Ehituskonverents’ Post

🌱 Ehitus 2025+ podcast’s sixth episode is now available! 🎧 How can Estonia make its construction industry more sustainable and smarter in utilizing circular economy principles? 🏗️ In this episode, Aet Ader (President of the Estonian Association of Architects), Ivo Jaanisoo (Deputy Secretary General for the Living Environment and Circular Economy, Kliimaministeerium / Ministry of Climate of Estonia), and Kaja Pae (Head of the Construction and Living Environment Department, Ministry of Climate of Estonia) share their insights. 💡 Key points from the discussion: “Instead of building new structures, the public sector should prioritize refurbishing existing ones,” highlighted Kaja Pae. Aet Ader reflected on medieval practices, where stones from older buildings were reused to create new ones. “This shows that material reuse isn’t a new concept.” ⛪ Ivo Jaanisoo explained the essence of a circular economy in construction: “Sustainable building means materials get a second life in future projects, rather than ending up as waste.” ♻️ 🎙️ Listen to the full discussion on Delfi Tasku. 🎟️ Don’t miss your chance to attend the Ehitus 2025+: "New or Old?" conference and awards gala. #construction #Ehitus2025 #sustainability #renovation #circulareconomy
