This EPD is for one tonne of installed QEF aluminium louvered systems. The louvered systems are manufactured from bespoke extruded aluminium profiles, which are initially cut to precise lengths, and then powder coated and assembled in to 1.1 x 1.1 m2 panels, for installation on building facades. The QEF aluminium louvered systems are used as facades on buildings.
The Representative Product of this EPD is 1,000 kg of powder coated aluminium profiles assembled in a louvered system, with a mean aluminium element thickness of 1.8 5mm, and powder coating thickness of 70 micron on both faces. This Representative Product is based on production at QEF where 90% of aluminium material used is 1.8 mm thick, and 5% each is 3.0 mm and 1.6 mm thick.
