Product information
| Product name | Thick-film renders (for complete list see the "product description" section) |
|---|---|
| Product identification | The main reference standard for this product family is EN 15824 – Specifications for external renders and internal plasters based on organic binders. Under EN 15824, the product identification is supported not only by the commercial designation but also by the declaration and verification of relevant performance characteristics. These may include, depending on the product and intended use, reaction to fire, adhesion to the substrate, water vapour permeability, liquid water absorption, thermal conductivity, durability, dry film thickness, grain size, binder type and physical state of the product. These parameters make it possible to distinguish between different render systems and to select the most suitable product for a specific substrate, exposure condition and architectural requirement. |
| Product description | Valt thick-layer renders are water-based, factory-made decorative and protective renders formulated with binders, mineral fillers, additives, coalescents and pigments. The Valt products that falls under this category are: VALT COMPACT 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.5, VALTSILACRYL COMPACT 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.5, SILOX COMPACT 1.2 / 1.5, SILIKATO COMPACT 1.2 / 1.5, LAMATO BORMIO, SVIZZERO 1.2 / 1.5 / 2.0, SVIZZERO SILACRYL 1.2 / 1.5 / 2.0, SVIZZERO SILOX 1.2 / 1.5 / 2.0, DOPPIO STRATO, VALTEXTURE FINE, VALTEXTURE EXTRA FINE, DOPPIO STRATO SILACRYL, VALTEXTURE SILACRYL FINE, VALTEXTURE SILACRYL EXTRA FINE, DOPPIO STRATO SILOX, VALTEXTURE SILOX FINE, VALTEXTURE SILOX EXTRA FINE, GRAFFIATO GROSSO, GRAFFIATO MEDIO, VALT RUSTIG, BUCCIA D'ARANCIA, BUCCIA AL QUARZO, CERAMIZZATO, VALT DECOR, COLLA IN PASTA Within the Valt range, the products may be grouped according to binder technology: Acrylic renders are based on acrylic resin binders and are characterised by good adhesion, cohesion of the coating layer, workability, mechanical resistance and colour stability. In performance terms, acrylic renders are typically selected where robustness of the finish, good application properties and surface durability are key requirements. Depending on the specific formulation, acrylic renders show medium to low water vapour permeability, within Class V2 or V3 according to EN ISO 7783, and water absorption performance that varies according to the formulation and additives used, but ranges between W3 and W2. Siloxane renders are formulated with siloxane-based binder technology and are generally designed to combine high water repellence with good water vapour permeability. From a performance perspective, this means that the product is intended to limit capillary rainwater absorption while allowing water vapour to pass through the coating system. For this reason, siloxane renders have low liquid water absorption (Class W3 or W2), and high or medium water vapour permeability (Class V1 or V2), depending on the specific formulation and thickness. These characteristics make siloxane renders particularly suitable for external façades exposed to rain and atmospheric agents, especially where breathability of the wall build-up is important. Acrylic-siloxane renders combine acrylic and siloxane binder technologies. They are designed to provide a balanced performance profile, combining the adhesion, cohesion, workability and durability typically associated with acrylic binders with the improved water repellence and vapour permeability associated with siloxane technology. Depending on the formulation, acrylic-siloxane could achieve low water absorption (Class W3 or W2 according to EN 1062-3), while maintaining medium or high vapour permeability (Class V2 or V1 according to EN ISO 7783). This makes them suitable for applications requiring both façade protection and moisture-management performance. The final appearance and surface texture of the render are determined by the type and particle size of the mineral fillers used in the formulation. Valt thick-layer renders are available in several grain sizes, including 0.4 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm, although not all grain sizes are necessarily available for every product. These different granulometries allow the creation of different architectural finishes, from fine and compact textures to more pronounced textured effects. The performance characteristics described above provide a general framework for the product range and must be verified for each product in the relevant technical data sheets and available test reports. |
| Product information from external sources | Valt website: https://valt.it/ |
| Technical purpose of product | The technical purpose of Valt thick-layer renders is to provide a decorative and protective finishing layer for internal and/or external building surfaces. When applied to external masonry or façade systems, the render contributes to the protection of the substrate against environmental exposure while providing the desired aesthetic texture and colour. When used internally, it provides a decorative plaster finish with a defined surface texture. The product is intended to form a continuous coating layer on the substrate, helping to regulate the interaction between the building surface and the external environment. Depending on formulation and declared performance, the render may contribute to surface protection, water repellence, water vapour permeability, durability, colour stability and resistance to weathering. |
