Biobased building: The future of the construction sector

The ‘Nationale Aanpak Biobased Bouwen’, presented by the central government last year, states that at least 30% of building materials in 30% of new construction should be ‘biobased’ by 2030. This approach focuses on reducing nitrogen and CO2 emissions, while at the same time allowing livestock farming to switch to arable farming. The Tegenlicht episode examines how biobased construction is being applied in practice, with a focus on the sustainable solutions that farmers and companies are developing.

One of the key innovations in this field is the cultivation and use of bamboo as a building material. BambooLogic, a pioneer of bamboo cultivation in Europe, shows how bamboo not only provides a sustainable solution, but also creates economic benefits for farmers.

Bamboo: A sustainable solution for farmers and construction

At BambooLogic, we believe in the power of bamboo as a sustainable crop. Bamboo grows extremely fast and can be harvested in just three to five years. This not only makes it a renewable resource, but it also offers benefits in terms of CO2 uptake, soil improvement and biodiversity. The potential of bamboo is huge: from building materials and textiles to food products and bioenergy. BambooLogic guides farmers in Europe step by step in setting up their bamboo cultivation projects, from soil preparation to harvesting and sales.

The Tegenlicht episode takes a closer look at how bio-based building materials, including bamboo, contribute to making the construction sector more sustainable. Bamboo can play a role in the production of biobased building materials such as bamboo acoustic panels, bamboo boards and bamboo cladding, which act as CO2 stores. These construction stored carbon credits offer an innovative way to reduce the carbon footprint of buildings, and BambooLogic is working with certification organisations such as ONCRA to make these credits reliable and market-worthy.

BambooLogic and the future of bio-based building

With projects across Europe, BambooLogic demonstrates that bamboo farming is a smart choice for farmers. It offers numerous benefits, including lower maintenance costs, improved soil quality and the ability to earn carbon removal certificates, which can generate additional income for farmers. BambooLogic's vision aligns perfectly with the goals of bio-based building: a sustainable future where agriculture and construction come together to strengthen both the environment and the economy.
