Modularity & Ease of Disassembly

The most sustainable building is the one that is not demolished. To extend the lifetime of a building, we should pay attention to the circular character of its components. Modular construction methods, as well as adaptive and easy-to-dismantle façade solutions, can help give new life to existing building projects.

Unitised façade system that builds the future

Modular façade systems such as ElementFaçade 7 allow for easy prefabrication of building elements at the workshop. Moreover, units can be swiftly installed from inside the building and are easily removed, replaced or disassembled. As a result, on-site construction time and production waste is limited, and carbon emissions linked to transportation and site activities can be drastically reduced.
