Sirkularitet

Vi resirkulerer mer enn bare materialer – vi resirkulerer muligheter.

"Byggenæringen står for 39 % av de globale CO₂-utslippene, og fortsatt resirkuleres ikke 75 % av byggeavfallet – det går til deponi eller forbrenning. Nye lover, forskrifter og klassifiseringssystemer skjerper nå kravet om å bygge sirkulært."
Lucile Souyri

Sustainability Manager HBS

Å kombinere sirkularitet med rehabilitering kan bli en betydelig konkurransefordel for alle aktører i bransjen.

Veien mot en sertifisert sirkulær økonomi

Fra utfordring til forretningsmulighet

Fra demontering til rehabilitering med lavt karbonavtrykk

Alt begynner med et bevisst valg om selektiv demontering – for å redusere avfall og gi materialer en ny sjanse gjennom gjenbruk og resirkulering. For at gjenvinning skal fungere i praksis, kreves spesialiserte systemer og prosesser for å samle inn, sortere, strimle og resirkulere materialer uten å gå på kompromiss med kvaliteten – akkurat slik vi jobber. Ved å bygge om med gjenvinnbare produkter laget av resirkulerte komponenter, lukker vi kretsløpet for å oppnå en virkelig bærekraftig fremtid.

CO2 er den nye valutaen

Gjennom samarbeid om sirkulær bygging kan vi alle bidra til en grønnere og mer ansvarlig byggebransje. Ved å ta tak i dagens klimaavtrykk allerede nå – før nye krav trer i kraft – bidrar vi ikke bare til å nå FNs bærekraftsmål, men også til å sikre verdien av fremtidens ressurser. Våre sertifiserte produkter er utviklet med sirkularitet som utgangspunkt, og hjelper deg å nå dine bærekraftsmål i byggeprosjektene dine.

Karbonfri renovering

Partner of choice

Circularity applied to buildings requires the mobilisation of an entire ecosystem of partners capable of meeting its demands. Thanks to our strong local network of metal builder, we recover post consumer raw materials. As part of Hydro Group, we can recycle and reuse them into the production cycle with full traceability and certification at every step. It makes the difference!

Our method of embracing circularity

For almost a decade, sustainability has been at our core—thanks to game-changing collaborators who turn ambition into impact.

Commited since 2018

In 2018, products made with recycled end-of-life aluminium were on demand. Today, this is our standard offer.

Hydro CIRCAL aluminium

75% recycled, 95% recyclable

Made from at least 75% recycled and 95% recyclable content, our products offer a low-carbon solution, backed by a dynamic EPD.

What is a dynamic EPD?

A process well organised

For the 1st time, in 2024, we recover old aluminium from our metal builder to feed our recycling plant. Today, we are able to accompany any project of circular renovation.

our role as a reliable force in circular renovation

Our role as a reliable force in circular renovation

STEP 1: Renovation of Buildings Renovating buildings creates material flows and reuses existing resources. Cities are full of valuable materials, yet 75% of construction waste is unrecycled.

STEP 2: Recover End-of-Life Aluminium Systems We partner with builders to reclaim old aluminium systems. Unlike other materials, aluminium is fully and infinitely recyclablein retaining its properties after each use, making it highly valuable.

STEP 3: Dismantling and Sorting Builders dismantle frames, sorting out aluminium, glazing and EPDM gaskets. We handle the aluminium, while partners recycle the rest. In selling us the aluminium, metal builders work with a circularity manage for seamless logistics and traceability

STEP 4: Shredding & Sorting At HYDRO’s plant, shredded aluminium is separated from other metals.The right alloys go to the melting plant, while polyamide and EPDM chipsare also sorted for recycling.

STEP 5: Remelting Aluminium is remelted, saving 95% of the energy compared to primary production. Hydro CIRCAL 75R reduces CO2 emissions by 85% compared to global averages

STEP 6: Back to Material Manufactured with sustainable operations and a sourcing of recycled materials to close the loop and reduce drastically CO2 footprint

STEP 7: Back to new Aluminium Systems Made with 75% recycled content and recyclable at 95%, demonstrating circular design. They reduce energy consumption, have longer lifespans and are easier to maintain, dismantle, and recycle

STEP 8: Back to Buildings Digital Product IDs enables full traceability, supporting maintenance and recycling. Products meet future needs and help preserve building value
