Climate change
Global surface, and sea surface temperature, highest on record
Greenhouse gases highest on record
COP 21 Paris (meeting in Paris for the climate) had agreement from everybody and is combatting sceptics
Better construction and use of buildings in the EU would influence:
42% of our final energy consumption , 35% of our greenhouse gas emissions and more than 50% of all extracted materials ;

Energy savings is the biggest energy deposit of any country
Energy savings

easy to extract
Pay once
Strategic independence

A step change in sustainability
for binder technology
Indoor Air Quality and Environmental Impact
New binder technology without added formaldehyde
Based on rapidly renewable materials instead of petro-based chemicals
Reduces impact on environment through lower embodied energy
Reduces workplace exposures and pollutant manufacturing emissions
Impact on indoor air quality once installed in buildings
ECOSE, a revolutionary technology:

Superior level of sustainability
Mineral wool with ECOSE Technology delivers a super ior level of sustainability…
Manufactured from naturally occurring and/or recycled materials
Free from formaldehyde, phenols and acrylics
Contributes to improved indoor air quality compared to our conventional mineral wool
Improves the overall sustainability of buildings
Lower embodied energy
Improves the overall sustainability of buildings

In Green Building Rating Systems , a clear tendency
In all Green Building Rating Systems, increasing foc us on: Construction Materials sourcing:• Responsible supply chain (Raw materials ISO 14001 c ertified
suppliers)…• Recycled content• Wood from sustainable forest (FSC certification)…
Products and Buildings Life Cycle Assessment (LCA):• Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)• Building Life Cycle Assessment• Building Life Cycle Costing
Indoor air quality and comfort:• Reduced formaldehyde emissions and VOCs• Thermal & acoustic comfort

The question is…… how to measure, analyze and communicate product’s
environmental impact?

• Climate change, circular economy:• GWP (Global Warming Potential) and Resource Used are THE LCA priority indicators
of the EU Commission building framework, LEVELS (August 2017) => ECOSE Technology and recycled content are significantly contributing to improve these indicators
• EcoDesign: for some applications (i.e. partition walls), replacing NaturBoard Fit Plus by Decibel with ECOSE improve environmental impact
� NaturBoard Fit Plus = 1 m³ NaturBoard Fit Plus
� Decibel = 1 m³ Decibel
• All Knauf Insulation ECOSE products are covered by a LCA. It demonstrates transparency and leadership in the way we want to position our innovation. These LCA are available for buildings LCA calculations.
