Travail de démolition

Z izdelavo oken iz odsluženega lesa se zmanjša količina lesa, ki se sicer odlaga na odlagališčih ali sežge. Staremu lesu se podaljša življenjska doba, kar neposredno vpliva na podaljšanje skladiščenja CO₂. Opredeljeni so ključni viri starega lesa, razvite tehnološke rešitve za uporabo takega lesa in razviti postopki za izdelavo oken v sodelovanju z raziskovalnimi organizacijami, s poudarkom na analizi onesnaženega lesa, fizikalnih lastnostih lesa in ustrezno površinsko obdelavo takšnih izdelkov. M Sora je razvila prototip lesenega okna ReWin iz odsluženega lesa. ReWin okno je edinstven primer izdelka, ki je bil razvit s ponovno uporabo odsluženega lesa, ki bi sicer končal na odlagališču, in predstavlja povsem svežo idejo in inovacijo na področju stavbnega pohištva.

UNILIN represents one of the most advanced recycling systems for valorizing post-consumer wood waste streams on large industrial scale. It relies on an established collection system and supplier network. Cascading wood reduces the need for fresh roundwood and prolongs the carbon capture. Particle boards from recovered wood are a prime case for Circular Economy in the sector. Highlights of innovative features :

• Large investments in high tech sorting and cleaning equipment enables the processing of huge volumes of demolition and urban waste: up to 1 million tons are recycled into panels per year.
• Chipboards are produced with up to 90% recycled wood.
• To offset carbon emissions, factories are powered 70-90% by renewable energy from wood waste that cannot be recycled.
• Partnerships with a large supplier network including container parks, demolition firms, packaging and furniture industries ensure the recovery of large wood volumes that are no longer usable for other processes.

Ob načrtni porušitvi dotrajanih objektov lahko predvsem iz ostrešja dobimo precejšnje količine lesa, ki s o primerne za nadaljno uporabo. S kaskadno rabo lesa se podaljša njegova življenjska doba in nadaljne  skladiščenje v lesu vezanega CO₂. Povpraševanje po izdelkih iz odsluženega lesa se povečuje, ob tem pa se pojavlja problem pridobivanja zadostnih količin primernega odsluženega lesa. Lkastniki takega lesa se pogosto ne zavedajo, da ga lahko oddajo/prodajo podjetju, ki bo iz njega naredil nov izdelek. S tem namenom je bila v sodelovanju med podjetjem M Sora in Univerzo na Primorskem razvita mobilna aplikacija in spletni vmesnik RecAPPture, preko katerega lahko lastniki odsluženega lesa oddajo svojo ponudbo. Aplikacija omogoča hitro izmenjavo informacij glede razpoložljie količine in vrste odsluženega lesa med ponudnikom in zainteresiranim podjetjem.

With the planned demolition of decrepit buildings, significant amount of wood suitable for further use roof can be obtained. Cascading use of wood prolongs its lifespan and further storage of CO₂ bounded in the wood. Demand for products from discharged wood is increasing and there a problem with ensuring sufficient quantities of suitable used wood occurs. Owners of such wood are often unaware that they can hand it over or sell it to a company that will make a new product out of it. For this purpose, in cooperation between the company M Sora and the University of Primorska, a mobile application and a web interface RecAPPture were developed. It enables the owners of used wood to submit their offer on discharged wood. The application enables a quick exchange of information regarding the availability of the quantity and type of used wood between the provider and the interested company.

By setting up these Wood MAKER spaces we want to promote wood as manufacturing and building material, as well as fostering local wood manufacturing as a real opportunity to generate local businesses and improve forest land-owners economies. We see that currently many broad-leaf species woods are being addressed to low-value uses, which causes employment and welfare losses at rural communities 4 Maker spaces are planned to be set up each in the 4 galician provinces. These centers will be open to all kinds of profiles interested on making a good use of local timbers, meaning non-expert and expert users to make all kinds of projects from DIY kind to professional commercialization projects. These spaces would make available a variety of services: wood manufacturing service (from wood log to semi or finished products), innovation service, design service, commercialization service, business digitalization among others.

The business idea is to build interior with recycled oak. The wood is mainly sourced from traditional European timbered houses. Special: wine press beams in giant size XXL up to 7 m long, in 45 - 45 cm dimension

Small but interesting niche market with high product prices.

Unique antique wood planks for wood panelling, for timber facades or visible roof construction and table tops from old oak wood.

The business idea is to gather used timber from castles, monasteries or old estates. The timber is being cleaned and nails are pulled out; no drying before delivery

It seems that there is a growing (niche) market for really old used wood to use for modern housing and interieur.

The product ranges from:
Old spruce timber (original surfaces)
Old spruce/oak timber (freshly chopped)
Old spruce timber (rough sawn surfaces)
Beams and rafters from old spruce /oak timber
3-layer-boards from old spruce/oak timber
Sawn old spruce/oak timber
House façades from old spruce timber

The business idea is to produce wall panellings and floor boards made from old timber

Recycled wood is an interesting niche

With experienced processes there can be unique products with character achieved. And furthermore coloured products available

Careful selection of old, reclaimed timber Dismantling and professional preparation for the international sale Marks of machining and wear as well as natural weathering create unique, original surfaces Traces of old world craftsmanship and elaborate woodworking methods and use are stored There is an interesting niche market for unique old wood. Unique wood with history and character is prepared and run for a second use High-quality, ecologically valuable, lasting value and sustainable Mostly processed manually, sorted and packaged Also supply of raw materials, semi-finished products to finished, ready to lay products and tailor-made solutions

Egger Romania invested in resource saving technology and included recycling in the process. Up to 18% of the wood used in Romanian factories are recycling material. They process waste wood from furniture, pallets, wooden packaging materials, construction and demolition, that meets the requirements of the applicable directives and inspection systems. The material is also inspected visually and contaminated wood is separated for thermal use. In Romania, the EGGER Group runs its own recycling enterprises under the name Timberpak.

Suitable recycled wood is processed there and used for chipboard production. Large volumes of by-products and recyclable wood are generated by the plants. The company upgrades them into materials or uses them to generate environmentally friendly heat and electricity. With EGGER wood-based materials, the company established good environmental performance of the urban wood material. The objective of a closed loop material cycle is, on the one hand, to reuse all waste and by products as efficiently as possible, and on the other hand, to make substances used in the product available again for production at the end of the product life cycle, by implementing optimal recycling. The possibility of a closed material cycle should be taken into account even during the preliminary stage of product planning in conjunction with product design. Re-use of materials that were already used in products and have passed through a usage phase. The great challenge is to separate materials so that they become again source materials for new products. The collection division of recycled wood and the recycling installation of wood from Romania are the EGGER’s solution for a secondary, sustainable life cycle of materials based on wood.

The recycling wood quantities which were elaborated and recycled in 2016 by EGGER Romania replaced the potential of usage of 35,000 hectares of forests. The company has a unique wood recycling installation in Romania, dedicated and used exclusively for this purpose. At Romanian level, EGGER uses in average 17 % recycled wood for the production of panels based on wood in 2018. Last year, EGGER Romania reached a level of approximately 8 % and in the half of 2017, while in 2017 reach 15 % of recycled wood, and it was estimated a share of 17 % for the second half of 2017. The objective for 2020 is to recycle more than 150,000 tonnes of materials based on wood, annually, equivalent to more than 30 % of the volume of wood from forest works, according to Ioan Banciu, technical director of EGGER Eastern Europe division.
