Sustainability overview
EQUITONE has achieved Cradle to Cradle Certified at the Bronze level for all fibre cement materials. Recognised as a preferred product sustainability standard throughout the building industry, certification allows architects to know immediately that a material meets some of the world’s most rigorous performance standards for humans and for the environment.
At EQUITONE, we dedicate ourselves to reuse and recycle all our materials, giving them a second life. With your help, we want to take it one step further and rethink the way they are designed and used, reducing our natural resource consumption and cutting out waste.
Our 3 focus areas:
- Circular design - Designing our materials as a modular system that is easy to dismantle, repair and rebuild – making sure they can be reused and recycled over and over again.
- Light-impact construction - Reducing our footprint across the value chain to create materials that are built to be light-impact.
- Radical collaboration for lasting change - Breaking down industry silos to eliminate the total footprint of our materials – not just in production, throughout their entire life cycle.
