What we offer

Consulting for the approval of different building materials

With our broad expertise in the construction industry, we can offer advice on all common material groups. In addition, we regularly keep abreast of the latest developments in the building materials industry and are happy to advise you on new developments as well.
Smart technologies

“Advancing digitization is impacting all areas of life. Cities and municipalities must and want to face up to the digital transformation and take advantage of the opportunities it offers.” This is what the German Ministry of the Interior writes on its website. The buildings of the future will communicate with each other and thus function as one efficient unit. This requires the integration of new, smart IT solutions in new buildings as well as existing structures.
Approval Consulting supports you with the approval of these smart technologies in Germany.
We offer full-service consulting of innovative building materials: Starting with the approval of solutions with 3D printing technology, IOT solutions for buildings, modernization of old buildings up to smart cities and intelligent air conditioning systems.

Concrete

The most commonly used building material is concrete. It is made by mixing cement with gravel or sand, other additives and water. The properties can be strongly influenced by the mixing ratio. It is castable and therefore has a wide range of applications. Concrete is one of the most important building materials in the German construction industry. Therefore, the further development of concrete in its composition and in combination with other building materials is extremely relevant for the future.
Approval Consulting supports you in the approval process of concrete. We advise and help you with the approval and acceptance of concrete in Germany.
We are familiar with the approval of concrete. Starting with flowing concrete, shotcrete to various concrete elements and more.

Plastics

Plastics are found in almost all branches of industry. They are also used in construction. Synthetic building materials offer a wide range of applications. Basically, plastics are divided into three main types: Thermoplastics, Thermosets and Elastomers. The sustainable further development of these plastics is relevant for the future of the construction industry.
Approval Consulting supports you in this further development of new building materials and advises you on the approval of plastics in Germany.
We will help you with the process for building material acceptance. We are familiar with the approval of insulation, cables, window frames, acrylics, waterproofing, flooring, sandwich panels or pipes and more. Feel free to contact us.

Masonry

Masonry is used in various functions. Especially in smaller buildings, the load-bearing walls are made of masonry. In addition, the exterior facade is often visually enhanced by clinker.
Approval Consulting supports you in the approval of new masonry and advises you in the approval process of concrete blocks, hollow blocks, clay bricks, sand-lime bricks, perforated bricks or alluvial blocks.

Stairs

Stairs can be made of different materials. However, there are several standards that precisely regulate the design. For example, the step height must be between 140 and 190 mm. Different building materials can be used for the construction of a staircase.
Approval Consulting supports you with the approval of new building materials for stairs and staircases in Germany.

Fiber reinforced products

Many products can be improved by incorporating fiber products. New construction materials and compositions, such as carbon, synthetic, metal or natural fibers, support this optimization.
Approval Consulting supports you in the approval of these new fiber-reinforced products.
We offer full support and advice of fiber-reinforced building materials.

Power generation

More and more buildings today are equipped with photovoltaic elements or other forms of clean energy production. Particularly in the case of larger buildings, there will be an increased search in the future for ways to make ecological energy usable through innovative construction solutions.
New building materials for energy generation are relevant for the future. Approval Consulting supports you in the approval of these building materials.
We offer full service for the approval of these energy-efficient building materials. Starting with the approval of building materials for photovoltaics, solar thermal and PV facades to the approval and consulting of building materials for heat pumps and wind turbines.

Facades

Facades form the outer, visible layer of buildings. They serve to separate the interior from the outside influences. In addition, they give a building its characteristic appearance. In today’s age, the efficient and sustainable design of facades is becoming increasingly important. The building materials in the façade and the façade sealants can make a decisive contribution to energy efficiency and even contribute to the supply of electricity. Driving forward the further development of facade waterproofing and developing new building materials for this purpose is relevant for the future of the construction industry.
Approval Consulting supports you in the approval of building materials for facades. We advise you in the entire approval process of facade waterproofing and other facade coverings.
We are familiar with the process of building material approval and support you in the approval of element facades, double facades, membrane facades up to green facades and others. Feel free to contact us.

Wood and wood fiber products

Wooden beams can be used in load-bearing structures. They achieve very good load-bearing capacities with a low dead weight at the same time. In addition, wooden panels are also used as exterior cladding.
Compared to wooden beams and boards, wood fiber materials have the advantage of homogeneity. The composition between wood fibers and binders makes it easy to set the desired properties.

In Vienna, Austria, in 2021, a 24-story skyscraper was built using 75% wood. Properly sized, wood provides better protection against fire than equivalent steel beams. It is also a renewable raw material. Therefore, the sustainable further development of wood fiber products is relevant for the future of the construction industry.
Approval Consulting supports you in this further development of new wood fiber products and advises you on the approval process.

Metals and composites

Metals, their alloys as well as composite materials are frequently used in load-bearing structures. They offer high flexibility in terms of properties and processing options. Metals are an important part of the construction industry and will continue to be increasingly important as the construction industry develops.
Approval Consulting supports you in this further development of new building materials and advises you on the approval of metals and composites in Germany.
We will help you with the process of acceptance of building materials. We are familiar with the approval of iron, aluminum, bronze, stainless steel, brass or surface treatments. Feel free to contact us.

Insulation

The requirements for insulation materials have been continuously raised in recent years. Nowadays, solid insulation is mandatory for any construction project at home and abroad. When choosing the right insulation material, the U-value and fire protection class are crucial.
Approval Consulting supports you with the approval of new insulation materials and insulation building materials in Germany.
We are familiar with the process of building material approval and can support you in the approval of, for example, stone/glass wool, renewable insulation materials, solid wood structures, vacuumed insulation panels, EPS, EPX, PU, ETICS, two-layer masonry or sand-lime bricks. Feel free to contact us.

Building waterproofing

Buildings usually need to be sealed against external influences such as rain and cold. Defective seals can very quickly cause damage to the building or heat exchange with the environment. The demands and external circumstances of the environment are becoming increasingly challenging and changeable. Thus, the construction industry must also evolve in building waterproofing.
Approval Consulting supports you in this further development of new building materials and advises you on the approval of building materials for waterproofing buildings
We will help you with the process for building material acceptance. We know about approving acrylic, polyurethane, tar, air-permeable materials and more. Feel free to contact us.
