Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM have a reduced carbon footprint compared to Troldtekt based on traditional cement.
The cement in Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool is responsible for the strength, durability and fireproofing properties of the acoustic panels. However, the cement also accounts for virtually their entire carbon footprint.
Therefore, it is something of a breakthrough that you can now choose Troldtekt based on FUTURECEM cement. With this solution, you can look after the climate while enjoying all the well-known advantages of Troldtekt acoustic panels.
FUTURECEM from Aalborg Portland exploits the synergies between calcined clay and limestone filler. In this way, much of the burnt clinker in the cement can be replaced. The result is cement with an approx. 30 per cent lower carbon footprint.
Over their entire product life cycle, the carbon footprint of Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM is:
26 per cent lower than that of Troldtekt based on grey cement
38 per cent lower than that of Troldtekt based on white cement.
The total carbon footprint for Troldtekt acoustic panels based on traditional grey cement is 7.41 kg CO2-Eq/m2 throughout their entire product life cycle, while for Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM it is 5.45 kg CO2 Eq/m2.
Troldtekt based on FUTURECEM is suitable as a base panel for painting with both light and dark colours. For building projects, it is also possible to choose natural grey (FUTURECEM).
