The Suru Diari chair is made from Weidmann hardboard (like Masonite), produced with only unbleached wood fibre and water. No adhesive is required - the lignin in the wood binds the cellulose fibres - which means the material has no added formaldehyde (NAF), is plastic-free and is completely biodegradable. This is the raw appearance. For the coloured versions of this product, Suru use a biodegradable milk-based paint, ensuring the product is safe to use and retains its biodegradability.

TRÆ in Aarhus, Denmark, is built in part from reused construction waste. Designed by Lendager Architects for Kilden & Hindby and PFA Ejendomme, in collaboration with MOE Consulting Engineers and Kaj Ove Madsen, Aarhus Municipality and Realdania, it is due to be completed 2024. Reuse and recycling innovations in the facade include the use of decommissioned composite wind turbine blades for solar shielding, aluminium roof plates for the facade, wooden cassettes, wood insulation, low-carbon concrete and insulation from waste textiles. The reused aluminium facade comes from two different renovation projects, where they had been discarded, plus water-damaged panels from a supplier. Standing 78 m high, the structure is steel, concrete and timber. All materials have been thoroughly tested so that they continue to meet the requirements and regulations.
Relevant materials
Aluminium, AlMnCu, 3000 series, 3003 Aluminium, AlMg, 5000 series, 5005 Cement & concrete, Low carbon cement, Green cement Engineered wood, CLT, Panel, Cross laminated timber
