| General comment | The scope of this EPD exclusively applies to Cavipor® FTX, produced at Ludwigshafen, BASF SE. Cavipor® FTX is a nonflammable mineral-based clay foam used for cavity-filling for thermal and acoustic insulation. Cavipor® is a hydrophobic open-pore material that is self-sealing, allowing for fast and safe processing. The foam can be disposed of along with construction waste without need for separation and can be reused as foundation material. Cavipor® FTX consists of three components, all produced at the Ludwigshafen site of BASF SE: Cavipor® F: filler Cavipor® T: template Cavipor® X: crosslinker The components are packed for dispatch to the construction site in IBC containers (typically made of HDPE and steel). At the construction site, with the aid of a dedicated machine, these components are continuously mixed and frothed by adding pressurized air. The fresh foam is injected into hollow spaces of a building, thereby imparting an insulating effect upon hardening. Volumetric mass density of fresh state as 109 kg/m³. |
