Ownership and limitation on use of EPD
Limitations
EPDs within the same product category but registered in different EPD programmes may not be comparable. For two EPDs to be comparable, they shall be based on the same PCR (including the same version number up to the first two digits) or be based on fully-aligned PCRs or versions of PCRs; cover products with identical functions, technical performances and use (e.g. identical declared/functional units); have equivalent system boundaries and descriptions of data; apply equivalent data quality requirements, methods of data collection, and allocation methods; apply identical cut-off rules and impact assessment methods (including the same version of characterisation factors); have equivalent content declarations; and be valid at the time of comparison.
Ownership
The EPD Owner has the sole ownership, liability, and responsibility for the EPD.

| Product identification | Worst case of several products |
| Product description | Formwork of different geometries made of plastic material used to create ventilation systems within various types of construction. |
| Technical purpose of product | Products and components in second-life plastic disposable formwork use in the constitution – for the creation of lightweight structures OTI is a recycled polypropylene disposable formwork used as a modular element for making foundation slab and reinforced concrete slab. TOTI can be used single or double by wedging two elements together. Side tabs allow the elements to be attached at the desired spacing. TOTI is available in the following sizes: SINGLE: cm 16 - 20 - 25 - 30 DOUBLE: cm 32 - 36 - 40 - 41 - 45 - 46 - 50 - 55 - 60. |

Easy-light
| Product name | Easy-light |
|---|---|
| Product identification | Worst case of several products |
| Product description | Formwork of different geometries made of plastic material used to create ventilation systems within various types of construction. |
| Technical purpose of product | Easy-light is a pre-assembled lightening system with variable modules. The individual Easy-light elements allow them to be assembled into a lightening module, called a “panel”, which is easy to assemble, precise and automatically guarantees the iron covers and spacing of the reinforcement layers. The Easy-light element also being produced with both 40X40, and 50X50 plan, allows for the creation of lightening panels with elements having diversified bases, thanks to this it is possible to create areas with increased ribbing at the columns; eliminating or drastically reducing shear reinforcement in the ribs. The modern and compact design of the Easy-light element allows for extremely high lightening performance, making it the optimal choice for those who want to achieve maximum lightness for their plate. Thus, thanks to its versatility and ease of installation, Easy-light panels allow the construction of plate slabs with absolutely competitive labour and material costs. |
