Our demand

Making every millimetre good for sustainable development

“Less is more” comes in many guises. Architects are concerned about more than just reducing energy and resource consumption. They are also endeavouring to achieve visually coherent results with fewer materials and simple shapes. Agrob Buchtal is developing ranges that have the right answer to the question of how aesthetic, durable and healthy neighbourhoods, homes and workplaces can be created. There are other requirements and challenges depending on the property – home, shopping centre, laboratory, airport, hospital, subway, swimming pool. And every millimetre of material counts in minimising the carbon footprint of buildings. That’s why we are now changing the majority of new wall and floor tiles and, where feasible, making them as light and thin as possible.
