Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture

Highlights
We conducted the first LCA of particleboard (PB) produced in Pakistan
Primary data were collected from PB producers on materials acquisition product manufacture and distribution
We calculated ten environmental impact indicators and the cumulative exergy demand for particleboard production
Air emissions of most of the mills were found to exceed the NEQS of Pakistan
Sensitivity analysis reveal opportunities to improve environmental profile of particleboard manufacture
