B&B Hotel Tres Cantos
Grupo Casais is introducing an environmentally friendly construction approach to Spain, capable of reducing carbon footprint by over 60%. This achievement is made possible through the utilization of engineered timber, using only one-third of the concrete typically employed in traditional buildings.
Tres Cantos, in Madrid, is the first city in Spain to welcome an industrialized hybrid building made of timber and concrete. The project for the construction of the new B&B hotel unit is part of the Sunny Casais partnership and will mark the region with a new generation of sustainable buildings, already implemented in Guimarães, Portugal.
The hybrid construction, in partnership with ACR, is based on the CREE system, an industrialized hybrid system that can be quickly implemented on-site. It combines the use of timber and concrete at a structural level with prefabricated modular facades, resulting in a significant reduction in carbon footprint, construction waste, on-site noise pollution, as well as delivery times. With a mindset rooted in “Design for Change,” Casias brought a set of solutions designed for a more sustainable industrial construction that emphasizes the balance between productivity, people, and the planet.
