Terra Tones

Through-body unglazed porcelain floor tile in seven architectural colours, each with subtle light-to-dark tonal movement for a vibrant, non-uniform surface. Colour runs through the body, so edges and any wear read as the same material.

A1–A3 covers raw-material supply, transport to manufacture and manufacturing. It is product-stage information, not a whole-life result.

Historical result from an expired EPD. It is retained for transparency, but it must not be used for product comparison until a valid replacement is recorded.

EXPIRED on 1 June 2026 (published 01-06-2021 with 5-year validity). The located declaration is an average across the Mosa Floor Tile Factory formats 15x15, 60x60 and 90x90 cm, not a Terra Tones product declaration. Its cradle-to-gate GWP-total is 10,11 kgCO2e per m² (A1 1,22 + A2 1,55 + A3 7,34); the staged 7.26 kgCO2e does not appear in it and no document supporting 7.26 has been identified. Do not publish a carbon result for this material until the exact source of 7.26 is produced or the figure is withdrawn.

* A4/A5 are EPD scenarios, not project-specific results. Module D is outside the A–C system boundary and is not added to A–C. Module nomenclature follows BS EN 15978 / EN 15804. Declared values are suitable as inputs to a whole life carbon assessment under the RICS Professional Standard (2nd edition); this panel is not an assessment.

Upfront Carbon (A1–A5)*

9.73 kgCO₂e per 1 m² installed floor

A1–A3 7.26 + A4 1.21 + A5 1.26 · GWP-total, as declared

* Includes the EPD’s A4/A5 scenario assumptions, not project-specific transport or installation. This is the aggregation the proposed Part Z applies upfront limits to. The A1–A3 figure includes declared biogenic storage of -0.03 kgCO₂e; Part Z aggregates upfront carbon excluding sequestered carbon, which is the assessor's adjustment to make.

Service Life — the B4 Replacement Input

50 years · basis not recorded

≈2 installations over a 60-year building study period.

B4 (replacement) follows the building, not the product: an assessor multiplies replacement cycles by project quantities. This record supplies the service life and does not compute B4.

Comparison Status

This result should be displayed for information only and not ranked against another product.

  • • The EPD is expired.

Evidence Gaps

  • The recorded EPD is expired and is retained as historical evidence only.
  • 1 sustainability claim is 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.

Through-body unglazed porcelain floor tile in seven architectural colours, each with subtle light-to-dark tonal movement for a vibrant, non-uniform surface.

Typical Uses

  • Primary flooring
  • High-traffic circulation
  • Work areas

Key Performance

Hard-wearing surface for high footfall.

Specification Actions

  • Confirm the current EPD covers the selected product, finish and manufacturing route.
  • Calculate transport distances for primary materials.
  • Document material reuse or reclaimed content percentages.

Indicative Health & Indoor Air
