ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International

Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.

Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies

Allocation refers to the partitioning of the input or output flows of a process or product system between

A stepwise allocation procedure is described in subclause 4.3.4.2 and several examples of the procedure

This informative annex provides additional information to assist understanding of the subject for

Allocation methods reflect value choices, intentionally or unintentionally. Such value choices can

influence decisions for different purposes, e.g. policy making or material choice in product design.

In addition, the need for data can vary between methods which can have an influence on the applicability

Expanding the product system to include additional functions related to the co-products (see 4.3.4.2,

Therefore, the product system which is substituted by the co-product is integrated in the product

system under study. The identification of this substituted system is done in the same way as the

identification of the upstream system for intermediate product inputs; see also ISO 14049, Clause 6.4.

The application of system expansion involves an understanding of the market for the co-products.

Decisions about system expansion can be improved through understanding the way co-products

compete with other products, as well as the effects of any product substitution upon production

Important considerations relating to the identification of product systems substituted by co-products

If applicable, when the inputs are delivered through a market, it is also important to know:

— whether any of the processes or technologies supplying the market are constrained in which case

they are not applicable, since their output does not change in spite of changes in demand;

— which of the unconstrained suppliers/technologies has the highest or lowest production costs and

therefore, is the supplier/technology affected when the demand for the supplementary product is
