LOUD transforms it's sample traceability with the Digital Passport Leaders 

News: LOUD joins with Global leaaders to solve a specification and building materials waste issue.

In 2022, after receiving a grant, LOUD Design Group presented a pop-up library space constructed made from 90% of sample recovery waste. This display was recognised for its sustainability commitments and was awarded as a runner-up for the best sustainability exhibition on show.

During the investigation into how a building materails library of this kind would be utilised by both the manufacturer and the specifier, a series of pop-up libraries were established throughout the Geelong region in 2022- 2024 to evaluate the necessary functions needed.

Awarded Global reognition awards and category leaders in sustianability in Australia.

The research showed samples in the building industry contribute to the hidden waste stream. However, with ineffective waste management practices to reduce this wastestream, our founder reached to her global network for help. With an innovative solution, and adherence to regulations, the impact of this waste can be mitigated. By promoting recycling, reuse, and sustainable construction practices, the industry can move towards a more environmentally friendly and resource-efficient future.

Throughout 2024 - 2026 LOUD built these Global alliances to determine a way to reduce the gap in Building waste and developed a different solution in helping mitigate risks for the building industry.
