I started using the impact assessment method 15804+A2 from the new 15804 add on for Ecoinvent 3.9.1.

I making an EPD for a fire resistant door so I used many different providers for many flows for A1-D modules.

I noticed that for all the providers I calculated, the waste indicators have always negative values.

Is that normal? I always use Cutoff System providers for my flows.

Thank you

Hello Giannis,

The cutoff database, and the en15804 database are not the same. You cannot use the EN15804 LCIA method with cutoff processes. If you have the EN15804 add-on, you need to download the EN15804 U and EN15804 LCI database from nexus, and use these processes instead. This will give you results on the categories specific to EN15804.

Best of luck.
