Key Data Set Information
Reference year 2026
Name
Concrete furniture and decoration in public spaces (Betongmöbler och utsmyckning i offentlig miljö)
Technical purpose of product or process This EPD covers our product categories seating furniture, planting containers, decorations, bicycle racks and foundations for flagpoles and tree pits. Concrete furniture and decorations are resistant to wind and weather and therefore work well as outdoor seating and planting containers in both public spaces and private gardens. Seating furniture such as benches, chairs, seating bollards and tiered seatings fulfils both practical and aesthetic functions. They come in different shapes and can seat a few or many people, depending on their size. In addition to serving as seating, they can also be used as barriers or driveway guards. This EPD covers all of our seating furniture, such as Bergen bench, Fjord bench, Ulriksdal bench, Kuben and Svampen sitting bollards, Colosseum tiered seating and Tango chair, except for the product Outline. Planters such as pots and urns come in various shapes and sizes; ranging from round curves to straight edges and from small flowerpots to large containers that can also serve as barriers. This EPD covers all planting containers available in our product range, such as Bergen pot, Fjord pot, Järvastad, Svenshög and Österlen. Bicycle racks come in different designs and sizes to accommodate a few or many bicycles. This EPD covers all bicycle racks available in our product range, such as Pedalen and Kuggen. The flagpole foundation is a stable base for temporary flagging. The mobile foundation is suitable for both sinking into the ground or placing on top of the surface. This EPD covers all sizes of flagpole foundations available in our product range. Tree pit foundations come in various sizes. They protect the tree's root zone and provide edge support against adjacent paving. This EPD covers all sizes of tree pit foundations available in our product range. The recipe for the planting container ‘Bergen pot’ has been used as a representative product, as this item has sold the most in terms of weight. This EPD also refers to other products with the same or similar recipes produced on the same site in Karlstad, Sweden. The reinforcement in the products varies between 0-5%. The flagpole foundations and bicycle racks have the lowest climate footprint; 19% lower than the reference. Bergen bench and Fjord bench have the highest; 5% higher than the reference. The tree pit foundation and the seating furniture Kuben and Colosseum have a climate footprint about 9% lower than the reference. The rest of the products have the same climate footprint as the reference.

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.
