Declaration covers Marmoleum sheet at 2.0, 2.5 and 3.2 mm and reports each thickness in its own table. The staged -1.57 kgCO2e is the 2.5 mm result (Table 3); 2.0 mm is -1.27 (Table 4) and 3.2 mm is -2.02 (Table 5). Marmoleum Real is also sold at 4.0 mm, which this declaration does not cover. The displayed value must follow the selected thickness.

Service Life — the B4 Replacement Input
1 year · EPD reference service life
RECORDED AS DECLARED, NOT AS EXPECTED LIFE. The declaration sets a reference service life of one year and models the use stage over that year, because the cleaning and maintenance impacts are declared per year. The declaration says outright that the service lifetime of a floor covering is too widespread to give one number, and that the use-phase impacts should be multiplied by the life the specifier foresees. A linoleum floor is specified to last decades.
≈60 installations over a 60-year building study period.

Comparison Status
The record contains the basic metadata required for a controlled comparison. Products must still perform the same function and use compatible units, PCRs and lifecycle scope.
Evidence Gaps
- •No A4–D lifecycle results are held beyond the product stage.
- •3 sustainability claims are withheld because exact public evidence is not mapped.
Design & Specification Notes
Qualitative notes for early design discussion. Not product-specific EPD evidence, and not a basis for numerical comparison.
