Infrastructure construction as a decarbonization contribution
01.12.2021
The motion "Research and innovation of wood as a material for use in infrastructure construction as a contribution to decarbonization" was adopted in the Council of States and the National Council. The task now is to replace reinforced concrete with CO₂-storing materials such as wood in infrastructure construction. Timbatec is looking forward to this exciting task and is happy to support the federal government.

Building physics: The new magazine is here
20.10.2021
We feel comfortable in buildings with good building physics solutions. In summer, buildings should not overheat, and in winter they should not consume too much energy for heating. And anyone who has ever suffered from noise from neighbors knows how important good sound insulation is. Because building physics is a central topic in timber construction, we are dedicating a magazine to it.
