Ecoelement: 100% aggregate substitution – practical use
This presentation highlights the practical use of the Ecoelement and demonstrates how to implement a successful, effortless transition to a circular construction industry. It aims to showcase the Ecoelement as the practical, readily available, approved solution for sustainable construction. We discuss how “talking sustainability” can be transformed into actually “doing sustainability.”
The Ecoelement is the green precast element in which 100% of natural aggregates are substituted by mixed demolition waste. This is why its environmental benefits are enormous:
100% natural aggregate substitution
1,600 kg of primary aggregates per m³ saved
Significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to conventional reinforced concrete walls
Implementing the principles of resource efficiency and circular economy
Processing recycled aggregates in-house ensures independence and product availability.
The presentation focuses on specific real-life examples demonstrating that the Ecoelement is no different from conventional concrete walls. It highlights the following advantages:
Surface equivalent to conventional prefabricated parts, no visual difference
Easy installation and quick construction progress thanks to the high degree of prefabrication
Outstanding technical characteristics: exceedingly comfortable indoor climate, more effective soundproofing and
Better thermal insulation capacity compared to standard concrete walls
Full compliance with fire safety requirements up to class F90, DIBt approved
Start building the future now!
Everyone is talking, but no one is walking the talk! The Ecoelement is an approved, cost-neutral solution that allows you to take immediate action. “Nothing good will happen unless you do good.” We urge local authorities, construction contractors, and architects to actively use and specify the Ecoelement in their tenders. We call on politicians to consistently amend regulations to prioritize sustainable products. Experience shows that we can build sustainably without compromising on structural stability and compliance with applicable codes and standards. Our Ecoelement perfectly combines ecology, economy, and construction technology in a single, comprehensive solution.
