The popularity of green buildings continues to grow, driven by increasingly stringent environmental requirements and widespread awareness of climate issues. By 2025, innovations in interior cladding will play a key role in the transition to more sustainable construction. What new materials and technologies will revolutionize the sector? Here's how.
The boom in coatings based on bio-sourced materials
Biobased materials, derived from renewable resources, are at the heart of new trends in interior cladding.
- Linseed-based plasters: offer insulating properties and a low carbon footprint.
- Lime plasters: antibacterial, breathable and moisture-regulating.
- Hemp siding: resistant and excellent for thermal regulation.
- Recycled wood panels: made from sawmill waste for a zero-waste approach.
Pollution-reducing paints and coatings
Innovations in interior paints and coatings aim to improve air quality by capturing pollutants in the home.
- VOC-free mineral paints: an aesthetic finish that guarantees healthy indoor air.
- Formaldehyde-absorbing coatings: neutralize volatile pollutants.
- Photocatalytic coatings: activated by light to eliminate pollutant particles.
Moisture-regulating and thermal coatings
Optimizing indoor comfort requires coatings that can effectively manage humidity and temperature.
- Clay-based plasters: naturally regulate ambient humidity.
- Plasters enriched with thermal microcapsules: store and release heat according to temperature variations.
- Intelligent tiles: store heat during the day and release it at night.
Innovations in modular and aesthetic coverings
Designers and architects are looking for solutions that combine aesthetics and modularity to meet the changing needs of living spaces.
- Adaptive wall coverings: change color or texture according to temperature and humidity.
- 3D textured plasters: bring relief and personalization to interiors.
- Natural translucent materials: play with light to create unique visual effects.
The impact of environmental regulations and standards
The transition to eco-friendly coatings is supported by increasingly stringent regulations:
- RE2025: imposes stricter requirements in terms of carbon footprint and energy performance.
- HQE, BREEAM and LEED labels: encourage the use of environmentally-friendly materials.
- Tax incentives: encourage the use of sustainable materials in construction and renovation.
By 2025, green buildings will benefit from major innovations in interior cladding, combining energy performance, aesthetics and respect for the environment. Advances in bio-sourced materials, depolluting paints and intelligent coatings will open up new horizons for architects and interior designers keen to design sustainable, comfortable spaces.
