Q&A

Hosted by GreeNest coordinator Maria Founti, and joined by experts Eike Roswag-Klinge and Andrea Klinge, the discussion delved into questions raised by the audience:

• Regarding the structural elements made from reused materials, particularly timber, could you elaborate on the challenges you faced with timber grading for these elements?

• When dealing with recycled wood, especially considering its potential previous exposure to microorganisms in old constructions, how do you address the biological aspects of the material to ensure structural integrity?

• Are there any existing regulations or standards that govern the long-term ageing and performance of recycled or reused timber in construction projects?

• How do you propose to reorganize the value chain and adjust the business model to facilitate the widespread adoption of nature-based construction solutions, particularly in urban environments?
