We contribute to regenerative design

The future depends on our actions here and now. By thinking of regenerative design in building practices and the materials used, we strive to contribute to more sustainable solutions.

 

At DAMPA we continuously work on improving the sustainability of our products and solutions. Steel and aluminium are heavy raw materials to extract, but when focusing on recycling, the materials can be beneficial to our planet. Once the metal is extracted, it can, with relatively few resources, be recycled repeatedly without leaving the circular cycle.

 

At the same time, our products have a long service life. It favours the environment by reducing resource consumption and thus the emission of CO2 and greenhouse gases.

 

In our work with sustainability, we thus work with a “Reduce-Reuse-Recycle”-approach.

Reduce
We continuously optimize and develop our solutions and production processes to reduce material consumption and minimize waste.
Reuse
Due to the robustness and long lifespan of the material, our solutions can be recycled at the end of their original use and easily adapted to new purposes.
Recycle
All excess material from our factory is sorted and recycled. Likewise, all our solutions can be recycled after use.

DAMPA’s product lifecycle

  1. Materials
    We use Northern European raw material suppliers who meet the highest environmental standards. A large part of the raw materials we use for production is recycled material.

  2. Production
    Our production is located in Denmark. The varnish used for our ceilings is VOC-free. All internal metal waste is collected and recycled.

  3. Transportation
    We have relatively short transport between suppliers and our production. Furthermore, we are continuously working on our packaging procedure to ensure that we use as little material as possible.

  4. In use
    Our ceilings contribute to a good indoor climate on several parameters: sound, aesthetics, light, temperature and ventilation. Our ceilings are produced in metal and therefore have an extremely long life.

  5. Re-usability
    Our ceilings can be reused as they can be dismantled and set up in a new location. In addition, our ceilings can be recycled and once again form part of the circular cycle.

Acoustic solutions in climate-friendly aluminium

DAMPA focus on sustainable initiatives, which, among other things, involves a completely new aluminium that has a 69% lower CO2 emission.

 

“We constantly focus on improving our work to minimize our carbon footprint. One of the solutions we have recently introduced is our “greener” aluminium. If you compare our current aluminium with, for example, aluminium from the Far East, our material from European suppliers derives 57% less CO2 per kg.” Mogens Kjærgaard, Head of R&D and Sustainability at DAMPA explains and adds:

 

“Now we can also offer a solution based on “Post Consumer Aluminium” which is an even greener solution. By using aluminium which consists of 75% recycled material, the CO2 footprint is further lowered by 69%. We look forward to enlarging our production with green aluminium, and thus deliver even greener solutions for the Danish construction industry.“

Fossil-Free steel in Sight

When we produce solutions in steel it is often produced in material from SSAB.


SSAB is currently working towards their goal of a fossil free steel production by 2030:


“The full scale production of fossil free steel is expected to be up and running in 2030. Meanwhile DAMPA will gladly participate in test and pilot projects together with SSAB towards the zero emission acoustic products made of steel. And this is not just a crazy dream – I’ve had the product in my hand.” CEO, Michael  Nykjær shares.


We follow the development closely and are excited to see what the future holds for durable fossil free steel solutions.

Sustainable Maritime Declaration

We are pleased to support the Sustainable Maritime Interiors initiative.

 

This collective effort, uniting stakeholders from the maritime interiors sector, is devoted to enhancing the life cycle of passenger ship interiors.

 

Our firm belief in the importance of actively engaging in this initiative reflects our commitment to contributing meaningfully to the quest for a more sustainable future in the maritime sector.

Download our EPD's

As a climate-conscious partner, DAMPA can also contribute to environmentally certified projects, as all our ceilings in steel and aluminium has environmental product declarations (EPDs).

 

The EPD documents the product’s environmental performance properties. The environmental properties are based on the total emissions and resource consumption, including CO2, energy, water and waste generation, calculated over the product’s life cycle.

We use power from wind turbines

As part of our efforts we have chosen to only use “green power”. Therefore, all of our facilities are powered solely by power from wind turbines.

This means that our production and administration only use power from wind turbines.
