Holcim Germany, a building materials manufacturer, is now a new member of Madaster and a part of a network that now includes 21 companies along the complete value chain of the construction sector.

CEO of Holcim Germany, Thorsten Hahn, said that the alternative raw materials use and the product cycles closing are among the biggest challenges in the construction industry. With Madaster, the company is taking a big step closer to the circular economy vision.

Every registered building at Madaster gets a material pass, on which the material value and the current residual raw materials value are displayed. This new transparency about material values and properties forms a reliable data source for architects, property developers, and project developers to be able to plan the construction elements reuse and materials reuse in future projects in the long term.

Managing Director of Madaster Germany, Dr Patrick Bergmann told the media that a recording of targeted material in the planning stage and the seamless information transfer about the quality and origin of the materials and their current location over the whole life cycle is necessary for circular construction and building management.

Raw material procurement has to be reinvented, to promote the circular economy in the construction and real estate industries. Madaster – a digital cadastre in which all the important information about buildings, construction materials, and products is stored in a cloud platform online, allows these materials to be utilised sensibly and sustainably.
