The world’s most sustainable partition wall
FAAY Vianen produces and sells partition walls using flax, an inexhaustible raw material that is renewable, reusable and environmentally friendly (biobased). During cultivation, flax absorbs CO2 and converts it into oxygen. For example, by using flax as a raw material for building materials, CO2 can be captured in a building. As a result, it has a positive effect on the greenhouse gas. If the building, in which ‘bio-based’ materials are processed, is demolished, the materials can be reused (and the CO2 is stored) or they are broken down in nature (and the CO2 is released with a delay of 60, 100 or more years).

Why flax as raw material?
For over 50 years, FAAY Vianen has focused on the principles of the circular economy utilizing locally grown flax to form the biobased core of its partition walls. Flax has a short growth cycle, is renewable and reusable, takes CO2 from the atmosphere and stores it, has a natural ability to regulate temperature and moisture, contains no harmful dust particles and is recyclable. In addition, the flax core is very strong and stable, provides excellent acoustic properties, has good fire resistance and excellent screw-holding properties.

A FAAY PARTITION WALL STORES MORE THAN 580 KG CO2 PER M3

Prefab, flexible, reusable, easily installed and life cycle proof
FAAY makes robust, screw-proof walls with qualities. The solid flax core guarantees a very high degree of sustainability. FAAY’s environmentally friendly prefab walls are a modular system. The panels are, if not glued, dismountable and reusable. The result of reuse is less transport, labour and waste. FAAY is the first wall manufacturer in the Netherlands with a takeback option for the circular (flax) core wall.

100% sustainable
All unfinished FAAY partition walls are ‘green’. They use wood, flax and plaster as a basis: inexhaustible, environmentally friendly biobased materials. The efforts in the field of sustainability have already resulted in many great rewards in the form of various (inter)national recognitions and certificates. Think of ISO 14001/environmental effects and ISO 9001/quality management, KOMO, FSC® and PEFC.
