Clay building materials
Low Energy
The use of energy required for the production of building materials determines the majority of greenhouse emissions and therefore the carbon footprint. Time is of the essence: according to the UN Environment Program’s “Global Status Report for Building and Construction”, the construction and building sector accounts for 40% of global CO2 emissions. Clay building materials have their great strength here. A number of ClayTec products are even climate-positive due to their CO2-storing plant fibre content.
Climate-friendly. Circular. Clean.
In order to protect our environment and future generations, the construction and building sector needs sustainable building materials that use the earth’s resources sparingly and whose use has little or no impact on future generations. Above all, this should also take into account the dismantling of buildings, the recovery of building materials and the possible disposal of building materials, the so-called output factors. Clay is one such sustainable building material.
Healthy
A good indoor climate is created by balancing breathable surfaces and thermal heat storage mass. Clay can absorb large amounts of humidity and release it again when dry, and can also neutralise odours. Its thermal storage mass provides both heat protection in summer and comfortable heating in the winter. This creates feel-good rooms that also include good sound insulation.
