MORE PERFORMANCE WITH LESS
The environmental impact of the construction sector is significant: 40% of solid waste, nearly 50% of the consumption of natural resources, and 12%
of water consumption. Circular models contribute to the respect for the environment and the preservation of resources and biodiversity.
