Building massive exhibition stands only for a few days can be debatable from a sustainability standpoint. That’s why we have taken all our fairs into consideration when calculating our CO2.
Borrow furniture from friends in the industry (in the last case we borrowed from SDW2020 and Halle).
Reuse whatever we can from the stands.
Recycle all materials possible.
BAUX wood fibres are FSC® and PEFCTM certified –– guaranteeing that they can be traced back to responsible forestry operations. The wood is collected from the Swedish forest in the direct surroundings of the factory in order to minimise negative CO2 emissions caused by longer transport distances. The small amount of wood waste that is generated as a result of production is taken care of—80% is used to heat the factory and drying plant. No waste is produced from the timber log.
Wood: 0,05
Cement production: 9,81
Cement carbon capture: -6,87
Raw materials total emissions: 2,99
Sweden: 1,74 (Green energy: Yes)
Australia: 0,10 (Green energy: Yes)
USA: 22,63 (Green energy: No)
From factory to end clients: 1,96
% of carbon capture: -70%
This means that we have a 70% reduction from the total CO2 that stem from the Wood Wool cement production.
The manufacturing process is 100% sustainable and highly technological. The cellulose mix is formed inside a 3D mould with a powerful vacuum method and dried under high pressure. The surface is nano-perforated using an advanced laser technique. All material waste is recycled back into the production process and re-used again. All water used is built into a closed circular system and recycled. The only emission from production is a tiny amount of pure and clean water vapour that is released as the material dries.
