Materials put to the circular economy test: life cycles, durability and profitability

To make construction truly sustainable and able to contribute to today's environmental challenges, the sector must adopt a circular model that starts with the use of natural, recyclable and recoverable materials. At the same time, we need to rethink construction processes, with an increasing focus on off-site techniques that improve efficiency and quality while reducing environmental impact. This approach is no longer in the experimental phase, but is being fully applied, with innovations that are constantly evolving and redefining industry standards. The use of new materials is complementing traditional construction materials such as steel and concrete. The construction process must consider product durability, an essential criterion for defining the life cycle of a building from a circular perspective.
