Drees & Sommer is pleased to announce its accreditation to create building material inventories by the Luxembourg Ministry of Environment, Climate and Biodiversity. This accreditation allows the company to provide comprehensive material inventories, which is an important step towards sustainable construction and demolition processes and ensures regulatory compliance.
Providing a material inventory involves identifying and cataloguing all materials in a building, especially before demolition to facilitate separation and collection of components to be reused. This helps to better manage waste, maximise recycling and minimise environmental impact. In Luxembourg, the law requires the creation of such an inventory for new building and before the demolish of existing ones.
Dr. Marielle Ferreira Silva, Sustainability Consultant at Drees & Sommer Luxembourg, said: “We are proud to have received this accreditation. It highlights our commitment to sustainability and innovation in construction. With the building material inventory, we can identify the potential for future reuse of building stock at the same time help our customers to make their projects more environmentally friendly and resource efficient.”
Drees & Sommer offers added-value complete solutions that meet the specific requirements of each project. The company also handles operational implementation. Since 2017, Drees & Sommer is an international expert in material inventories through the group's company EPEA. With the new accreditation, Drees & Sommer is ideally equipped to support its customers in achieving their sustainability goals also in the Grand Duchy.
