Joint Venture of Lindner AG and Sokolovska Uhelna a. s.
The Joint Venture of Lindner AG and Sokolovska Uhelna a.s. was legally certified in the end of July 2014.This partnership combines the respective capacities and puts a focus on two important subjects of sustainable building: material recycling and extraction of raw materials.
What is the aim of the Joint Venture of Lindner AG and Sokolovska Uhelna a.s.?
This Joint Venture is intended to calcine the “sluggish” REA plaster into an easier-setting stucco. The stucco is then used to supply the production facilities of Lindner in the German town of Dettelbach where high-quality plaster boards are produced. At the same time for Sokolovska Uhelna a.s. this offers a sustainable way to recycle this waste product of lignite extraction.
Win-Win situation for both partners.
Sokolovska Uhlena a. s. currently deposits this waste product on former mining grounds. However this will not be permitted in the foreseeable future. Due to this, REA plaster will be transformed into stucco, which can be setted. This poses a sustainable material recycling and and solves the problem before it begins.
The result.
The result is an ecological and economical long-term solution for recycling this material and an interesting opportunity to influence the quality of the gained resource.
