Timber, hemp, straw, mycelium and waste-derived products are no longer experimental concepts — they are being deployed in housing, commercial and public buildings at scale. The question is no longer if they work, but how we implement them effectively, affordably and safely.</p><ul><li>Proven applications in housing and urban development.</li><li>Standardisation, industrialisation and digital workflows that enable cost control and scalability.</li><li>Collaboration models between public and private actors that accelerate adoption.</li><li>Regulatory and insurance barriers — and what needs to change to unlock broader deployment.</li><li>Ensuring durability, safety and long-term performance without compromising sustainability.</li><li>Beyond material substitution, this discussion considers how bio-based construction can contribute to healthier buildings, local supply chains and more resilient communities.</li></ul><p>The aim is practical clarity: how do we move from pilot projects to market-wide transformation — delivering buildings that are not only green in principle, but impactful in measurable outcomes?</p><p>Thank you to the event sponsors that make this weekend happen: <a href="https://molio.dk/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Molio</a>, <a href="https://www.rib-software.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">RIB Software</a>, <a href="https://www.ramboll.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Ramboll</a>, <a href="https://henninglarsen.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Henning Larsson</a>, <a href="https://www.proptechdk.dk/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">PropTech DK</a>, <a href="https://webuilddenmark.dk/english/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">WeBuildDenmark</a>.</p><p>Enjoy!</p><p>This is the ZERO Construct podcast, the podcast dedicated to bringing you insights and expertise from professionals around the world on how we can create a more future proof industry while reducing carbon in the built environment. </p><p><a href="https://linktr.ee/zeroconstruct" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Find out more about ZERO and join our community today.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a><em></em></p><p>If you have any questions or are interesting in sponsoring the podcast then please contact podcasts [at] zeroconstruct.com.</p><p>Artwork created using AI (poorly!)<a href="https://playgroundai.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><br /><
