RigiCore®: Redefining Sustainable High-Performance Materials for the Construction Industry

As the building and construction sector seeks innovative solutions to meet increasing demands for sustainability and performance, RigiCore® emerges as a groundbreaking material. Engineered with up to 40% recycled carbon, this 100% recycled high-performance material delivers exceptional strength, stiffness, and environmental benefits.

Why RigiCore is a Game-Changer for Construction Professionals

Elevating Sustainability Standards

RigiCore is designed with sustainability in mind, utilizing post-consumer and post-industrial waste to lower the environmental impact. For architects, engineers, and builders aiming to meet stringent sustainability goals, RigiCore offers a reliable material without compromising quality.

Superior Strength and Stiffness

RigiCore delivers mechanical properties comparable to traditional materials like aluminum, with the added advantage of a reduced carbon footprint. Whether designing load-bearing structures or durable components, its high strength and stiffness make it an ideal choice for applications requiring performance and longevity.

Streamlined Manufacturing Efficiency

Unlike traditional materials requiring multiple post-production processes—such as cutting, stamping, and surface treatments—RigiCore can be extruded using inline processes. This innovation not only simplifies manufacturing but also reduces lead times, labour costs and carbon emissions associated with multi-step production. For professionals working to tight schedules and budgets, this is a significant competitive advantage.

Applications in Modern Construction

From structural supports to lightweight design features, RigiCore® has the potential to revolutionise how materials are used in construction. Its versatility allows for integration into designs where strength, weight reduction, and sustainability are paramount.

Building a Greener Future

For professionals in the building and construction industry, RigiCore® offers a path to meet today’s challenges while preparing for a more sustainable future. By choosing this innovative material, architects, carpenters, and engineers can lead the way in creating environmentally responsible structures that deliver high performance and long-term value.

RigiCore will be launched at BAU25, which takes place in Munich from 13 to 17 January. Primo will present the new profile solution together with a wide range of plastic profiles and gaskets for the construction industry.
