The construction sector is responsible for around 38 per cent of global CO2 emissions. Natural resources for traditional building materials are finite. The use of sustainable building materials and environmentally friendly recycled products therefore plays a decisive role in the climate-friendly realisation of new construction projects, conversion projects and renovation measures. High-quality recycled products made from tyre rubber granulate are perfect for a wide range of sustainable construction and renovation measures in houses and flats - from coverings and wall systems in cellars and garages to flooring and impact sound insulation on balconies and terraces to building protection mats for green roofs with photovoltaic systems.
The more high-quality recycled products made from tyre rubber granulate are used in new builds, conversions, renovations and refurbishments, the better it is for people and the environment. The use of recyclable products helps to keep valuable raw materials in circulation, conserve natural resources, reduce CO2 emissions, avoid waste and thus also optimise the personal ecological balance. The high-quality recycled products made of rubber granulate open up new design freedom for homeowners, flat owners and tenants who are concerned about sustainability thanks to their individual shapes and colours and also pay for themselves quickly in economic terms, as they are low-maintenance, easy to clean, weatherproof and extremely durable.
Highest living quality from the basement to the top floor
Visually appealing floors made from recycled rubber granulate ensure maximum living comfort from the basement to the attic. Available in various shapes, colours and material thicknesses, including paving stone look, the floor coverings are easy to lay, require minimal maintenance and help to insulate against footfall noise. The elastic rubber flooring is easy on the joints and protects against injuries in the event of falls. They are extremely robust and can easily withstand even heavy loads.
Covers and wall systems made from recycled rubber are used wherever people, building elements or vehicles need to be protected - for example as ram or edge protection, as a stair tread, as an edge cover for building elements or as a skirting board. Cracks in rain gutters or cellar walls, as well as small holes in flat roofs, can be optimally repaired with rubber granulate sealant. The sealant forms a waterproof, super-strong rubber skin for all types of structural waterproofing.
If sensitive building materials need to be protected from mechanical influences and damage, building protection mats made of rubber granulate are particularly suitable: thanks to their elasticity, they can be placed on uneven substrates and then protect bitumen sheeting or other flat roof waterproofing, for example. Sustainable rubber mats, whose material density, degree of hardness, geometric shape and material thickness can be adapted to any requirement, are also the first choice for sound or vibration insulation (e.g. impact sound insulation) of floors in living spaces, terraces and balconies.
The sustainable basis for climate protection and the energy transition
To protect the waterproofing and insulation of green roofs from roots and excess water in the long term, robust building protection mats made from recycled rubber granulate are the first choice. The hard-wearing, spade and rot-proof mats offer maximum protection for the roof and are optionally equipped with an integrated drainage layer. A filter fleece on the surface allows liquids to seep through reliably. Evenly profiled, the underside of the appropriately equipped mat ensures reliable drainage. Roof waterproofing can also be protected from damage caused by the elements of photovoltaic systems with rubber granulate building protection mats. The highly resistant mats and protective layers also ensure the long-term stability of solar installations. They are extremely robust, resilient, flame-retardant and resistant to flying sparks and radiant heat.
