CAS ETH in Regenerative Materials – Essentials

earth - bio-based - reused

Think Regenerative!

It is time to go beyond sustainability. Alternativesolutions out of local resources such as earth, bio-based and reused materials are emerging all over the world and are triggering regenerative outputs, thanks to their capacity to contribute to the restoration and improvement of the surrounding natural and social environment. However, they are not widespread in the construction sector due to lack of information on the side of decision makers and lack of competence on the side of practitioners.

A programme entirely dedicated to earth, bio-based and reused materials and construction techniques: It provides tools and methods to manage projects using earth, bio-based and reused materials with efficiency and creativity.
