Use advice for data set
Users of this data should consider the specific details of the CLT production process in British Columbia, including the materials and energy flows involved from cradle-to-gate. The data focuses on the production stages (upstream activities, transportation, and manufacturing, including packaging) but does not include use or end-of-life stages. Data users must ensure that recycling, energy recovery, and waste treatment processes for CLT are modeled according to local specificities if expanding beyond gate-to-gate. Environmental impacts from capital equipment and human activities are excluded and should be considered if relevant for the expanded system boundary. Always refer to the latest standards and apply up-to-date characterization factors when conducting an LCA with this data.
