Sustainable Cladding

Deutsche Steinzeug AG works to high social and environmental standards. We are committed to continuous improvement of our environmental footprint and have installed an energy management system in accordance with ISO 50001. All materials are responsibly sourced and nearly all raw materials are extracted close to our production sites in Germany.

100% Natural - Made of clays, feldspar, silica and natural mineral oxides, Neolith® will not emit toxic fumes into the environment when exposed to fire or extremely high temperatures.

100% Recyclable - Due to its natural composition, Neolith® can be recycled and reduced to its aggregates. Up to 52% of any Neolith® slab is composed of recycled raw materials.

Near-Zero Porosity - With a porosity of less than 0.08 percent, Neolith® is impervious to absorption, making it a hygienic product resistant to bacteria that can cause disease and trigger allergies.

Offering high-quality wood based compact, and HPL panels with various decors, Fundermax positions itself at the very heart of the architecture of a building. We design and manufacture a broad spectrum of products made from natural materials that are easy to work with, in order to provide architects, designers, facade designers, interior designers, and industrial companies with solutions that stand the test of time.

Fundermax has been processing natural materials with precision and love for 130 years. Today, we are manufacturers of high-quality timber composite materials and a global leader in compact laminates for both internal and external applications. Fundermax stands for nothing less than top quality and excellent design.

Dupont ArmorWall helps create the perfect wall assembly. When it comes to sustainability in construction, our biggest challenge is optimizing the efficiency of buildings. With ArmorWall, in a simple single product the client receives the best in class wall envelope product. Combined, the elements of ArmorWall enhance the building’s insulation value, moisture and vapor control, and thermal bridging. In addition, since the board is structural, it reduces or eliminates many attachment products and sharply reduces the carbon footprint of any façade assembly.

Especially primary, rich and naturally occurring mineral materials are used for the production of glass-fiber reinforced concrete. Glass-fiber reinforced concrete is stable mineral-based material and is almost inert.

Although glass-fiber reinforced concrete is produced mainly from primary raw materials, this is very environmentally friendly technology. When compared with other materials, concrete products and structures are generally durable, weather resistant, low-impact of degradation effects. This is related to lower costs of operation, maintenance or restoration.

As a global engineering company, sustainability is an essential component of our strategy, we create long-term value through our core business while seeking to balance environmental, social and economic aspects.

In architecture and construction, a green and sustainable building can maintain or improve the quality of life of the environment with particular features by achieving a high level of efficiency: reducing the consumption of resources, minimises pollution and enhance the comfort level of users. Internationally accepted official recognition certificate programs establishes the sustainability level of a building.
