Circular building

Circular construction means choosing materials from the outset in such a way that they can be used multiple times. We help building owners, architects and project developers to measurably integrate circular economy into construction projects, in the construction and refurbishment of individual buildings and districts to entire cities and their infrastructure. This creates solutions with measurable impact, economical and sustainable.

Circularity Consulting

EPEA enables project teams from designers to contractors, manufacturers, developers and investors to implement the Cradle to Cradle design process. To make this possible, we support the planning process with “Circularity Consulting”. We show which measures can be taken to improve the circularity of the building and thus create innovative results.
We ensure that your project enables circularity and optimizes performance based on clear, measurable indicators.

Urban Mining

Improving the energy efficiency of our building stock to modern standards, whilst retaining products and materials in use to avoid extraction and waste, is one of the central challenges of our time. EPEA unlocks this transformation through the Cradle to Cradle® principle, analysing the material value of buildings, developing urban mining concepts and enabling circularity at a systemic scale by bringing materials back into circulation via an industrial REUSE network.
Saving resources through reprocessing of secondary raw materials
Securing residual raw materials, buildings as material banks
Reducing disposal costs, construction waste, transportation costs, etc.
