 Abstract

For a truly sustainable society the Cradle to Cradle guidelines are a useful guide. Different technical and bio materials are integrated in design options. System designs are compared with a Life Cycle Assessment. To test innovative constructions some prototypes have been made and are tested for strength and deformation. Outcome is an extruded kenaf core tube. This fast and harsh growing crop can be manufactured in a constructive material and composted at the end of the use.
