An advanced system for Carbon Dioxide Capturing is in place, ensuring that CO2 emissions from the manufacturing limestone heating process are absorbed and re-captured in porous stone materials. Once installed, BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool panels also capture CO2 from the surrounding air in a reactive process called carbonation. The limestone in the cement reverts back to its original state when CO2 is collected. Independent tests show that, thanks to its open material structure, BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool is able to carbonate as much as 70% of the CO2 that is emitted during the manufacturing process. Recycling Acoustic Pulp All material waste generated from the manufacturing of Acoustic Pulp is recycled back into the production process and re-used again. All water used is built into a closed circular system and recycled. The only emission from production is a tiny amount of pure and clean water vapour that is emitted as the material dries. Wood Wool emissions BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool BAUX wood fibres are FSC® and PEFCTM certified –– guaranteeing that they can be traced back to responsible forestry operations. The wood is collected from the Swedish forest in the direct surroundings of the factory in order to minimise negative CO2 emissions caused by longer transport distances. The small amount of wood waste that is generated as a result of production is taken care of—80% is used to heat the factory and drying plant. No waste is produced from the timber log. CO2 emissions kg/m2 Raw Materials Wood cement and water. We use locally harvested FSC certified pine and spruce from Swedish forests. We use 100% natural materials with no additives. Our cement provider, Cementa, has been recognised as the world’s most sustainable cement factory.

The raw materials we use are produced in Sweden, in a factory that runs on 100% renewable energy. We use low waste production methods. We have production plants in the USA and Australia to ensure the final parts of the manufacturing process takes place closer to our end customers. Power consumption kg CO2 per m2 Sweden: 4,42 (Green energy: Yes) Australia: 0,28 (Green energy: Yes) USA: 9,12 (Green energy: No) Transport From factories to the end client, including samples and the final product. We aim to produce as few emissions as possible during the transportation of products. We transport products to clients on the ground by truck, and rarely use air transportation. We have an efficient raw materials logistics solution that provides materials to the USA and Australia. kg CO2 e per m2 From factory to end clients: 1,35 Pulp emissions Other emissions Explore more emissions We've traced and measured all emissions from: Materials Manufacturing Transportation Installation & recycling Fairs & stands Office & employees BAUX AB Sankt Eriksgatan 106 113 31 Stockholm Sweden +46 8 21 07 07 info@baux.com www.baux.com Acoustic Products BAUX Acoustic Wood Wool BAUX Wood Wool Tiles BAUX Wood Wool Panels BAUX Acoustic Pulp BAUX Acoustic Pulp Panels BAUX Acoustic Felt Flexfelt system Inspiration Customer case Inspiration library Design resources Toolkit Design FAQ Book of Acoustics How to order Press Order FAQ Sustainability Guiding Principles Materials Manufacturing Transportation Installation & end of life Fairs & stands Office & employees About BAUX Blog Careers Contact us Press FAQ Copyright © 2021 BAUX AB.
