Local products for the environmental and energy sustainability of buildings

At the international level, ISO 14001 is a recognized standard for environmental management systems, helping companies improve their environmental performance. Additionally, ISO 21930 provides specific guidelines for the sustainability of construction materials, including criteria for life cycle assessment and environmental impact. European and international regulations on the sustainability of construction materials are essential for promoting eco-friendly building practices and reducing environmental impact. At the European level, the Construction Products Regulation (CPR) establishes essential requirements for the safety and sustainability of materials used in construction. This regulation encourages the use of recycled and low-impact materials, promoting energy efficiency and reducing CO2 emissions. Various entities aim to develop and research Local Products for Sustainable Building, both at the university and corporate levels. This work presents case studies conducted at the University of Cagliari aimed at developing eco-sustainable construction solutions for walls and floors, using local and sustainable materials to create multi-layered composite packages that ensure eco-sustainability and excellent energy and environmental performance for buildings.
