Discover how Etex — the parent company of URSA — is leading the sustainable transformation of the construction sector, with key results in decarbonisation, circularity and innovation

In 2024, Etex - the global building material manufacturer and pioneer in lightweight construction - took significant steps to position itself for future growth. This is particularly notable across several key dimensions: sustainability, financial performance, customer focus, manufacturing, safety and teammate engagement. These results are highlighted in the company’s latest combined annual report, presenting together its economic, social and environmental footprint, as well as performance.

On the 13-15.05.2024 in Bielsko Biała in Poland was the 6th international tunneling forum. The event was dedicated to the various topics relating to tunnel construction, maintenance and future projects.

This ambitious project involves the use of advanced materials and techniques to ensure the tunnels meet modern standards.

The Tunnel de Cointe in Liège is undergoing a significant renovation, marking the second phase of a comprehensive project aimed at enhancing its safety and functionality.

A true pioneer in the development of lightweight, sustainable products, Etex, through its flagship brand Siniat, has designed a standard plasterboard made from 100% recycled gypsum recovered after use, using almost exclusively circular materials for its other constituents, with the same performance as a conventional plasterboard.

Etex, a global lightweight construction materials manufacturer, has officially opened its 200 million euros expansion of its plasterboard production facility in Bristol, United Kingdom. It is Etex’s largest production investment ever and a commitment to UK manufacturing as the industry grows.
