Podeliha is committed to the development of the future of the city, and integrates sustainable solutions into its projects, using for example Hoffmann Green's decarbonized 0% clinker cements. The construction of the Avifaune residence in Avrillé, Maine-et-Loire, is an excellent illustration of this. This project combines innovation and inclusive housing, bringing together able-bodied and disabled people in a shared living environment. Winner of the APF France Handicap call for projects, Podeliha aims to promote the social inclusion of people losing their independence. Part of a mixed-use development of over 80 homes, Avifaune will include 25 adapted rental units, 10 of which have been specially designed for people with reduced mobility or epilepsy.
Since 2021, the partnership with Hoffmann Green Cement illustrates Podeliha's commitment to decarbonizing its building portfolio and reducing the carbon footprint of the construction sector. By adopting its partner's 0% clinker cements, Podeliha is favoring a local, innovative player and contributing to the circular economy, thereby reducing the CO2 emissions generated by its constructions by 4 to 5 times.
The construction of this residence enables Hoffmann Green to contribute to the decarbonization of the new housing market, through a project that represents a strong commitment to social inclusion and diversity.
Julien Blanchard and David Hoffmann, co-founders of Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies, said: "Construction of the Avifaune residence, the result of a strategic partnership between Hoffmann Green and Podeliha since 2021, reflects our commitment to promoting low-carbon solutions in the new housing sector. This project is a strong example of how social housing can be reconciled with high-level environmental performance in construction."
Gonzague Noyelle, Podeliha's Managing Director, added: « The use of 0% clinker cement enables us to considerably reduce the carbon footprint of our constructions, such as the future Avifaune residence. As a company with a mission of general interest, we are delighted to partner with Hoffmann Green Cement, enabling us to implement our commitments to environmental responsibility, local know-how and innovation. »
