Implementation Stories

ReWood by Burnt Wood
Implemented by City of Horsens in Horsens (Denmark) in 2020

A municipal recycling station of the City of Horsens in Denmark sold two tons of wood waste to the Solution’s owner BurntWood in December 2020. Once the wood waste was transformed into 137 panels of 13 to 14 kg, they were sold back to them to use on the facade of the recycling station.

Result

2 tons of wood being upcycled instead of using new wood allows nearly 3 tons of co2 to be stored
