Une seconde vie aux matériaux du chantier du pavillon F
AI Article Summary

Cegep de Saint-Jérôme and Tricentris are collaborating on a project to repurpose construction materials from the Pavilion F renovation and expansion. Selective deconstruction allows for the reuse, transformation, and redistribution of materials like wood and metal. This process is embedded in a circular economy approach. Revalued materials will be sold at low cost, creating a local value chain.

What This Means for Canadian Contractors

This project demonstrates how circular economy principles can be integrated into construction projects, potentially influencing permit processes and material choices. For Quebec builders, this means an opportunity to minimize costs by using revalued materials and reducing the carbon footprint of their projects.
