LEKO Labs

Business Description Founded in 2017 by Francois Cordier, LEKO Labs’ vision is to accelerate the adoption of sustainable building materials in the built environment. The startup has developed a solution using sustainably-sourced wood-based materials to replace up to 75% of concrete and steel used in a single building, dramatically reducing carbon footprint during construction. In incorporating engineered wood and a fully circular manufacturing process, the system provides not only a sustainable approach to building but also superior insulation properties with thinner walls. This enables up to 10% more floor space for a given building – a game-changer in the construction space.
LEKO Labs’s software platform calculates and optimises thermal, acoustic and static properties of the buildings, resolving moisture and noise problems typically associated with wooden buildings. Further, the robotics-driven approach means that buildings can be manufactured faster, and with greater quality. This of course benefits construction companies and workers.
