Siniat’s metal framing products are a good example of “#circular products” and the closed loop usage model. End-of-life refers to the end of a product’s life cycle. In the case of building products, this stage is often the #deconstruction of the building it was installed in. According to the 2018 National Waste Report, we know that an average of 90% of the metal products produced in Australia are recycled at end-of-life by factories that produce new steel that then goes back into the loop. Siniat uses BlueScope steel with 25% #recycled content to make our products. We have also made significant progress in the reduction of the scrap we generate on site, with 50% less waste compared to 2016. All on-site waste we generate in the manufacture of our metal products is recycled. #Circularity is one of the pillars of the Etex Road to Sustainability 2030, and an important part of our sustainability strategy.

We make it happen again: Circularity in action... A recent study by Imperial College London stressed the potential of Recycled Concrete Paste (RCP). Of the 10 technologies studied, the researchers found that recycled cement paste made from demolished concrete was the most effective and economical. At Heidelberg Materials, we are putting this from theory into practice right now with our new plant for selective separation near Katowice, Poland. What I find particularly exciting: The plant can process up to 100 tonnes of demolished concrete per hour. The unique crushing mechanism enables sophisticated separation and sorting capabilities obtaining aggregates and Recycled Concrete Paste of the highest quality. This makes us the first company in the industry to introduce this unique separation process at such a scale and quality. #HeidelbergMaterials #Sustainability #Innovation #Recycling

Over 3 billion tonnes of construction and demolition waste are produced globally every year, and how we deal with it is changing. As part of our signature GREENKEY SOLUTIONS, S/CRETE technology makes possible concrete recycling on an industrial scale. With its unique selective grinding technology, we can efficiently separate and reuse the components of waste concrete to reduce energy dependency and water consumption while minimizing carbon emissions. This patented process brings a new opportunity to achieve a truly circular economy in the cement industry. Our goal for selective concrete recycling is outlined in detail in this technical article, available for download here: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dfTmyvv4 #concreterecycling #sustainableconstruction #circularity #cementinnovation Article by Dr. Martin Reformat & André Trümer published in Global Cement Magazine, September 2024 issue.

Perfect summary of the advantages of #equitone fibercement panels- from the perspective of recycling. FDB Facade Design & Building Reduce- cutoff waste by optimaziation of the facade panel layout, and using the cutoffs like pe. Cladding material inside! Reuse- when demolishing buildings the fibercement panels could be still reused on another building thanks to its lifespan of more than 50 years Recycle- 100% can be recycled of our boards. Cutoffs and even the dust can be recycled and reused when producing new panels this way promoting the circular economy. #equitone #equitonehungary #fibercement # facade #szálcement #homlokzat

🌍Did you know? Although fibre cement can be energy-intensive to manufacture, its minimal weight contributes to the overall low energy requirements for the building. This makes it one of the most environmentally friendly facade cladding materials, with a lifespan of over 50 years, low maintenance requirements, and 100% recyclability after.   Reducing the carbon footprint of fibre cement facades can be significantly enhanced by focusing on recyclability and the creative use of residual materials. Advances in recycling technologies increasingly enable the recycling of fibre cement. By breaking down used fibre cement into its raw components, these materials can be reused in new production, reducing the need for new raw materials and the CO2 emissions associated with extraction and processing.   Using recycled materials in fibre cement production minimizes waste and reduces the environmental impact of disposal. Efficient collection and processing systems for spent fibre cement products can further streamline this recycling process. Additionally, promoting the use of recycled content in new fibre cement products supports a circular economy.   Overall, improving the recyclability of fibre cement facades will contribute to reducing their carbon footprint by decreasing raw material demand, energy consumption, and waste sent to landfill, resulting in more sustainable building practices. #fdb #dijkstra #sustanibility #recycling #carbonfootprint #fibrecement #facade #facadedesign #facadeengineering
