ReWood
A standardized building facade panel made from waste wood.
Aarhus, Denmark
We make facade-panels from "waste-wood" in a collaboration with recycling stations and municipalities. At the same time we create CSR-jobs by providing a safe productionline that can be maintained by citizens outside the jobmarket.
By upcyling and refining waste-wood we are giving new life to waste-wood.
In Denmark 283.000 tonnes of wood - that we are able to recycle - are being thrown out every year. That amount equals 283.000 tonnes CO2 that we can save and storage.
