Together with our partners Schöb AG and Ammann Bau, we were able to demonstrate the entire construction process for the Cancret hemp-lime exterior walls—from timber-frame construction to the production and application of the hemp-lime mixture, culminating in an on-site tour in the Widnau Valley.

The Cancret hemp-lime exterior walls are featured in the Winterthur Innovation Lab. During opening hours, visitors can learn how this innovation works in a real-world building. The fact that Cancret was selected as the technology of choice demonstrates that our solution is considered practical for the sustainable construction of the future.

Discover the new Premium 12.5 mm clay board—the innovative solution for healthy indoor environments and sophisticated architecture. Our clay board sets new standards: at just 12.5 mm thick, it is the thinnest clay building board on the market and offers outstanding technical properties.

A milestone for Cancret Materials. This week, Cancret Materials used the sound insulation laboratory at EMPA (Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology) – a decisive step for all sustainable building materials. Alongside fire protection, sound insulation is one of the most challenging hurdles on the path to fully-fledged, certified building components.
