systems and ducting systems”, the secretariat of which is held by NEN.

Introduction
European standard EN 15804 provides core product category rules for all construction products and services.
It provides a structure to ensure that all Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) of construction products,
construction services and construction processes are derived, verified and presented in a harmonised way.
This European Standard, based on EN 15804, specifies the Product Category Rules for Environmental
Product Declarations (EPD) of plastics piping systems inside buildings.
An EPD communicates verifiable, accurate, non-misleading environmental information for products and their
applications, thereby supporting scientifically based, fair choices and stimulating the potential for market-
driven continuous environmental improvement.
The standardisation process has taken place in accordance with EN ISO 14025. All common issues are
covered horizontally for all product types in order to minimise vertical (branch specific) deviations.
EPD information is expressed in information modules as defined in EN 15804, which allow easy organisation
and expression of data packages throughout the life cycle of the plastics piping systems (constructions) inside
buildings. The approach requires that the underlying data should be consistent, reproducible and comparable.
The EPD is expressed in a form that allows aggregation (addition) to provide complete information for,
constructions. This standard does not deal with aggregation at the building level nor does this standard
describe the rules for applying EPD in a building assessment.
The standard deals with a limited number of quantifiable predetermined parameters defined in EN 15804.
Future revisions may incorporate additional predetermined parameters in line with the changes of EN 15804.

1 Scope
This European standard provides product category rules (PCR) for Type III environmental product
declarations (EPD) for “plastics piping systems” intended for hot & cold pressure, cold pressure, and soil &
waste non-pressure applications inside buildings.
This PCR covers the entire life cycle from cradle to grave.
NOTE 1 Examples of standards for which this standard could be applied are listed in Annex C.
This European Standard specifies the rules for the product category of construction products as defined in and
is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 15804.
NOTE 2 The assessment of social and economic performances at product level is not covered by this standard
NOTE 3 For the purpose of this standard the word “building” used in EN 15804 is always replaced by “plastics piping
systems” or constructions
NOTE 4 If a comparison is made it must be based on the same functional unit, the same layout with same needed
minimum flow capacity of the outlets, the same installation, same assumptions and the same LCI datasets
The core PCR: (as EN 15804)
— defines the parameters to be declared and the way in which they are collated and reported;
— describes which stages of a product’s life cycle are considered in the EPD and which processes are to be
included in the life cycle stages;
— defines rules for the development of scenarios;
— includes the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment
underlying the EPD, including the specification of the data quality to be applied;
— includes the rules for reporting predetermined, environmental and health information, that is not covered
by LCA for a product, construction process and construction service where necessary;
— defines the conditions under which construction products can be compared based on the information
provided by EPD.
In addition to the common parts of EN 15804 this European Standard for European plastics piping systems
inside building defines:
— the Functional Unit;
— the system boundaries;
— the elements and conditions of installations;
— the transport scenarios for both the raw materials and complete systems;
— the reference service life (RSL);
— end of life scenarios;
— the rules for calculating the Life Cycle Inventory and the Life Cycle Impact Assessment underlying the
EPD.

5 General aspects
5.1 Objective of the PCR for plastics piping systems inside buildings
An EPD according to this standard provides quantified environmental information for plastics piping systems
on a harmonized and scientific basis. It also provides information on health related emissions to indoor air, soil
and ground water during the use stage of the construction. The purpose of an EPD in the construction sector
is to provide the basis for assessing buildings and other construction works, and identifying those, which
cause less stress to the environment.
Thus, the objective of the PCR for plastics piping systems inside buildings is to ensure:
— the provision of verifiable and consistent data for an EPD, based on LCA;
7
---------------------- Page: 9 ----------------------
oSIST prEN 16904:2015
prEN 16904:2015 (E)
— the provision of verifiable and consistent product related technical data or scenarios for the assessment
of the environmental performance of plastics piping systems;
— the provision of verifiable and consistent product related technical data or scenarios potentially related to
the health of users for the assessment of the performance of plastics piping systems;
— the communication of the environmental information of plastics piping systems from business to business;
— the basis, subject to additional requirements, for the communication of the environmental information of
plastics piping systems to consumers.
