PE100+ deems it important to have insight into the integral environmental burdens encountered during the life span of a PE pipe system (DN/OD 400 mm) for water distribution. PE100+ wishes to get information on the entire life cycle of the systems, from the cradle-to-the grave. With this framework in mind, PE100+ has set up an LCA/EPD project with the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO). The present EPD outlines the various environmental aspects, which accompany the polyethylene (PE) pipe system for water distribution
