It’s here! Our whitepaper is now available for free download in both Dutch and English.

“From sustainability ambition to material choice” is a practical guide for designers, contractors, and developers working on projects in the Netherlands who want to understand how to truly embed sustainability in their construction projects.

Created by FRONT Materials, in collaboration with @alba_concepts and BCI Gebouw.

In the guide, you’ll learn:
🟣 Why material choice is more urgent than ever (and what legislation requires from you)
🟣 What MPG, MKI, HNN, and WLC actually mean and how to apply them in practice
🟣 Which tools and databases every architect should know (NMD, BCI Gebouw, Madaster)

Sign up now: FRONT Event – June 4th

The same questions keep coming up in conversations with architects working on projects in the Netherlands: How do I use MPG and MKI early in the design process? How do I translate sustainability ambitions into a proper brief? What do I actually need to know to keep up with changing policy?

On 4 June, we're answering these questions together with Alba Concepts and BCI Gebouw. Join us at our Amsterdam office for a free evening of knowledge, practical cases, and good conversation. Drinks included. FRONT whitepaper to take home.

Please note: the evening will be held in Dutch.
RSVP via our website: front-materials.com/events

Pretty Plastic Panels bring rhythm to the facade. Their geometric shapes and varied surfaces interact with daylight, creating a constantly shifting play of light and shadow across the building envelope.

While 82% of global PVC waste goes to landfill, Pretty Plastic is taking action! They turn PVC waste into durable, fully recyclable cladding panels.

From 2-out-of-1 to 4-out-of-1.
Same brick, more impact.

With WasteBasedSlips, we unlock the full potential of the material by cutting four strips from one WasteBasedBrick, rather than two strips (as in conventional brick slips).

This results in less waste, more value and greater efficiency. But the impact goes further than performance.

By revealing both the ‘punched’ exterior and the ‘sliced’ interior, WasteBasedSlips introduce a new visual language. The inner structure of the brick becomes part of the design, exposing fragments of recycled content and creating a layered, expressive facade.

If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
