How innovation and sustainability are transforming the construction sector: VORM4 in Doe Maar Duurzaam

Discover how VORM4 responds to trends and current events in the construction sector with innovations such as BIM and circular construction.

In the Doe Maar Duurzaam broadcast, we had the opportunity to show how VORM4 is reshaping the construction sector with smart technology and a sustainable approach.

Innovation in construction may sound like a big word, but for us, it's about practical solutions that work for our customers.

Here we dive deeper into the topics we discussed in the broadcast, from circular construction to digital building solutions.

Why sustainability in construction is so important

The construction sector faces enormous challenges. Think of stricter regulations concerning CO₂ reduction and circular construction, but also the growing demand for energy savings. If you do not go along with these developments now, you will soon simply be behind the facts.

At VORM4, we see this as an opportunity. After all, sustainable construction doesn't have to be complicated at all. By using technology smartly, such as BIM and feasibility studies, we make sustainable choices feasible and affordable. That was exactly the core of our message in Doe Maar Duurzaam.

Case studies: how we apply this

In the broadcast, we highlighted a number of innovations. Here are the most important ones:

Digital building solutions for a smarter approach

Many projects lack important information, such as old archival documents or clear technical drawings. With digital building solutions, we bring all that data together in one overview. This prevents errors, saves time and makes it easier to build more sustainably.

A good example is how we apply this to circular construction. By digitally modeling materials and structures, we know exactly what needs to be reused. This makes sustainability in construction a lot easier and more effective.

BIM: working together without surprises

BIM (Building Information Modeling) is the tool for collaborating in the construction sector. It is a digital model in which all project information comes together. Think of technical specifications, construction plans and plans.

With BIM, you can prevent errors and streamline processes. For you, this means lower costs, a shorter construction time and a more sustainable result. As we showed in Doe Maar Duurzaam: BIM is not an extra, but an indispensable link in modern construction.

Tailored solutions for unique challenges

Every project is different, and that requires customization. Whether it involves solar panels on a roof structure or designing a complete energy network, we ensure that the solution fits exactly to the customer's situation.

In the broadcast, for example, we shared our work with Zeewolde Wind Farm. Here, we designed a substation that connects 91 windmills to the power grid. The result? Green energy for a quarter of a million households. That is the power of customization!

Why innovation in construction is important now

We are at a tipping point in the construction sector. Innovations such as BIM and digital building solutions are no longer “nice to have”, but important to stay future-proof. In addition, circular construction is increasingly being made mandatory, both due to regulations and customer questions.

What we're seeing is that companies that are now investing in these technologies are taking an advantage. It's not just about meeting requirements, but also about working more efficiently, saving costs and making an impact on sustainability.

What does this mean for your project?

The topics we discussed in Doe Maar Duurzaam are not only interesting, but also practical. Whether you want to make an existing building more sustainable, are starting a new building, or are looking for ways to make your project circular—at VORM4, we'll help you get started.

We make sure you not only meet today's requirements, but are also ready for tomorrow's challenges.
