Scope: This document specifies the requirements for the carbon footprint evaluation and carbon labeling of wooden flooring products, including scope, normative references, terms and definitions, calculation of the carbon footprint of wooden flooring products, evaluation of the carbon footprint of wooden flooring products, issuance of carbon labels, use and supervision, and appendices. This document applies to the carbon footprint evaluation of wooden flooring products made from wood, bamboo, and other wood materials during their production process. Main technical content: 3 Terms and definitions GB/T 24024, GB/T 24025, GB/T 24040, GB/T 24044, and GB/T 32150 define the following terms and definitions, which are applicable to this document. 3.1 Wooden flooring Wooden flooring made from wood, bamboo, and other wood materials. [Source: GB/T 35601—2017, Section 3.2] 3.2 Product carbon footprint The carbon footprint of a product (CFP) is the sum of the greenhouse gas emissions and removals of a product system, expressed in carbon dioxide equivalents, based on a life cycle assessment that only considers the impact of climate change. [Source: ISO 14067:2018, Section 3.1.1.1] 3.3 Greenhouse gases Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are gaseous components in the atmosphere that naturally exist and are produced by human activities. They absorb and emit radiation in the infrared spectrum from the Earth's surface, atmosphere, and clouds. [Source: GB/T 24025—2009, Section 3] Note: Unless otherwise specified, the greenhouse gases in this standard include carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). 3.4 Life cycle The series of stages in a product system, from obtaining raw materials from nature or natural resources to final disposal. [Source: GB/T 24040—2008, Section 3] 3.5 Activity data The representative value of the amount of greenhouse gas emissions produced or consu
