Eco-Construction





The Natural Stone 100%
Sustainable, recyclable, healthy material, its production and implementation require low energy expenditure. It is ideally part of a sustainable development approach and HQE construction projects. (High environmental quality).
Stone is a natural material that offers a varied and abundant resource. It is the first constituent of the earth's crust, which classifies it as an inexhaustible resource.
ROCAMAT products are already present on projects HQE and BREEAM : the EPSILON offices in Villeurbanne, the Ministry of Justice Millennium 3 and 4 in Aubervilliers, the Quebec offices in Orly. The stone knows how to adapt to the RT 2020, our products have found their place on projects of BBC housing as
the Cours Saint Amour in Besançon, the Villa Montretout in Saint Cloud or a real estate complex on rue de la Pompe in Paris; but also on the first positive energy building of the Lyon area:
the Julie Victoire Daubié school group.
Her composition is 100% natural and mineral. It's'assurance of healthy housing, without emission of volatile pollutants guaranteed by the A + classification of our materials. Natural stone does not release any harmful chemical components into the atmosphere, either during its production or during use. Up to 10 times less CO2, our regional presence allows us to limit transport to the place of production / site, a clear environmental advantage for French stones compared to major import materials.
A clean industry
All cutting operations, both in the quarry and in the factory, are carried out using electric machines. No cooking is necessary for the transformation of the stone. The production of natural stone elements requires low energy expenditure, so she is poor in CO2 emissions, unlike other mineral building materials, such as concrete. No chemical additive is necessary for the transformation of the stone, or for its conservation over time, unlike other natural materials, such as wood.
For all our quarries, we are implementing a site redevelopment plan during and at the end of operation. The fulfillment of these commitments is guaranteed by a financial guarantee system controlled by the DREAL (Regional Directorate for the Environment, Planning and Housing).
