Act now! This will be one of the main headlines when Building Green comes to Hamburg on 19-20 June 2024. Over the two days, visitors will be able to listen to more than 50 speakers and meet 70 exhibitors, including Troldtekt GmbH.

More action and less talk will be a focal point at the event at Fischauktionshalle, where admission is free. The construction industry bears a substantial part of the responsibility for climate challenges and also has the solutions and knowledge required to reduce the footprint significantly.

Building materials with a lower carbon footprint, more circular solutions and optimisation of existing square metres are examples of important themes.

 

Cradle to Cradle and low-carbon cement

At stand 10, you can experience a range of Troldtekt acoustic solutions that are Cradle to Cradle Certified® at gold level. With certification under the international design concept, Troldtekt has committed to making ongoing progress in areas such as material health, circularity and renewable energy.

At the stand, we will showcase selected design solutions that allow us to combine good acoustics with distinctive design. All solutions at the stand are  based on the cement type FUTURECEM™, which has a lower carbon footprint than traditional cement.

Measured throughout the entire life cycle, Troldtekt based on FUTURECEM has a carbon footprint that is respectively 26 and 38 per cent lower than Troldtekt based on traditional grey and white cement.

Troldtekt will share its stand at Building Green with QbiQ, which offers glass wall solutions. The solutions from QbiQ are also Cradle to Cradle Certified. In addition, the Cradle to Cradle Product Innovation Institute, which is responsible for the certification scheme, also has a space at the stand for visitors to learn more about the concept.
