A Dutch construction company active in the renovation of social housing wants to build and insulate in a circular way. The company is looking for partners to provide insulation systems for homes that can be disassembled and reused. The goal is to set up a project to jointly develop and apply an exterior wall insulation system.
Details:
In the context of the Dutch energy transition, there is, among other things, the challenge to insulate existing residential buildings. To potentially save energy, there is also a trend in social housing in the Netherlands to increase the recycling of building materials and build or renovate on a circular basis. To prevent the loss of space in the often small social housing units, additional insulation is usually added to the exterior wall. Conventional exterior wall insulation systems are applied with adhesives. This makes them difficult to remove and disassemble at the end of their service life. The result is mixed waste that cannot be reused.
The construction company has a large network in Dutch social housing and is already a pioneer in the development and application of circular construction methods. However, it lacks solutions in the area of circular exterior wall insulation systems. Although the company is open to insulation systems with different surfaces, a mineral brick slip surface is most promising for the Dutch situation.
Wanted partners/advice:
The company is therefore looking for partners to co-develop and/or supply one or more concepts for circular exterior wall insulation systems and façade cladding systems suitable for Dutch social housing. The collaboration is envisaged under a commercial agreement with technical support or a technical cooperation agreement.
