product flows studied were calculated by breakdown based on both mass and surface production data of annually produced ceramic tiles. No further allocations were applied in the modules subsequent to the production phase. Some ceramic waste is recycled internally. Credits for energy recovery of packaging materials and end of life of the product have been taken into consideration. " All flows in known inputs and outputs were considered
