1 Your Opportunities

Circular. Value-creating.

Circular building components create long-term value through their reusability. The SEMBLA® masonry system is economically viable from the first use cycle. Simple to plan, simple on-site.

Economic Efficiency

Sustainable investment

Buildings with circular components offer shorter construction times and efficient deconstruction or remodeling. The SEMBLA® masonry system has a reuse rate of over 90%, significantly reducing material costs in future cycles.

Ecological Balance

Big Impact

The ecological balance of a building improves significantly with low-CO₂ masonry. The structural shell accounts for about 45% of the total costs and simultaneously holds the largest share of CO₂ emissions.

2 Your Contribution

REDUCING CO₂.

Two key factors significantly reduce a building's CO₂ footprint: the use of secondary raw materials and the reuse of components. Simple and effective.

Economic Efficiency

Saving Emissions

European buildings account for over 30% of CO₂ emissions and 40% of primary energy consumption. Cement production generates about 8% of global CO₂ emissions. SEMBLA® uses geopolymer materials, which replace cement with fully mineral binders, requiring significantly less thermal energy for production.

Efficient Materials & Production

Today, the production and logistics of materials used in construction contribute up to 50% of a building's CO₂ footprint. By replacing cement and reducing energy input in production, SEMBLA® reduces CO₂ emissions by approximately 70%. This approach significantly lowers the environmental impact of the construction process.

Take-back Obligation

Our Guarantee

We take back all products that we produce and sell. This not only reflects our responsibility but also our commitment as a manufacturer to create circular material and value flows.

Conformity

Focus on Circularity

Circularity is a key focus in future regulations, with the EU Taxonomy expanding on January 1, 2024, and KfW funding programs encouraging the use of secondary raw materials and circular construction practices. While proof of material efficiency, resource use, life cycle analysis (LCA), and deconstruction is required, these regulations also open new business models for a more sustainable economy. For more information, visit the SEMBLA® website.

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)

We provide a verified LCA for our masonry system. The CO₂ footprint, along with other ecological balances, is scientifically presented here.

Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)

The EPD is a simplified version of an LCA and helps you quickly compare with other solutions. It also aids in creating a building passport. We connect you with the right partner for further support.

Digital Assembly and Deconstruction Guide

We generate digital assembly and deconstruction guides for your projects. With our product take-back guarantee, we keep them in the circular economy and take responsibility.

Thinking Circular for the Future of Construction

We are working with you to pave the way toward a circular economy. The necessary documentation for your projects will be available on our website starting summer 2024.
