Join this webinar to hear from TECHNAL on the role of circular aluminium in the evolution of façade refurbishment.

Drawing on TECHNAL’s expertise as part of the Hydro group, the webinar will examine how aluminium systems can be rethought through a circular lens, balancing performance, longevity and environmental impact. Highlighting key considerations when specifying replacement facades, windows and doors within existing buildings, from material provenance and embodied carbon through to compliance and system integration. Participants will gain practical insight into aluminium recycling, material traceability, and the role of low-carbon systems in refurbishment projects.