| Manufacturing or service provision description | Valt renders are manufactured internally at the production site in Berbenno di Valtellina, Italy, using an industrial water-based process. The process starts with the management of raw materials, whose procurement is based on a minimum-stock reorder system. The main raw materials used include water, binders or resins, mineral fillers, additives, coalescing agents and pigments. Production planning is based on a combination of market demand and warehouse stock levels. The production system therefore combines make-to-stock manufacturing, to ensure the availability of standard products for the main warehouse and branch warehouses, with make-to-order manufacturing for specific customer requirements or large projects. Each production batch is managed through a production sheet, which provides the operators with the list of raw materials to be loaded, the required quantities, the loading sequence, operating instructions for the machines, dispersion times and processing speeds. This document is used as the operational reference for the entire manufacturing process and supports standardisation, error reduction and process repeatability. The manufacturing of thick-layer renders is carried out using horizontal dispersers or mixers. Regardless of the specific product, the main production stages include dosing and loading of raw materials into the machine, dispersion or mixing, preparation of packaging, feeding of the filling equipment and packaging of the finished product. Each production batch is managed by two operators working in a coordinated manner. The product is normally manufactured as a white or neutral base. Tinting may then be performed using an automated tinting machine, which doses concentrated pigments according to archived recipes. For colours not included in the archive, the laboratory defines the recipe using a spectrophotometer; the recipe is then validated and stored for future use. In specific cases, such as large orders, tinting may be performed directly in the production machine, with the required pigment quantity still being dosed by the tinting system before being added to the batch. For renders, the operational flow includes preparation and loading of resins, preparation of additives, preparation and loading of powders, loading of additives, completion of the dispersion phase, sampling for quality control, possible corrections, machine discharge, placement of cans on pallets and cleaning of the machine. The products are usually manufactured as white or neutral bases and may subsequently be coloured by tintometer. The tinting system doses concentrated pigments according to predefined colour recipes stored in the tinting archive. If a colour is not already available, the formulation may be developed in the laboratory using a spectrophotometer, validated and archived for future use. For each tinting operation, a reference drawdown is prepared for future colour matching. Quality controls are performed during and at the end of the production process to verify product conformity. Process control includes checks on the weighing operations carried out by the operators using scales connected to the production server. Final quality controls are carried out on the finished product, and all control activities are recorded and traceable, supporting historical analysis, comparison between batches and the maintenance of consistent product quality. |

Data quality assessment
| Description of data quality assessment and reference years | Data quality was assessed for each material and energy flow modelled, according to the Ecoinvent Data Quality Matrix, thus considering the following five parameters: Reliability, Completeness, Temporal Correlation, Geographical Correlation, Further Technological Correlation. All data used for the production stages cover the full year 2025 (Reference Year), without exception, as do the data concerning the supply chain and sales. |
|---|
| Process name | Source type | Source | Reference year | Data category | Share of primary data, of GWP-GHG results for A1-A3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Purchase of Raw material & packaging | Databse | Ecoinvent 3.11 | < 5 years | Representative Secondary Data | 87% |

| Manufacturing fo Product | Collected Data | EPD Owner | < 5 years | Primary Data | 7% |
| Total share of primary data, of GWP-GHG results for A1-A3 | 100% | ||||
| The share of primary data is calculated based on GWP-GHG results. It is a simplified indicator for data quality that supports the use of more primary data to increase the representativeness of and comparability between EPDs. Note that the indicator does not capture all relevant aspects of data quality and is not comparable across product categories. | |||||
| Comment on the data sources and other information in the table | Although all activity data are primary, as they were obtained directly from the supplier and customer master data as well as from the product technical data sheets, only for modules A2 and A3 can the data be defined as primary overall. To date, no verified primary data on the environmental performance of the formulation components are available; representative secondary data from the Ecoinvent database were therefore used |
