The data set represents a cradle to gate inventory for aluminium profiles from primary aluminium. It does not represent the typical consumer mix of aluminium profiles in Malaysia due to fact that also profiles from secondary aluminium are produced. Considering the used technologies in this data set the environmental profile is applicable but with the background of the consumer market and to achieve decisions it should be treated with care because the aluminium products from secondary aluminium would have a much lower environmental impact and might change the decision process.
Data set use approval
No official approval by producer or operator
General comment
The data set covers all relevant process steps / technologies over the supply chain of the represented cradle to gate inventory with a good overall data quality. The inventory is mainly based on industry data and is completed, where necessary, by secondary data. Within this data set 100% primary aluminium is used to produce the aluminium products.

Access information
The data set can be used free of charge by anybody to perform LCA studies, to distribute it to third parties, to convert it to other formats, to develop own data sets etc. as long as the copyright and license conditions for the data sets of the Malaysian Life Cycle Inventory Database and the ILCD format are met that can be accessed via http://lca.jrc.ec.europa.eu. Please note e.g. that reference must be given to the 'Owner of data set' and to the 'Malaysian Life Cycle Inventory Database' plus version number, when using the data set or parts thereof. Please note also, that any modifications/omissions of the data set results in invalidity of any existing 'Official approval of data set by producer/operator', that the impression must be avoided that this would still be a complete data set of the Malaysian Life Cycle Inventory Database, and that the content of further fields has to be adjusted.
