In the early stages of planning the redesign and reconstruction of the Temmler site in Munich, investors were already searching for a waste disposal expert. ELOGplan was commissioned in the middle of 2017 to work on a draft concept for waste disposal and to be included in the planning stages for the three participating architecture firms. Due to the complex and dense building development, the multi-layered use of the site and the diverse range of tenants, the most important task of all was to use the space cleverly to minimise the amount of land used for the recycling centre and to select the most suitable waste disposal logistics plan for the building complex. ELOGplan’s waste disposal plan significantly reduced the originally planned amount of land used and became part of the building application submitted at the end of 2017. “Die Macherei” is an office and commercial quarter with approx. 64,000 square metres gross floor space.

Cooperation with inas
ELOGplan GmbH is cooperating with inas (Institut für angewandte Nachhaltigkeit GmbH [Institute for Applied Sustainability GmbH) in the sustainability project sector. inas is recognised as an associated institute of TH Ingolstadt and was founded in 2017 by Prof. Reinhard Büchl. The objectives of the institute are:

Prof. Reinhard Bücher has been the owner, idea generator and Managing Director of ELOGplan GmbH for more than 30 years. In his transition to the institute, planned over many years and now founded, a great wish has been fulfilled. ELOGplan staff and the entire BÜCHL company group will support these new activities and work together in a sustainable manner as much as possible. For ELOGplan, as a part of the BÜCHL company group, this cooperation is a very good opportunity to provide all interested parties with a wide spectrum of expertise and experience going forward.
Project launch for the American automotive supplier DURA
The German sites of the American automotive supplier DURA AUTOMOTIVE were searching for a partner at the end of 2016, in order to develop recycling documents for the vehicle parts supplied to many European producers, as many vehicle manufacturers require such information for their recycling and sustainability strategy. The VW Group has even issued its own standard for this purpose (VW Standard 91102). On the basis of these standards and guidelines, ELOGplan has created such documents for parts varying in complexity and concluded the project at the end of 2017. The ELOGplan’s calculations are based, not only on detailed information on the recycling capability of various materials, but also on the knowledge of modern and future separation technologies and recycling rates available through these. Last but not least, ELOGplan also analyses the production process on-site in production plants (in this case, in Germany and the Czech Republic) and previous and present waste disposal of scrap parts. For DURA Automotive, there is a high certainty that they will be able to respond to future demand of manufacturers quickly.
