Thor Duct® is a Lindab Group company and adopts all characteristics and core values that permeates throughout the Group, such as sustainability.
Buildings account for 40% of all energy consumption. Together with our customers, we can reduce the environmental impact by offering leading energy-efficient products and systems with a high degree of recycling.
Having the most energy-efficient solutions on the market is not only a competitive advantage, it is also necessary for the global climate. Energy-efficient solutions also reduce customers' environmental impact and operating costs.
It is important for us to offer products that are safe and easy to work with. We should also offer services and solutions to extend the products' life span and optimise their usage. A long-term goal for Lindab and Thor Duct® is to offer complete services for the entire product life cycle.
Lindab and Thor Duct® will:
✓ lower customers’ environmental impact through our products.
✓
offer the most recognised and preferred products for sustainability.
Digital technology can be used to optimise products and systems. With smart and connected products, data can be used to support better decision-making on energy consumption and resource allocation.
By offering connected products, maintenance and configuration can take place remotely, which increases efficiency and reduces energy usage.
Customers can optimise the design of their construction projects with the help of smart software. It provides a better indoor climate while giving the customer a more efficient planning process.
Lindab and Thor Duct® will:
✓ offer support for calculations so that different solutions can be compared.
✓ offer digital tools so that the customer can choose the most energy-efficient design
and system.
✓ offer connected products to be able to optimise the indoor climate and reduce
energy consumption.
✓ develop smart products with the aim of increasing product life and offering better
services.
The construction sector has great potential to minimise waste and improve circular flows through more efficient use of resources. Products and services must be designed to have a long service life, be reusable and recyclable.
The entire life cycle will be evaluated when choosing product design and materials. Environmental product declarations (EPD) are created so that it is clear how the products affect the environment.
To succeed with a circular economy, collaboration must take place throughout the customer and supply chain.
Lindab and Thor Duct® will:
✓ use sustainable materials in our products.
✓ design our products for reuse or recycling, in order to minimise their impact on the
environment during their life cycle.
Thor Duct® has been tested to the latest EN standards and as required by law, provides CE marking on products where a harmonised standard exists.
Whilst Thor Duct® makes every effort to reflect the industry wide understanding of fire resisting duct standards, we do not suggest replacing a thorough research of CEN documents with our Blog posts. We make every effort to be accurate and true, and, as the passive fire protection industry experience and knowledge grows, we may update our guidance to reflect this. The design, selection, and supervision of fire strategies must always be managed by qualified Fire Engineers.
