Climate adaptation also starts with the choice of materials

8 September 2026

GreenMatter Ecoraster and GreenMatter Ecoraster Bloxx contribute to climate adaptation!

More intense peak rainfall and longer heatwaves are placing increasing demands on the design of our living environment. The choices we make today partly determine how well our public spaces will be able to cope with extreme weather conditions tomorrow.

The choice of materials also plays an important role in this.

GreenMatter Ecoraster and GreenMatter Ecoraster Bloxx contribute by:

  • Allowing rainwater to infiltrate, reducing pressure on the sewer system and replenishing groundwater;
  • Helping to reduce heat stress through a greener, water-permeable design;
  • Being made from recycled raw materials.

For us, that is exactly where the added value lies.

We process raw materials from worn-out artificial turf fields into new products. In this way, the same material choice contributes not only to climate adaptation, but also to the high-quality reuse of valuable raw materials.

Because sometimes the greatest impact lies not only in what you install, but also in what it is made from.
