    We’re proud to announce the development of RECYPLAC™, a groundbreaking innovation from Siniat France, the first standard plasterboard made from 100% recycled gypsum. By using almost entirely circular materials for its other constituents, it delivers the same high performance as standard plasterboard while significantly reducing waste and the need for virgin raw materials: ✅ 100% recycled gypsum – sourced entirely from gypsum recovered after use ✅ Uses nearly only circular material for its other constituents– maximising resource efficiency ✅ Same high performance – meeting industry standards ✅ Patent pending – reinforcing our leadership in recycled gypsum technology ✅ Sustainability for customers – a practical alternative for mainstream construction projects, not just niche applications RECYPLAC™ is set for market launch in France in July 2025, thanks to the dedicated collaboration between our R&D teams in Avignon and Siniat France. This achievement further strengthens our leadership in circular construction and advances our sustainability goals, with some plants surpassing 35% recycled gypsum ratios, applied across all plasterboard products—both standard and technical. Since 2018, we have increased our use of recycled gypsum by 34%. 📢 Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/eVzaAnqV
