Modular Circular Partition System
R&D Project Manager at The Catalonia Institute of Construction Technology

About
The solution integrates circular materials, digital traceability, and AI-based configuration tools to deliver flexible, sustainable, and regulation-ready partitioning systems for offices, housing, and public buildings.
Key features and added value:
· Patented system “the wall without construction”: modular, demountable and reusable wooden partitions replacing traditional fixed walls.
· Dry-assembled, tool-free installation: enables fast assembly/disassembly without drilling or permanent alterations.
· Circular business model: promotes reuse, resale and reconfiguration of components, reducing construction waste and embodied carbon by up to 20%.
· Enhanced performance: integration of recycled materials for improved thermal and acoustic insulation, compliance with seismic and structural requirements.
· Environmental impact: replacement of high-carbon materials with engineered wood and bio-based solutions.
The company has the technical capacity to expand the current product and adapt it to applications in exterior ventilated facades. This would result in a removable and reusable facade, following the same principle applied in interior spaces, which would allow for the complete renovation of the building while taking advantage of its existing structure.
Looking for partners in Horizon Europe projects to collaborate and apply the system in areas such as circular construction and material reuse, smart building integration, regulatory innovation and standarization, industrial scalability and market uptake, etc.
