CO2-reduzierter Glasfaserbeton

Rieder is currently working on the development of a cement-reduced and later a cement-free concrete matrix for innovative building envelopes. The cement used in the Rieder facade panels is thus gradually being replaced by natural and local pozzolana; this material require lower temperatures for production and therefore emits less carbon dioxide. In a first step, 50 percent were substituted, thus saving 30 percent in CO2 emissions. This makes the family-owned company the first facade manufacturer to produce CO2-reduced glassfibre reinforced concrete.
