Sustainability is no longer a trend - it's a necessity. With increasing emphasis on reducing carbon emissions, improving energy efficiency, and promoting long-term environmental stewardship, the construction industry is under pressure to build smarter, and more responsibly. Klasse is proud to be part of this movement, providing materials that not only meet the highest performance standards but also align with global sustainability goals.
Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)
One of the most transparent ways to measure and communicate the environmental impact of building products is through Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs). Klasse G-board and C-board both carry verified EPDs, offering specifiers and architects a clear understanding of the products' life cycle impacts. These third-party certified documents cover everything from raw material extraction and manufacturing to transportation and disposal, providing a full picture of their sustainability credentials.
Low Embodied Carbon and High Durability
Both G-board and C-board are engineered to reduce embodied carbon, a key contributor to a building’s overall carbon footprint. Their robust, long-lasting design means fewer replacements and less material waste over time, supporting a circular economy approach.
Improving Energy Efficiency with KlasseROCK
Energy efficiency is crucial in sustainable building, and KlasseROCK Rainscreen Insulation is specifically designed to enhance thermal performance. With excellent thermal conductivity properties, KlasseROCK helps to significantly reduce heat loss through building envelopes, resulting in lower energy consumption, reduced energy bills, and improved occupant comfort.
ISO 14001 Certification: A Commitment to Environmental Management
Klasse's dedication to sustainability is reinforced through its ISO 14001 certification, an internationally recognised standard for environmental management systems. Achieving this certification demonstrates Klasse’s proactive approach to reducing environmental impacts, continually improving environmental performance, and ensuring compliance with applicable regulations.
Commitment Beyond the Product
Klasse’s commitment to sustainability extends beyond the products themselves. The company actively seeks ways to reduce its operational impact, from optimising packaging to planting trees around the world to investing in energy-efficient processes.
Sustainable construction isn’t just about the materials used - it’s about making informed, responsible choices at every stage of the building lifecycle. With Klasse G-board, C-board, and KlasseROCK Rainscreen Insulation, specifiers can be confident they're choosing materials that support sustainability without compromising on performance. As the industry moves towards a low-carbon future, Klasse is proud to be a part of the movement, with products that meet today’s needs while protecting tomorrow’s world.
