Reuse of building materials is the current and future answer to several global environmental challenges. Steni Colour Reuse is a façade system designed to be used repeatedly.
Our façade panels have a life expectancy of over 100 years, which makes them a good choice for the environment and sustainability. Steni have taken the step even further by launching Steni Colour Reuse, a set of standardized façade panels that systemize reuse. These are façade panels that can be updated and reused after they are completed in their service in a building. This is sustainability in practice.

Steni Nature are sustainable, long lasting façade panels with surfaces from nature. These have been in Steni's range since the start in 1965 and, like all Steni façade panels, are very durable. They are made to withstand the rigors of nature and weather.
Recycled glass
Most of the surfaces on the Steni Nature panels are made with crushed natural stone, but now Steni has gone even further and launched a façade panel with recycled glass. Not only is it environmentally friendly reuse of glass but it provides a beautiful, sparkling surface by reflective light.
Among the selection of Steni Nature you will find façade panels with a surface made of recycled glass.
Steni prioritises these areas of the UN's sustainability goals.

Waste management
STENI sorts all waste internally in accordance with the Grønt Ansvar (Green Responsibility) scheme we have joined with Veolia Miljø. Grønt Ansvar is a comprehensive programme for documented and systematic waste management.
STENI façade panels are packaged using wood, paper and recyclable plastic. The packaging is adapted so that it can be easily sorted at the construction site. Offcuts / left-over panels can be delivered as general waste for standard waste collection.
We have launched a completely new colour collection, developed in collaboration with Scandinavia's leading experts in colour and architecture. Re:Colour is about safeguarding place identities and good use of colour in urban areas. Test colours on buildings
Steni Vision panels are made of stone composite and can be used both internally and externally with all kinds of buildings.
Steni Nature is an environmentally friendly and robust façade panel of stone composite with gorgeous surfaces of crushed natural stone, olivine and recycled glass.
