BADER & AVEMA: Turning Leather into Impact with CALOR


A living proof of CALORs sound and thermal insulation at History Museum in Basel

 

Our subsidiary AVEMA transforms upcycled leather fibres into high-performance solutions that create real value for people and spaces.

A powerful example for innovative materials is CALOR by AVEMA. This sound and thermal insulation material is 100%  ecological.

What is CALOR?

  • A next-generation insulating solution redefining performance and sustainability:
  • Offers exceptional sound and thermal insulation
  • Regulates moisture for a healthier indoor environment
  • Naturally flammable but self-extinguishing – balancing safety with innovation
  • Produced in Europe with no water and minimal energy consumption

Perfect for:

  • Blow-in insulation in new builds and renovations
  • Industrial facilities
  • Acoustic applications

 

Here is a living proof of  CALORs capabillities:

In the new building of the Natural History Museum Basel/State Archives Basel-City, the visitor staircase was fitted with CALOR - delivering noticeable peace and quiet, reduced impact sound and improved room acoustics. The result is a calmer, more pleasant visitor experience.

AVEMA shows how BADER’s material expertise can be reimagined:
From leather waste, to sustainable performance, to architectural impact.
Every project using these solutions moves us further on our Zero Waste Journey - and proves that responsibility and performance go hand in hand.
