What is KIBECO®?
The construction industry is changing - and we are helping to shape this change. KIBECO is the driver for circular building materials at KIBAG and stands for innovative solutions. We develop and promote materials that reduce emissions, conserve resources and make the construction industry fit for the future.
KIBECO is more than just sustainability - we are a platform for innovation. Together with start-ups, research partners and the industry, we put new building material technologies into practice. Our goal? Building in cycles, finding ways to reduce CO₂ and using alternative products.
Calculate how much CO2 you can save or permanently store with your building project!

Innovations that change construction
KIBECO is a platform for innovations that change the construction industry. We offer visionary start-ups and young companies the opportunity to further develop and realize their circular and resource-saving ideas for the construction industry. This allows synergies to be exploited that enable KIBAG to play a more active role in promoting the circular economy. The focus here is on reducing CO2 emissions and on regenerative construction.
Are you a young entrepreneur with an innovative idea for sustainable construction? Would you like to shape the construction of tomorrow together with us? Then get in touch with us.

More than circular economy
Innovative concrete: MIGROX Oulesse and BEGROX Oulesse
At KIBECO, we are making construction more environmentally friendly. Our MIGROX Oulesse and BEGROX Oulesse concretes stand for sustainable alternatives that are ecologically and functionally convincing.
MIGROX Oulesse is a cement-free lean concrete made from 100% recycled materials, in particular mixed demolition waste. This product offers an environmentally friendly alternative for applications such as clean layers, pipeline blocks and encasing concrete.
BEGROX Oulesse is a concrete granulate with the same application possibilities as MIGROX Oulesse. In addition, it is particularly suitable for lean concrete slabs with sealing film.
With MIGROX Oulesse and BEGROX Oulesse, we are demonstrating how the circular economy can succeed in the construction industry. By recycling demolition materials, resources are conserved, the circular economy is promoted and CO2 emissions are reduced by around 70% compared to conventional lean concrete made from cement.

ewz pipe block
In Zurich, a pipe block was constructed using the innovative cement-free lean concrete BEGROX25 Oulesse. The test, which took place from 9 to 12 December 2024, aimed to test the processability, consistence and setting behavior of the cement-free concrete.
The tests were carried out under real conditions and confirm the suitability of the building material for sustainable construction by promoting the reuse of demolition material and avoiding the use of cement.

Pavillon MANAL
The MANAL pavilion, realized together with Oxara, is a pioneering example of sustainable construction and shows the first load-bearing application of KIBECO Cleancrete Oulesse®, a cement-free, low-CO₂ concrete. By combining it with KIBECO Cleancrete Nossim® and compacted clay blocks, the potential of cement-free materials is fully exploited. The MANAL pavilion impressively demonstrates how innovative, environmentally friendly materials can shape the future of construction.

Townhouse Hegibach
A modern residential and commercial building was built at Hegibachstrasse 1 in Zurich. Particular attention was paid to the use of an innovative concrete in accordance with Annex ND, which made it possible to reduce the minimum strength. This made it possible to reduce the environmental impact by 35% without compromising on performance. It was possible to save 370 tons of cement and permanently bind 35 tons of CO₂ in the concrete.
