About this project
<p>Combine energy efficiency with the recovery of waste, namely plastics and RCD, as well as to encourage an increase in prefabrication (modular construction) in the construction industry. optimize a commercial solution with a modular enclosure, produced by the consortium's industrial partner, consisting of modular panels (SIP - structural insulated panels) with approximately 3m2 consisting of a central body of high-thickness thermal insulation (> 15cm) In addition to the use of waste for the development of new materials, the reuse of the envelope panels will be promoted, due to their modular characteristics, as well as the reuse of wood from the OSB panels. jobs created. Construction and demolition waste saved in the supported sectors. Innovative solutions for increased resource efficiency piloted. SMEs supported.</p>
