A flagship project for the region

This project is the first by Max Bögl to be realized entirely with the Bögl environmental concrete developed by the Max Bögl Group. It thus sets a new standard for sustainable construction. "We are proud to be able to implement such a flagship project in the field of sustainable concretes together with the organic beer specialist Riedenburger. With our core idea of ecological economy, we are demonstrating that environmentally friendly construction coupled with economic success go hand in hand," says CEO Stefan Bögl.

Focus on sustainability

For the Riedenburger Brauhaus, which was the first brewery in Bavaria to convert its operations completely to organic 30 years ago, environmental protection is also a top priority for the new building. "We are delighted to have found a partner in Max Bögl who shares our values and will help us to continue to realize our vision of sustainable beer production," says brewery boss Maximilian Krieger. "The use of environmentally friendly building materials is an indispensable step for us to fulfil our ecological responsibility and further minimize our footprint."

Bögl environmental concrete: more than just CO2 reduction

With Umweltbeton Bögl, the cement content is reduced by up to 70 % through the use of substitute materials. This is highly sustainable, as cement production is one of the most CO2-intensive industries in the world. In addition, the international construction company attaches great importance to saving resources through maximum material, design and production efficiency as well as particularly low-noise and low-vibration processing of the environmental concrete in its own precast plants. Overall, the supporting structure and floor slab in this project reduce CO2 emissions by around 45% compared to conventional concretes.

Milestones at a glance

The ground-breaking ceremony will take place in August 2024 Installation of the brewing technology is planned for the turn of the year 2024/2025 so that the first brew can be produced at the beginning of 2025. Beer garden operations will resume at the start of the season in spring, followed by the opening of the new indoor restaurant.

The design of this extensive construction project was based on a pre-check platinum standard carried out by Max Bögl in accordance with the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB). The Riedenburger Brauhaus and Max Bögl followed this standard, underlining their efforts to meet the highest sustainability criteria in the construction process. The combination of traditional brewing skills and state-of-the-art construction technology promises not only an outstanding result for consumers, but also a significant contribution to environmental and climate protection.
