Key Data Set Information
Reference year 2026
Name
Brymec VOX PP Pushfit Acoustic Drainage System
Technical purpose of product or process This EPD is representative of Brymec Vox Acoustic Range. VOX is suited for use above ground in commercial, residential and industrial applications, installed within the building structure as a gravity drainage system for the disposal of foul water, wastewater and rainwater. VOX is purpose designed for acoustic optimisation and is manufactured from high grade Polypropylene Copolymer with mineral fillers which ensure acoustic and strength benefits. The high-performance VOX Pipes are manufactured using the latest multilayer pipe technology to construct 3 co-extruded layers. This provides optimum physical performance and includes a special white smooth-flow internal surface for excellent flow characteristics and easy inspection. The system is connected with unique noise optimised Double Lip Seal ring seal joint fittings. Acoustic drainage systems offer huge benefits in acoustic performance due to the reduction of noise from flow of waste inside the system. This reduction in airborne and structure borne noise results in increased comfort and occupier enjoyment which greatly enhances the quality and useability of noise sensitive environments. The inherent strength and durability of the material means that the system will not deform under load, and with a low coefficient of expansion and the flexible ring seal jointing method there is no need for special expansion jointing. Due to the superior acoustic performance and ease of installation and maintenance, VOX acoustic drainage is ideal for use in projects such as hotels, multi-occupancy residential, high-quality residences, educational and scientific buildings. The results of this EPD are representative for 1kg of Brymec VOX Acoustic Range. To calculate actual impacts per unit the results should be multiplied by the unit mass contained in the annex.

1This impact category deals mainly with the eventual impact of low dose ionizing radiation on human health of the nuclear fuel cycle. It does not consider effects due to possible nuclear accidents, occupational exposure nor due to radioactive waste disposal in underground facilities. Potential ionizing radiation from the soil, from radon and from some construction materials is also not measured by this indicator.
2The results of this environmental impact indicator shall be used with care as the uncertainties on these results are high or as there is limited experiences with the indicator.
