New Troldtekt panels with reduced carbon footprint


S ince 2012, Danish acoustic panel


manufacturer Troldtekt has led the way with its sustainable practices and


leadership. An early adopter of the Cradle- to-Cradle design concept, the company has focused on its material health, reutilisation, energy,


water and social responsibility


winning recognition and numerous green awards over the years. The inclusion of FUTURECEM™ within


its wood wool panels has further enhanced the manufacturing process, helping Troldtekt further solidify their Cradle-to-Cradle Gold Certification. FUTURECEM sourced from Aalborg Portland exploits the synergies between calcined clay and limestone filler. With this process, much of the burnt clinker in the cement can be replaced resulting in a bonding agent with a much lower carbon footprint. The result means that now, over their product life cycle, the carbon footprint of Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM are 26% lower than


ADF10_Troldtekt_Insulation - Acoustic_HPAdv.indd 1


that of Troldtekt based on grey cement and 38% lower than that of Troldtekt based on white cement.


This innovation,


company’s sole use of wood from FSC® PEFC™ managed forests has helped Troldtekt


coupled with the and


get one step closer to its strict environmental targets. It also further enhances a building’s contributions towards BREEAM, WELL, LEED and DGNB-Certifications. Troldtekt acoustic panels are available in a variety of different structures and colours combining superior sound absorption with award-winning design. The Troldtekt range has a minimum expected life cycle of 50 years coupled with excellent resistance to humidity and tested to meet ball impact standards. The range is available in various sizes and structures, from extreme fine to coarse. They can be supplied as natural wood or finished in almost any RAL or NCS colour. Depending on the panel specified, reaction to fire is classed in accordance with EN 13501 as B-s1,d0 or A2-s1,d0 respectively. Samples, case studies, EPD’s and technical guidance are available from the website.
