The demand in the Architecture, Engineering, Infrastructure and Construction industry is driven by increased urbanisation and the need for architects, engineers and designers to design and construct buildings in a more efficient and sustainable way. Reducing energy consumption in new and existing buildings remains a high priority, along with decreasing environmental impacts related to building materials and process, as well as reduction of waste.
The drive for optimized Product Design, Manufacturing and Product Lifecycle Management comes from customer efforts to develop long-lasting sustainable products with good economic performance over complete lifecycles. Regulatory standards for comprehensive traceability and optimization of operational and embodied carbon are also driving the development.
Symetri’s Decarbonization offering helps the Construction and Manufacturing industries to reduce embodied and operational carbon emissions. Our highly experienced technology experts help to integrate sustainable design and build strategies and leverage digital manufacturing workflows to reduce costs and increase buildability into everyday processes.
We invest on our own technology development constantly to innovate and create solutions to support decarbonization of Construction and Manufacturing industries.
At Symetri, we understand the importance of sustainability in the construction industry. We offer services to help our customers address the environmental impact of buildings and building materials, as well as meet green building certifications and regulations that require LCA as a mandatory part of planning in various countries. Our expert guidance and support enable you to make environmentally responsible decisions for your building projects.
Decarbonization potential is the largest at the early stages of the project. Together with Symetri's technology partners we provide essential tools for the early-stage planning to support carbon-smart decisions related to site planning and building materials.
At Symetri, we are closely following industry trends and anticipating the future needs of our customers. As a collaborative R&D team, our Co-Innovation practice partners with other organizations to create new products, services, and processes. We prioritize sustainable solutions that address the evolving needs of our customers and communities we serve.
Symetri supports organizations in their sustainability efforts through the use of international standards and initiatives such as the 2030 Challenges, the Built Environment Declare, and aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and Agenda 2030.
Symetri, with Addnode Group regards these six SDGs as most relevant to our business, and where we have the greatest opportunity to make an impact.
The process of reducing and compensating carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions resulting from human activity in the atmosphere
The greenhouse gases (GHG) that are generated by our actions resulting global warming potential (GWP). Known as Building Carbon Footprint if related to greenhouse gases generated over building’s lifetime through its construction, operation and demolition.
Gases in the atmosphere which trap the heat. The main GHGs are water vapor, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O).
Heat absorbed by any greenhouse gas in the atmosphere; measures how much energy the emissions of one ton of any greenhouse gas will absorb over the period of time relative emissions of one ton of carbon dioxide (CO2).
Emissions related to materials and construction processes throughout the entire lifecycle of the building.
Carbon generated over the operation phase of the building by heating, electricity, ventilation, air conditioning, etc.
Refers to cutting greenhouse gas emissions to as close to zero as possible, with any remaining emissions re-absorbed from the atmosphere by carbon storages like oceans and forests.
A science-based methodology for quantifying the lifetime environmental impacts of a building (Building LCA) or product (Product LCA).
Declaration of the environmental impact of a product over the lifetime. Public EPDs are 3rd party verified providing creditable and neutral assessment of the products.
