en.Wedoany.com Reported - French precast concrete company Rector has launched a precast concrete floor slab solution called Woodlite, which integrates wood-concrete bio-based blocks. This product aims to meet the requirements of France's new environmental regulation RE2020 for carbon reduction and biogenic carbon storage in buildings, as well as to respond to commitments such as the "Wood-Bio-based Pact" signed by the country's construction industry. Woodlite is suitable for collective housing and public reception areas.

Woodlite continues the Rsoft technology previously developed by Rector and has obtained the RSE Confirmed Level label. Its core combination integrates wood-concrete bio-based blocks with Rsoft reinforced concrete precast slabs, improving the carbon and environmental performance of the floor slab by storing biogenic carbon, while retaining the existing qualities of Rector's precast floor slab system in terms of ease of installation, finishing, joint operations, network integration, and on-site construction rhythm. The product has a biogenic carbon content of 5.53 kgCO/UF, and its related Environmental Data Sheet (FDES) has been certified and is available for consultation in the INIES database.

This product is applicable to all floor types (ground floor, intermediate floors, top floors, and roof terraces), all structural forms, and all seismic zones in mainland France. The Woodlite floor slab consists of a low-carbon concrete precast base slab, bio-based wood-concrete blocks, and an optional concrete compression layer for network integration, providing a low-carbon impact system solution for building projects requiring bio-based products. The product design targets residential and commercial buildings, emphasizing a combination of technicality, performance, and construction efficiency.
