Kundenengagement

Kundenengagement

Die gesamte Bauindustrie ist für 37 % der weltweiten Treibhausgasemissionen verantwortlich. 98 % der in dieser Branche verwendeten Materialien landen am Ende ihres Lebenszyklus auf Mülldeponien oder in geringwertigen Anwendungen. Mit unseren Leichtbaulösungen kann Etex eine wichtige Rolle spielen, indem wir mit unseren Kunden zusammenarbeiten und ihnen Lösungen liefern, die nachhaltig, effizient, sicher und schön sind. Bis 2025 haben wir die Art und Weise, wie wir mit unseren Kunden zusammenarbeiten, verändert und die nachhaltigen Eigenschaften unserer Leichtbaulösungen verbessert.

  • Our brand URSA expanded its returnable pallet system in Poland, France, the Benelux region and Germany. In 2024, we introduced the system in Germany for fibre cement solutions under our brands Eternit, Cedral and EQUITONE, with Promat adopting it in early 2025.
  • Obtained Cradle to Cradle Certified® Bronze certificates for many of our lightweight solutions, including EQUITONE fibre cement façade solutions (version 3.1) and over 150 gypsum references for Siniat and Promat in France, Italy and the Netherlands (version 4.0).

Etex first mover in industry to offer circular content declarations

Etex first mover in industry to offer circular content declarations

At Etex, we see waste as a valuable resource to be repurposed, not discarded. As an industry first-mover, we offer Circular Content Declarations, demonstrating our leadership in transparency and sustainability. In 2024, we expanded these declarations across our platforms, providing customers and stakeholders with clear, accessible information on our products’ environmental impact. This circular content refers to the proportion of materials in a product derived from recycled or repurposed sources, reducing reliance on virgin materials. We initially launched it with Promat fire protection boards, publishing over 30 declarations, and have since expanded to include EQUITONE, Cedral and Siniat products across multiple countries. This initiative strengthens our commitment to minimising the use of virgin and non-renewable materials as part of our broader circularity goals.
