What do you get for it?

Regulations regarding the reuse of raw materials are becoming increasingly strict (European Green Deal, EPBD, Flemish Energy and Climate Plan, etc.).

Lower costs for demolition and waste processing

Solution for your storage: more valuable space for other purposes

No technical sheets or documents required

Fewer new forests cut down by using wood for longer

Fewer transport movements required
