Additional Environmental Information
Manufacturing
The NISSA luminaire is manufactured in compliance with RoHS Directive (2011/65/EU) and restricts the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardants (PBB, PBDE).
Distribution
Packaging mass and volume have been optimized according to European directives. Efforts have been made to replace plastic packaging with recycled and recyclable cardboard.
Installation
The NISSA luminaire requires no specific installation operations.
End of Life
Resistex is affiliated with the eco-organization ecosystem for the recycling and recovery of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). A service in collaboration with ecosystem is available to collect WEEE free of charge.
Life Cycle Analysis Methodology
The Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) underpinning this Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) adheres to the criteria of the PCR-ed4-FR-2021 09 06 from the PEP ecopassport® Program. The functional unit and the scenarios for distribution, use, and waste management align with the hypotheses set in PSR-0014-ed2-FR-2023 07 13. The results were obtained using the EIME software, version 6.2, with its database updated in April 2024.
Manufacturing Stage
Luminaires are assembled at the RESISTEX factory in China. The manufacturing stage includes:
- Production and upstream transport of materials for product and packaging manufacturing (primary and secondary), including waste materials.
- Industrial material processing.
- Assembly, including:
- Electricity, gas, and water consumption.
- Waste from assembly offcuts and packaging.
- End-of-life treatment of waste (offcuts and consumables).
- Transport of the packaged product from the assembly site to the final logistics platform.
Recycled material content is considered to be 0%.
Energy Mix: Electricity Mix; Low voltage; 2018; China, CN
Distribution Stage
Product distribution from the last logistics platform (Saint André de la Roche, France) to installation sites in France was modeled using:
- Truck transport with a capacity of 27 tons over a distance of 1000 km.
Transport Scenario: Local/national transport PEP-PCR-ed4-EN-2021 09 06
Installation Stage
The product installation phase considers the end-of-life of its packaging.
Energy Mix: Electricity Mix; Production mix; Low voltage; 2020; France, FR
Use Stage
Electricity Consumption Scenario
The luminaire does not feature lighting management functionality.
The luminaire is used for 20 years with an annual usage of 2500 hours, totaling 50,000 hours of use. With a luminaire power of 35W and a theoretical energy saving coefficient of 1, its electricity consumption over its lifespan is 1750 kWh.
Light Source Replacement
No light source replacement is necessary during the luminaire's lifespan.
Normal operating conditions for the luminaire do not require maintenance.
Energy Mix: Electricity Mix; Production mix; Low voltage; 2020; France, FR
End of Life Stage
The end-of-life stage includes the transport and treatment of the luminaire and its light source.
The end-of-life treatment of the luminaire was modeled using the ICV modules from the ESR database of EcoSystem. This database assesses the environmental footprint of end-of-life electrical and electronic equipment. It models 96 materials across various treated streams to quantify the environmental impacts of end-of-life electronic equipment. This database, available to manufacturers, allows for the measurement of the environmental impact of end-of-life electrical equipment based on its composition.
The Bill of Materials (BOM) for the product, electronic boards, and cables were isolated to utilize ESR data specific to the end-of-life treatment of the materials contained within these components. ESR data without the benefit of virgin material substitution were used. ESR data for the "Professional Lighting Equipment" category were applied.

Module D - Benefits and Charges Beyond System Boundaries
Charges related to recycled material content in the product during manufacturing are considered in Module D. These charges are modeled by the quantities of recycled material reported in manufacturing as positive quantities of virgin materials.
Benefits from packaging recycling at the installation stage are considered in Module D. These benefits are modeled by the quantities of recycled material reported in installation as negative quantities of virgin materials.
Benefits related to the product's end-of-life (recycling) are modeled using ESR data that includes benefits only.
Environmental Impacts
The environmental impacts presented below were obtained using the methods defined by PCR-ed4-FR-2021 09 06 and PSR-0014-ed2-FR-2023 07 13. This declaration considers the emission of 1000 lumens over a reference lifespan of 35,000 hours.

Extrapolation Rules
Range Product Presentation
The 622500 luminaires are offered in two versions belonging to the same homogeneous environmental family. The environmental impacts of other products in the range are estimated by weighting the environmental impacts of the reference product by extrapolation coefficients. The parameters for the different products in the range are as follows:
| Product | Luminous Flux (lumens) | Power (W) | Energy Saving Coefficient | Product Mass (kg) | Structure Mass (kg) | Control Gear Mass (kg) | Light Source Mass (kg) | Lighting Management Mass (kg) | Packaging Mass (kg) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| 622501 | 2708 | 34.10 | 1.00 | 4.04 | 3.88 | 0.10 | 0.04 | 0.00 | 1.01 |
Extrapolation Coefficients at the Functional Unit Level
Extrapolation coefficients are provided for the environmental impact of the functional unit, which is the emission of 1000 lumens over 35,000 hours. For each life cycle stage, the environmental impacts of the product considered are calculated by multiplying the impacts of the declaration corresponding to the reference product by the extrapolation coefficient. The "Total" column is calculated by summing the environmental impacts of each life cycle stage.

Extrapolation Coefficients at the Declared Unit Level
Extrapolation coefficients are provided for the environmental impact of the declared unit (at the equipment level). For each life cycle stage, the environmental impacts of the product considered are calculated by multiplying the impacts of the declaration corresponding to the reference product by the extrapolation coefficient.
