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.

Recycling service

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.

Reuse service

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.

Products

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.

Ongoing innovation projects

The ReFAB project was initiated in 2022 and carried out together with The Loop Factory, LINK Arkitektur, Design by Johanson, Decibel, LogTrade Technology and Lund University. The aim was to optimise the construction industry's use of resources through new forms of collaboration and circular business models.

Through the project, the partnership has successfully demonstrated how materials previously considered waste can be given new life in commercially viable products. The Second Chance series is a concrete example of how innovation, design and sustainability can be combined to reduce resource consumption and contribute to a more circular construction and interior design sector.

Biroja dizains saskaņā ar aprites ekonomiku

40% no visiem pasaulē radītajiem atkritumiem nāk no būvniecības nozares, kur furnitūra un apdares materiāli visbiežāk tiek nomainīti un izmesti. Šo izaicinājumu risināja Dānijas jaunuzņēmums, lietotnes Too Good To Go radītājs, plānojot savu biroju Varšavā.

Mazāk atkritumu - praktiski padomi biroja dizainam

“Mēs pabeidzam biroja iekārtošanas projektu lielam klientam. Visi ir priecīgi, līdz pēkšņi klients jautā: “un kādēļ šis dizains ir uzskatāms par "zaļu"? Mēs vēlētos par to pastāstīt cilvēkiem." Ko darīt, lai nenokļūtu šādā situācijā? Kā izveidot patiesi "zaļāku" biroja interjeru, paturot prātā akustiku?

"Hyllie Terrass" – biroju ēka, kas ar nelielu nospiedumu atstāj lielu iespaidu

Akmens metiena attālumā no Ēresunda tilta atrodas viena no Zviedrijas pirmajām klimatneitrālajām biroju ēkām – "Hyllie Terrass". Tas ir viens no pirmajiem izmēģinājuma projektiem būvniecības nozares jaunajam (un visstingrākajam) ilgtspējības sertifikātam: Zviedrijas Zaļās būvniecības padomes NollCO2 sertifikācijai.

Grønnköpingkið – "zaļākā" slimnīca pasaulē

Tiek uzskatīts, ka Ziemeļvalstu reģions ir vadošais ilgtspējīgas veselības aprūpes jomā. Lai apmierinātu pieaugošo starptautisko ieinteresēto pušu interesi, Ziemeļvalstu Ilgtspējīgas veselības aprūpes centrs ir pulcējis uzņēmumus, kas strādā ar ilgtspējīgiem risinājumiem, un izveidojis fiktīvu Grønnköpingkið Universitātes slimnīcu.
