What is ecological construction? What are the new <a href=\"http:\/\/duinsa.es\/en\/non-slip-materials-to-prevent-accidents\/\">innovative materials<\/a> for Sustainable Construction? From <a href=\"http:\/\/duinsa.es\/en\/\">Duinsa<\/a> we explain it to you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Green Construction?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Green building is one that minimizes emissions of CO2 and other pollutants through the use of natural, recycled and locally sourced materials.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also characterized by the low generation of possible waste during the construction process and also takes into account its useful life, recycling and post-treatment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Innovative Materials for Sustainable Construction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Thermochromic cement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This type of cement changes color depending on the outside temperature. Thanks to these changes, the temperature of the facade of the house increases or decreases, which helps to have a comfortable room temperature inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self-repairing concrete<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The main objective of <a href=\"http:\/\/duinsa.es\/en\/self-repairing-concrete\/\">self-repairing concrete<\/a> is to put an end to the popular planned obsolescence. It has microcapsules that break apart to repair the concrete when internal cracks occur.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about <a href=\"http:\/\/duinsa.es\/en\/self-repairing-concrete\/\">self-repairing concrete<\/a> in the following article!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Synthetic roof tiles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>These roof tiles are made from fully recycled plastics and limestone, making them a sustainable and much cheaper alternative to traditional roof tiles.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fiber and composite panels<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Fiber and composite panels are made from Kevlar, fiberglass and carbon fiber. This makes them 30% cheaper and stronger than traditional brick partitions.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, it\u2019s a material that helps achieve energy savings of up to 50%, produces 100 times less waste than bricks and is fully recyclable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Semi-transparent wood<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The innovation with respect to this material lies in the creation of semi-transparent wood as a substitute for glass and with the aim of housing solar installations in buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3D printing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This technique, in addition to being fast, facilitates waste reduction, since the printers only use the material determined for the task in question.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Biomaterials can be used for the creation of houses, such as adobe, which is fully recyclable once its useful life is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plasma Rock<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Plasma Rock is a material made from recycled waste that achieves fully sustainable construction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Graphene<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s an elastic, light and flexible material with high thermal and electrical conductivity that makes it perfect for many uses, such as its use in paints, solar panels or concrete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Building materials have been evolving and now many of them are ecological materials.
