SoundCircularity™ is the Ecophon circular service offering, designed to support the recycling and reuse of eligible Ecophon acoustic ceiling products. We continue to develop these services with partners across the value chain as part of our work on circularity.
We collect eligible used glass wool ceiling panels and sort the material for recycling into new construction materials. The service is currently available in seven countries.

Launched in Sweden in 2024, the Reuse service collects eligible used ceiling panels for quality assessment. Panels that meet the defined requirements can then be offered for use in new projects.

Choose quality-assessed Reused Ecophon panels as an alternative to newly manufactured panels. Demounted panels collected through our SoundCircularity™ Reuse service are carefully selected and made available for new construction projects. Ecophon Sweden and Ecophon France (and soon Ecophon Germany) currently operate fully established reuse programs and offer Reused panels for purchase.
We are innovating new material streams with ReFAB. During 2022, Ecophon partnered with The Loop Factory, LINK Arkitektur, Decibel by Johanson, LogTrade Technology and the University of Lund in an initiative to optimise the construction industry’s use of resources: ReFAB.

40% of all waste generated in the world comes from the construction industry where finishing materials and fittings are most frequently replaced and discarded. This challenge was tackled by a Danish start-up, the creator of the Too Good To Go app, when they planned their office in Warsaw.
“We are finishing an office fit-out project for a major client. Everyone is happy until the client suddenly asks: ‘and in what way is this design green? Because we’d like to tell people about that’.” What can you do to avoid finding yourself in a situation like this? How to design actually greener office interiors with acoustics in mind?
A stone's throw from the Öresund Bridge, is one of Sweden's first climate-neutral office buildings – Hyllie Terrass. It's among the first pilot projects for the construction industry's new (and toughest) sustainability certification: Sweden Green Building Council's NollCO2 certification.
The Nordic region is considered to be at the forefront when it comes to sustainable healthcare. To meet the increasing interest from international stakeholders, the Nordic Center for Sustainable Healthcare has gathered companies working with sustainable solutions and created the fictive Grønnköpingkið University Hospital.
