Disclaimers: This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) conforms to ISO 14025, 14040, ISO 14044, and ISO 21930.
Scope of Results Reported: The PCR requirements limit the scope of the LCA metrics such that the results exclude environmental and social performance benchmarks and thresholds, and exclude impacts from the depletion of natural resources, land use ecological impacts, ocean impacts related to greenhouse gas emissions, risks from hazardous wastes and impacts linked to hazardous chemical emissions.
Accuracy of Results: Due to PCR constraints, this EPD provides estimations of potential impacts that are inherently limited in terms of accuracy and may include error factors up to a million-fold.
Comparability: The PCR this EPD was based on was not written to support comparative assertions. EPDs based on different PCRs, or different calculation models, may not be comparable. When attempting to compare EPDs or life cycle impacts of products from different companies, the user should be aware of the uncertainty in the final results, due to and not limited to, the practitioner’s assumptions, the source of the data used in the study, and the specifics of the product modeled.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:OzoGrip®– Style and Sustainability OzoGrip® textures feature
an environmentally friendly and innovative connecting
technology. Designated for traffic areas in both commercial
and residential interiors, the unique design of OzoGrip®
can be installed over all types of subfloors, including natural
wood, concrete, one layer of existing vinyl and uneven
floors. OzoGrip® will not chip or crack, is water resistant, has
recycled content, non-skid backing, high grade fiber glass
sheet for stability on the floor, and its ceramic bead barrier
provides anti-microbial, anti-fungal and anti-bacterial non-
allergenic protection. OzoGrip® requires no wax, no stripping
and no buffing of the floor at any time.
PRODUCT APPLICATIONS: Luxury vinyl tile is used in indoor commercial applications in a variety of industries, including retail, hospitality, education,
corporate, churches and synagogues, athletic facilities, senior living and other healthcare facilities, apartments and condos,
museums and student housing. OzoGrip® is warranted for medium to heavy commercial applications and can be installed
over all types of subfloors, including natural wood, concrete, one layer of existing vinyl, ceramic and uneven floors. Flooring
provides durability, performance and aesthetic appeal to all building interiors.

Table 4. Data Quality of Life Cycle Inventory Table.
Data Quality Parameter Data Quality Discussion
Time-Related Coverage: Age of data and the minimum length of time over which data
should be collected
Overall time coverage of all datasets is excellent and meets the requirement of the PCR that no background data is older than 10 years.
Geographical Coverage: Geographical area from which data for unit processes should be
collected to satisfy the goal of the study
Manufacturing geographic coverage of background data is poor. This is due to the limited life cycle based data coming from South Korea. The Geographic coverage of non-manufacturing related datasets is good. Most downstream
processes are specific to the United States where better industry wide LCA data is available.
Technology Coverage: Specific technology or technology mix
Overall technological coverage is good and represents best available data for company specific value chain
LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT STAGES AND REPORTED EPD INFORMATION
Sourcing/extraction (raw material acquisition) stage
This stage includes the extraction of virgin materials from the earth and the initial processing of extracted material by raw
material suppliers. For materials from recycled feedstock, the collection, sorting and reprocessing of these materials is
included. Shipping of processed raw materials to the site of packaging is included, as are packaging materials required for
shipping.
Manufacturing stage
This stage of the life cycle begins when the raw materials are received at the manufacturing facility. Production is completed
when the final product is packaged for shipping to the customer. Energy sources utilized in production include both
electrical and thermal energy. Water is also utilized in the process. The use of packaging materials necessary to ship the
product to the customer is accounted for in this stage of the LCA.
Delivery and installation stage
Delivery
The delivery stage includes truck shipping of the finished product from Korean Manufacturing facility to nearest Korean
seaport (100 km), container vessel shipping from Korean port to US port (16,000 km) and truck shipping to warehouse and
installation site (500 km).
Installation
When installing OzoGrip® no messy adhesives or glue is necessary except for the perimeter of the room. The recommended
pressure sensitive adhesive to accomplish this is Spray-Lock 6500. Recommended installation instructions can be found at
http://www.tomkt.com/#!OzoGrip®-spec/c1c3u
Waste
Waste created during the installation process can be recycled or disposed of through local waste handling options.
Note: Some reclamation or recycling optionsmay exist at the end of the life of the product. However, for the purposes of the LCA, we have conservatively assumed all material is sent to a landfill.
