The first industrial butterfly valve with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
What is less impactful on the environment – metal or plastic? The leading flow solutions provider worldwide has commissioned a Life Cycle Assessment for the plastic Butterfly Valve 565 by an independent party. In addition, a comparative LCA study was conducted with a comparable metal valve. The result: The impact on climate change of the plastic valve is over 25 % lower than that of the metal valve.Due to their high resistance to corrosion and low weight, plastic butterfly valves have already proven to be superior to metal valves in many ways. Their lifetime is up to three times longer, and
