Easy to build – easy to dismantle in an environmentally friendly way

The difference between demolition and dismantling lies in the details. Those who rely on simple, detachable connections — instead of adhesives — turn buildings at the end of their service life into valuable sources of raw materials rather than waste.

Easy to assemble—easy to dismantle. This turns the end of a building's life into the beginning of something new. One example: the LeopoldQuartier in Vienna.

Our expertise in timber construction and sustainability is being used to create Austria's largest office building and largest residential building constructed using timber – with thousands of square meters of wooden ceilings, walls, and prefabricated components designed for recyclability.

Because demolition does not begin on the construction site – it begins in the planning stage:

  • Plan with low pollutants
  • Choose detachable details
  • Understand building materials as tomorrow's raw material stores

Under the motto “demolition instead of dismantling,” we accompany projects holistically – from planning to implementation. The best proof: the detailed drawings of our timber construction expert Hans Matzinger, which find their way from paper to the built project.
