Overview
The aim of the circular economy is to reuse raw materials as often as possible without any loss of quality, thereby avoiding waste. This approach requires a paradigm shift in design, as the life cycle of a product must be taken into account from the outset.
Thanks to their flexibility, modularity and simple installation, our partition wall and room-in-room systems can be easily reused even when spatial requirements change. To achieve this, we consider the entire product and material cycle throughout the entire life cycle. For this reason, we had our 2000 and 3400 partition wall systems certified according to Cradle to Cradle® back in 2015.
The circular economy represents a paradigm shift in our economic activity. The transformation of our current linear economic system, consisting of ‘produce – use – dispose’, into a circular system means questioning the status quo and rethinking products and their use.
Key factors here are careful material selection, high-quality workmanship and well-thought-out design – right up to the end of the product's service life and the subsequent sorting and recycling of all components back into the material cycle. This results in secondary materials that ideally consist entirely of recycled components or whose recycled content is continuously increased. For this reason, we have had our 2000 and 3400 partition wall systems certified according to Cradle to Cradle®.
Concular cooperation
Concular is the leading company in the field of circular economy in Germany. The Concular team transforms the real estate and construction industry towards a circular, sustainable way of doing business. In view of the increasing use of Strähle system partitions as re-use elements, we have concluded a cooperation agreement with our circularity partner Concular to jointly promote the topic of circular offices. With Strähle 360Degrees, our products can not only be rebuilt and used for a long time within a building, but also in other projects or cities. This further underscores our commitment to sustainable and circular construction.

A special focus is on sustainability: Instead of new materials, reused building components are used, which reduces waste and conserves resources. Modular partition wall systems allow flexible space design. This concept combines functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability and serves as a model for resource-efficient interior design. Modern office spaces offer both individual workstations and open areas for interaction. Offices of various sizes are arranged along the window front, while central zones serve communication purposes. Glass partitions create an open atmosphere and allow natural light into communal areas.
Reuse advantages
For new customers: We support you right from the planning phase in optimising your wall and room systems for possible reuse options. This consultation has been part of our service for over 40 years – because our systems are designed to be flexible from the ground up.
We recommend suitable solutions in terms of system selection, standard dimensions, surfaces and other technical parameters. We also consider the logistical requirements in the event of conversion and show how suitable element sizes and subdivisions can facilitate conversions. Our goal: to enable you to reuse your systems as effectively as possible in the future – whether within your building or through resale.
For existing customers: We will examine how your existing partition walls can be reused in a meaningful way. Please feel free to contact us. As a first step, we will clarify possible usage scenarios for the elements for potential reuse customers and evaluate both the material quality and the logistical conditions.
We determine whether your elements are suitable for reuse in other projects both through our own pool of interested parties and through our partnership with Concular. On this basis, we will prepare an individual offer for you – tailored to the specific building situation and context.
Sustainability in the system
Excellent adaptability and reusability of the systems thanks to modular designs and simple joining techniques such as the hook-in principle
High-quality and durable materials
Components that are easy to separate for dismantling or returning to material cycles
Safety-approved main materials: glass, aluminium, steel, wood-based materials. Tested in AGBB tests and sourced from certified suppliers.
Individual project support
Do you have Strähle partiton systems in your property and are looking for a solution for their reuse? Then please contact us directly! Together, we will examine whether your Strähle systems can be reused in a sustainable and sensible manner – efficiently, resource-savingly and without complications.
