TECNOLOGY
Our revolutionary patented process is based on the so-called “Clean Technology”, a green cold technology (with temperatures below 80 ° C) that allows the transformation of by-products and secondary raw materials into functional materials for green building, obtained up to 100% from recycled material, thanks to a development carried out entirely on a circular economy model, which contributes to the reduction of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, due to the reduction of energy consumption with the non-use of fossil fuels within the process and the exploitation of virgin raw materials.
with
Traditional production processes are slow, economically and ecologically inconvenient, and involve the use of a large amount of virgin raw materials, high energy consumption and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
Thanks to a carefully designed process and the optimization of incoming raw materials, it is possible to fine-tune various characteristics of the final products such as visual appearance, color, shape and performance.
The process involves the recovery and transformation of different types of by-products and secondary raw materials: recycled glass, inert steel residues, end-of-life tires, and other industrial waste.
With the versatility of the process, the production of different product classes is foreseen starting from a single production process, specifically designed for bio-compatible flooring, both indoors and outdoors for any type of environment from residential to commercial up to industrial, as well as a specific line for urban furniture and under development for thermal and acoustic insulation.
STAGES OF THE PROCESS
1
Recovery and reuse of secondary raw materials
2
Mixing and activation
3
Vibro compaction and pressing
4
Seasoning from 4 to 12 hours
RAW MATERIAL
We only use secondary raw materials:
We select waste and by-products according to our standards, such as glass, mining, steel, ceramic waste, etc. which are in no way considered waste or special waste.
We do not use virgin raw materials such as cement or other hydraulic binders.
Pigments can be added to color the mixture or the surface layer of the product.
MIXING
Upon their arrival, the recycled materials are unloaded into the hopper and subsequently processed and mixed as a semi-wet mixture before moving on to the next phase.
During the mixing phase, no water is used but only our activating solution.
No type of additive is added inside the dough.
PRESSING
In this phase, the mixed dough passes into continuous demoulding machines where a vibro compaction takes place and they release the finished product which can be single-layer or double-layer.La vibro compattazione consiste in un processo industriale combinato di vibrazione e pressione per conferire le caratteristiche richieste di resistenza e durabilità.
SEASONING
Curing phase from 4 to 12 hours in which the mixture develops reactions and begins to acquire its resistance properties, times can be reduced with curing cells at a controlled temperature.
The duration of maturation can be influenced by several factors.
Accelerated steam curing systems can be used without affecting reactions and properties.
STRENGTHS
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
The recovery and transformation of different types of by-products and secondary raw materials, allows our products to be made from 100% recycled materials.
Suffice it to say that for every 100 square meters produced we recover +8000 Kg of secondary raw materials and -500 Kg of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The low temperatures allow us not to use fossil fuels
(ex. methane) and save over 80% of primary energy and drastically reduce CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by 90%.
We can only feed ourselves with the use of renewable sources.
SUSTAINABILITY & VERSATILITY
Not only environmental sustainability but also economic and process sustainability, with continuous evolution and technological research to meet the continuous needs for change and innovation.
The production process is then easily adaptable and replicable on existing plants.
