Environmental Impact In general It is important that HS-Composite Ap. S identifies and evaluates those environmental impacts on the external environment, that are a direct result of the production. The evaluation process is made on all HS-Composite Ap. S activities. Process The evaluation process of the environmental impact is covering all production situations. The process is divided into: Discharge to air Discharge to water Discharge to soil Solid and liquid waste Energy and water Indirect Env. impact Revision 5. 1 marts 2010 Noise Env. impact of considerable significance Odor Dust Raw material End product Go to Environmental Flow

Discharge To Air The ventilation system in the production area has an injection as well as exhaust at 15, 000 m 3 air per hour. In 2005 the total usage of styrene subdued polyester was 4, 275 kg. equivalent to polyester usage of 2, 850 m 2. The styrene discharge of styrene subdued polyester is approx. . 10 grams per. m 2. In general 13. 3 m 2 (2850: 215) is produced on a daily basis equivalent to a styrene discharge of 133 grams. Gelcoat also produces styrene subdue. In 2005 1, 058 kg. was used. Our suppliers have informed us that the emission is 7 %, equivalent to 74. 1 kg styrene discharge. A daily discharge of (74, 1: 215) 345 grams These calculations state that the emmision is 478 gram and that styrene is alocated in 120, 000 m 3 air. Other procudcts are also used, and they also discharge to air. Those are pure styrene, acetone and hardener. Revision 5. 1 marts 2010 Go to Environmental Impact

Discharge To Water At HS-Composite Ap. S the production is not using any processes that involve water Therefore is it only sanitary water that is discharged from the company. Yearly water usage is 86 m 3. Revision 5. 1 marts 2010 Go to Environmental Effects

Discharge To Soil • • Revision 5. 1 marts 2010 In addition to the calculated discharge to air of 133 grams per day, that is expected to land on soil, the production does not discharge further discharge to soil.
