Stovner Bad
The project
The innovation project Upcycled Sheet Piling has proven the "proof of concept" for a new circular industry by upcycling maritime metal from decommissioning to environmentally friendly sheet piling. The project is delivered by Nordic Circles for use in Oslo KF's project Stovner Bath. The project has demonstrated how a new circular value chain can be implemented in a construction project in collaboration with a number of key stakeholders; such as the client, contractor, manufacturer, shipyard, consulting engineer, test lab, project managers, architects, and designers. In other words, a bridge has been built between the shipbuilding industry and the real estate industry.
Project goals
The main aim of the project was to test decommissioning and fabrication of upcycled maritime metal and the inclusion of a upcycled building product in an active building site. Sheet piling is a volume product in the construion industry with the potentioal for massive savings in emmisions with the use of upcycled materials
