Choose acoustic panels with a reduced carbon footprint
The cement in Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool is responsible for the strength, durability and fireproofing properties of the acoustic panels. Now you can choose Troldtekt based on the carbon-reduced cement type FUTURECEM™ while maintaining all of the well-known benefits.
Cement with a reduced footprint
Our cement supplier, Aalborg Portland, has developed the less climate-impacting cement type FUTURECEM.
FUTURECEM exploits the synergies between calcined clay and limestone filler. In this way, much of the burnt clinker in the cement can be replaced. The result is cement with an approximately 40 per cent lower carbon footprint than white cement.
Clinker production in particular takes place at very high temperatures and accounts for more than half of the carbon footprint of traditional cement. It is therefore groundbreaking that Aalborg Portland has found a method for replacing a large part of the cement clinker content and maintain a strength in the cement on par with traditional cement.
Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM have a carbon footprint over their entire life cycle that is 40 per cent lower than that of Troldtekt based on white cement.
Choose a colour for your design
Troldtekt based on FUTURECEM is suitable as a base panel for painting with both light and dark colours. However, if you choose white 101 (FUTURECEM), you will find that the white-painted panel has a slightly darker colour tone than if you choose white 101 on a base panel in light natural wood based on traditional white cement.

For building projects, it is also possible to choose natural grey (FUTURECEM). However, please note that these unpainted panels may vary in colour – both across the individual panel and from panel to panel.

EPDs ensure complete transparency
Consultants and clients can now download environmental product declarations (EPDs) for Troldtekt acoustic panels based on FUTURECEM. The life cycle analyses, which form the basis for the EPDs, document the total carbon footprint.
