Innovation

In the construction industry, sustainability is one of the biggest challenges for the coming years, and requires extensive innovation. This is why Cordeel Group actively focuses on innovation by researching innovative technologies that are both eco-friendly and people-friendly.

Putting innovative ideas into practice.

Current ideas of innovation include circular construction, methods to reduce energy consumption, and fire and personal protection.

Our umbrella innovation department C-innovation, accelerates these developments through all companies of the Cordeel Group. It also ensures that innovations get to our customers and onto the market.

BIM (Building Information Model)

With BIM, each and every building element can be included in a digital 3D model, whether it involves, for instance, reinforcement in a concrete column, Gyproc walls or duct systems. It creates a virtual collaboration model which all construction parties can derive information from and contribute to.

BIM evolves from a conceptual idea to an overall plan with any technical difficulties becoming obvious at an early stage. Solving these problems in the virtual environment results in enormous increases in time- and cost-efficiency on site. The model is also invaluable for maintenance and post-delivery management. We therefore work with BIM for every project.

Sustainable construction

Sustainability plays a key role in our choice of materials and site activities as well as production processes are shaped by our environment-friendly waste policy. Moreover, raw materials and finished products are transported by water as much as possible to reduce road vehicle emissions. In addition, we work according to BREEAM and strive to realise passive buildings with the lowest energy consumption. The multifunctional design of our buildings means they are also suitable for other purposes without the need for renovation or demolition.
