Circular Economy and Responsibility in Infrastructure Construction

We are at the forefront of making Finland a model country for the circular economy – responsibility is the core of our operations.

EcoIntellect’s low-carbon binder supports sustainable infrastructure construction

EFFECTIVE REDUCTION OF ENERGY AND RAW MATERIAL COSTS

  • low-quality soil materials can be efficiently utilized
  • the need for transportation is minimized, which reduces both logistics costs and environmental impacts
  • the need to transport excavated soil is reduced
  • materials that require more energy, such as lime and cement, are replaced by using a recycled binder

CONFIRMED
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY

  • actively strives to meet the demands of a carbon-neutral society
  • emphasizing the importance of protecting sand and gravel ridges, which are vitally important as filters for valuable groundwater
  • the principles of the circular economy are integrated into comprehensive land development

PROMOTES SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

  • future business operations are based on the use of recycled materials
  • as the main raw material of the binder, industrial by-products that end up in secondary use or casting are utilized and this saves natural stone materials
  • the production of binder and the replacement of limestone with binder significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions

The carbon footprint of the EcoIntellect’s binder is up to 65-85% lower than that of conventional construction materials.

The CO2 emissions generated in the manufacture and processing of low-carbon binder are lower than with traditional building materials. The raw material of the binder innovation is a substance obtained from industrial surplus materials, which helps to reduce the landfill load and the resulting costs.
