For at least 6,000 years, prior to the Industrial Revolution which was around 1760; the Earth’s natural processes operated in a state of #balance that was, in effect, a natural "#NetZero" carbon cycle. During this period, the amount of carbon dioxide entering the atmosphere through natural processes - such as respiration, decomposition, and volcanic activity - was roughly equal to the amount being removed by natural sinks, such as photosynthesis and ocean absorption. Currently, the #Earth is NOT "#NetZero" by nature. How do you reset the Earth to its original settings? The planet is experiencing rapid warming due to human-caused greenhouse gas emissions, which exceed the natural rate of carbon absorption. #NetZero is a GOAL requiring #human action. The #construction industry is a major disruptor of Earth's Net Zero goals, with the built environment (construction and operations) responsible for approximately 37% to 40% of global, energy-related emissions. The industry produces up to 3 billion tonnes of construction and demolition (C&D) waste annually, much of which is not recycled, leading to further methane emissions in landfills. A net-zero energy building is a highly energy-efficient structure by combining passive design (insulation, natural lighting) with active strategies (solar panels, heat pumps), these buildings drastically reduce energy demand and carbon emissions. #Fortune100 and #Fortune500 companies care significantly about #NetZeroBuildings, treating them as a critical component of their overall #CorporateSustainability, #RiskManagement, and #Decarbonization strategies. The global market for exterior wall systems (including curtain walls, cladding, EIFS) is experiencing a CAGR of roughly 7-8%, projected to exceed USD 312 billion by 2032. The shift toward "dry construction" (#drywall) over "wet construction" (brick/plaster) is driving up the square footage of prefabricated wall systems. Unified Intelligence has launched #CIRCATO Systems to claim our own market share in this exciting market. Inspired by nature; engineered for tomorrow, the exterior walls built by CIRCATO insulates the external temperature (heat or cold) from the interior of the building. This reduces the cost of energy in #HVAC by over FIFTY PERCENT. They are 40% lighter than the conventional exterior wall systems thus reducing the load burden on the structural framework. It has a superior fire rating of 90/150 minutes. CIRCATO dry walls can have a very W-I-D-E range surface finish enabling Architects to offer a wide range of finishing and shapes (including curved). The manufacturing technology by which these wall modules are made is #Thermofusion. That makes them extremely sturdy, unbreakable and rugged. The material used is single use plastic waste (#MLP). CIRCATO will consume millions of tonnes of this to produce extremely durable exterior walls to help construct #NetZeroBuildings.
