November 29, 2021 – Inauguration of the Cycle Terre factory in Sevran. On this occasion, Laurent Mogno, President of ECT, stressed the importance of developing all forms of circular economy for excavated soil in the Paris region. This is the reason for ECT’s investment in the Cycle Terre project and in raw earth construction, a vector for a sober, sustainable city.
Building with raw earth has real ecological qualities. Raw earth has a very low carbon footprint, is recyclable, very healthy to live in and acts as a natural hydronymic regulator. It can be used for facing or filling.
The inauguration took place in the presence of all project partners, including :
- Stéphane Blanchet, Mayor of Sevran,
- Jean-Philippe Dugoin-Clément, Vice-President of the Île-de-France Region,
- Clémentine Autain, Member of Parliament for Seine-Saint-Denis,
- Emmanuel Launiau, President of QUARTUS
- Paul-Emmanuel Loiret, President of Cycle Terre.
- Laurent Mogno, President of ECT
The splendid building, built by Quartus and designed by the Joly-Loiret architectural firm, produces renderings and raw-earth blocks in a very urban environment. This production facility recycles 10,000 tonnes of excavated soil every year.
