Prenova is sustainable,
Takes care of our world.

 

 

During 40 years Ricardo Levinton, a Argentine architect, studied structural systems found in nature with a particular interest in the structure and composition of bones and skeletons which contain air in their interior.

 

After several years of research, Ricardo Levinton was able to reproduce this systems and managed to apply them in contemporary construction methods.

 

With this idea PRENOVA was created, on the basis of technology and innovation applied to architecture, designing and building lightweight and sustainable structures without beams, Subsecuently, architect Luciana Levinton and industrial designer Carolina Levinton joined PRENOVA.

 

 

The success of this invention became evident when architects, engineers and companies from all over the world applied the system in their projects with great eficciency.

 

At the construction site, instead of raising tons of material, we propose a global system which is casted in one time.

 

. Efficient use of resources
. Savings in iron, steel and concrete
. Lower CO² emissions
. Large area spans without beams and ample cantilevering
. Lightweight construction
. Dispenses with subfloors and ceilings
. Being a fast system, reduces in half the time of construction
. Flexible use
. Greater seismic resistance
. Excellent thermal and acoustic insulation
. Reduces construction costs in between 10 and 15 %.
. Aproved in Argentina by the Housing Secretariat

. Technical Aptitude Certicate (Certificado de Aptitud Tecnica)
. Fullfills CIRSOC requirements.
. It is calculated as a solid slab without beams.

 

 

SUSTAINABILITY:

 

.30 % lower concrete consumption.

 

.20 % lower steel consumption.
A PRENOVA building weights 65 % of a traditional building, and therefore improves it´s seismic resistance.

 

.Reduces CO2 emissions.

For every 10 000 m built , 1000 m³ of concrete are saved, which means that 220 tons of CO2 emissions are reduced from our atmosphere.

.Spheres and discs are made out of recycled material.

This material is made out of waste that pollutes our environment. It is recycled to produce the spheres and discs which are then left encased in the concrete slab.
