Wincasa is a new partner of Madaster
In the future, Wincasa will facilitate the efficient circular use of materials in a property. With the Madaster material pass, their recycling is made much easier. For this purpose, the real estate service provider has entered into a partnership with Madaster.
Real estate service provider Wincasa has entered into a partnership with Madaster . According to a press release , Wincasa intends to facilitate the efficient use of materials throughout the life cycle of a property. Wincasa uses the Madaster material pass for this. It gives insight into the materials, components, products and quantities that were used to create a building. It also includes information about the quality of the materials, their locations, and their financial and circular value.
“The exact knowledge of the built-in materials is an integral part of the holistic view of a property”, Beatrice Landolt, Head Construction & Facility Management at Wincasa AG, is quoted as saying. “On the basis of this data, we will in future be able to evaluate the circularity of the properties we manage and map this in a corresponding index.”
As stated in the announcement, a detailed material pass for an existing building is being created for the first time in Switzerland in the Müllerstrasse 12 renovation project in Zurich. Wincasa is supporting this Swiss Prime Site Immobilien AG project with its client trust department. In this way, if one property is demolished, materials can be used specifically in another property, says Landolt. “This possibility means a new dimension of circularity in the real estate industry and closes the cycle in Cradle to Cradle construction projects.”
