The Axia® Vision is a 24/7 hour office chair for primary use incall centers, dealing rooms and receptions of hospitals orpolice stations. Also ideal for deluxe office environments.This chair combines elegance with robustness and providesoptimal support due to it's patented split seat mechanism(with tension adjustment and dual side operating levers), (inheight and depth) adjustable armrests and -pads, and seatdepth adjustment.In this declaration, the BMA Axia® Vision is studied with aON-5V alu polished footbase, alu polished 8K multi-armrests, ON-4V gas lift and reinforced G-mechanism withalu polished back frame. Note: The black coated version ofthe BMA Axia® Vision would give similar results.

Life cycle stages included are described in figure and throughthe corresponding letter and number designations in thedeclaration (see figure below)
Where virgin materials are used, emissions and energy consumption connected with extraction and productionare included.
Transportation to an average customer in Copenhagen is 360 km (A4: average European lorry > 32 tonnes)
Emissions from incineration of waste are allocated to the product system that uses the recovered energy.
The use stage is represented by a scenario and includes vacuum cleaning of textile once a month. The PCR [3] does notprovide detailed guidelines for what should be included in the use stage. In the end of life stage, the transport distance forwaste to waste processing is 72 km (C1). The reuse, recovery and recycling stage is beyond the system boundaries (D).
All major raw materials and all the essential energy is included.The production processes for raw materials and energy flowsthat are included with very small amounts (<1%) are notincluded. This cut-off rule does not apply for hazardousmaterials and substances.
Production of one seating solution provided andmaintained for a period of 15 years.
Specific manufacturing data from 2014 are used. Datafrom Ecoinvent 3.0.1. and Østfoldforskning databases areused as the basis for raw materials and energy carrierproduction. See [5].

Where recycled materials are used in the product, emissions and energy consumption related to the recyclingprocess are included. Emissions from incineration are allocated to the product system that uses the recovered energy.
It is assumed that the solution is dismantled and the materials recycled or combusted according to the general Norwegiantreatment of industrial waste (see the table below). The transport distance to reuse, recovery or recycling is varying for eachmaterial, but the average distance is 373 km. The vehicles used and associated data are described in detail in [4].
