About Troldtekt’s certification

Troldtekt is Cradle to Cradle-certified in the gold category.

The certification covers the full product portfolio of Troldtekt cement-bonded wood wool panels in natural wood, natural grey and painted in the standard colours white 101, grey 202, charcoal grey 208 and black 207. The certification also covers the non-combustible Troldtekt A2 panels, Troldtekt agro panels, and Troldtekt based on FUTURECEM.

Advancement thanks to new paint recipes

From March 2022, Troldtekt’s entire line of cement-bonded wood wool products has advanced from Silver to Gold certification. The new Gold certification has been achieved after switching to new paint recipes in production. Based on a newer and more sustainable paint preservation technology, Troldtekt has obtained Platinum certification for material health, which is one of the five Cradle to Cradle certification categories.

In connection with the transition period, during which the new C2C Product Standard, Version 4.0 is being introduced, Troldtekt has decided to be certified in three of the most important categories according to the new and stricter version. The three categories are: ‘Material Health’, ‘Clean Air & Climate Protection’ and ‘Water & Soil Stewardship’. The new standard sets out significantly stricter requirements within all five sustainability categories. Instead of sticking with the old version of the standard for as long as possible, Troldtekt has decided to take the first big steps with the three above-mentioned categories. Between now and our next re-certification in 2025, we will be working to meet all the many new requirements in the remaining categories.
