The Werkhof of the A16 motorway

New specifications with advantages for wood
04.09.2020
Public procurement law (BöB) has been revised and will enter into force at the beginning of 2021. The BöB and the newly published SIA 101 communication standard demand that sustainability be taken into account over the entire life cycle. This is a clear commitment to wood as a building material.
We rely on Swiss timber
02.09.2020
Wood is a naturally renewable raw material that only requires solar energy and water for its production. Harvesting and processing take place with very little energy and the material also stores CO2. As a Swiss timber partner, Timbatec is committed to the use of this domestic raw material - also in public tenders.
