Digital material passports - Ecoduct

An innovative, UK manufactured, high-performance, non-metallic, pre-insulated air ductwork system delivering optimal airflow efficiency with multiple technical, sustainable, and environmental advantages.

EcoDuct transforms ductwork into a design asset that can be supplied in any shape, size, colour, and effect. It is fully compliant with BREEAM, LEED, WELL standard and NABERS Design for performance.

EcoDuct offers a reduction in the use of high CO₂ products, energy consumption, an increased use of recycled material, a reduction in site wastage and recovery after re-use at the end of the life cycle. It strives to achieve optimal cradle-to-cradle circularity in the HVAC process, a critical component of building services.

What is a digital material passport?

A material passport is a digital document listing all the materials that are included in a product or construction during its life cycle in order to facilitate circularity decisions in supply chain management at the end of the building life.

At Cundall, we want to create a passport to materials/products that will also provide information before its use so designers and contractors are capable of making conscious decisions of products that could affect the embodied carbon and health well-being of a project, facilitating the inclusion of the best low carbon and/ healthy materials that align with their design.
