About the Project

Houtlab is a sustainable and circular building where collaboration and innovation take center stage. It serves as the home base for Woody Builders and other JAJO subsidiaries, such as PVVT, New Horizon, OnderhoudPlus, and Revolve. More than just a building, Houtlab is a dynamic hub for progress in timber construction and circularity.

By using biobased materials such as timber, Houtlab actively contributes to carbon storage. Trees absorb CO₂ from the atmosphere as they grow and store this carbon in the wood. When used in construction, this carbon remains stored for the long term, helping to reduce the environmental footprint of the built environment.

Houtlab follows a circular design approach, ensuring that materials remain in the loop for as long as possible. The building is modular, with reusable components that allow for easy adaptation, expansion, or repurposing. This prevents waste and extends the lifespan of materials, reinforcing a sustainable future.

Houtlab is an inspiring place where new construction techniques are tested and applied. It brings together knowledge, talent, and entrepreneurship to accelerate the transition toward a more sustainable building industry.
