It is then transferred to the secondary mixer for further heating and mixing with additional raw materials. Afterward, the mixture enters the process line where the sheets are formed, cooled with water, slit to the required dimensions, and finally packed. -No additional processes or raw materials are needed during the use stage of the assessed product. Hence, modules B1 to B7 are not considered. -The End-of-Life scenario for the products has been provided by Henkel, where it is assumed that 100% goes to landfill. The 100% of the bitumen membrane products are disposed in the landfill (Based on Henkel estimation and also presented in an industry-wide EPD by the Asphalt Roof Manufacturers Association) after its useful life. |

|---|---|
| Description of the default scenario | Manufacturing of products (A3): this module Description of system boundaries: Cradle-to-gate with modules C1-C4, module D and optional modules A4 and A5, covering the modules of extraction and processing of raw materials (A1), their transportation to the production plant (A2), the manufacturing process (A3), transport to construction site (A4), installation (A5), end of life (C1-C4) and potential benefits and loads from the reuse and recycling of the products at its end of life (D). Product stage (A1-A3): Raw material supply (A1): this module considers the extraction and processing of raw materials used for the manufacture of the products. Transport of the raw materials (A2): this module consists of the transportation of all raw materials covered by module A1, from the extraction, production, and treatment site to the factory, considering the specific distances of each material supplier. Manufacturing of products (A3): this module refers to the production process of Polyprime SB in the production plants. The raw materials required for Polyprime SB are stored in dedicated tanks within the production facility a. Each component is accurately measured according to the specified formulation. The materials are then sequentially introduced into the mixing vessel in a defined order to ensure proper blending. Once mixing is complete, the product is transferred to the filling line, where it is packed into the designated container size. Each container is labeled with essential product information, including safety instructions and batch details, ensuring compliance with regulatory and customer requirements.The chosen packaging type is the most representative in terms of sales volume. It also serves as the standard reference for all other packaging options analyzed for this product. |

| Explanatory name of the default scenario in module C | End of life |
|---|---|
| Brief description of the default scenario in module C | End of life stage (C) |
| Description of the default scenario in module C | Dismantling or demolition (C1): this stage considers the dismantling of the products after its use. The consumption of energy and natural resources is negligible for deconstruction of the end-of-life product, as demolition of Epoxy resin coatings/primer is assumed to be done manually. Thus, the impacts of demolition are assumed to be zero. - Transport to waste treatment site (C2): this module considers a default distance of 50 km (distance assumed in most EPD studies, between the construction site where the product was installed and the waste management facility (in this case landfill). - Waste treatment (C3): this module covers the process of processing construction and demolition waste through crushing, a fundamental procedure in sustainable waste management in the construction sector. This stage involves reducing the volume of waste through a crushing process, which has a significant impact on volume reduction and preparing the waste for further management and reuse. For the Epoxy resin coatings/primer products, no additional processes have been considered since they cannot be separated to be treated after the demolition. In contrast, all the bitumen membrane products waste has been considered to be disposed of in the landfill as it is the most conservative scenario. - Disposal (C4): this module includes the final disposal of waste that has not been destined for recovery or treatment processes. 100% of the Epoxy resin coatings/primer products are disposed of in the landfill (Based on Henkel estimation and also presented in an industry-wide EPD by the Asphalt Roof Manufacturers Association) after its useful life. Since the product is distributed among several countries, a conservative scenario has been considered to avoid miscalculating the impact of the end of life of the assessed products. |

Module C: End-of-life
| Description of the additional scenario in module C | - Dismantling or demolition (C1): This module analyzes the environmental impacts associated with the deconstruction or dismantling of the bitumen membrane on a construction site after their useful life. Module C1 includes all processes and activities used on site for the deconstruction of the bitumen membrane. The consumption of energy and natural resources is negligible for deconstruction of the end-of-life product, as demolition of bitumen membrane roofing is assumed to be done manually. Thus the impacts of demolition are assumed zero. - Transport to waste treatment site (C2): this module considers a default distance of 50 km (distance assumed in most EPD studies, between the construction site where the product was installed and the waste management facility (in this case landfill). - Waste treatment (C3): this module covers the process of processing construction and demolition waste through crushing, a fundamental procedure in sustainable waste management in the construction sector. This stage involves reducing the volume of waste through a crushing process, which has a significant impact on volume reduction and preparing the waste for recycling. - Disposal (C4): this module includes the final disposal of waste that has not been destined for recovery or treatment processes. Since this scenario is 100 % recycling this module is not considered here. |

Module D: Beyond product life cycle
| Description of the additional scenario in module D | Module D, considers the benefits and burdens linked to the processes of recovery, reuse or recycling of waste from the products under study at the end of their useful life, which could be part of the life cycle of a new product. The reuse of the product fully substitutes the manufacture of an equivalent new product; therefore, the avoided burdens of modules A1–A3 are reported as credits in Module D. |
