Sustainable Habitat Cluster- Cooperation network
Habitat Cluster– A network for the Habitat value chain:
Raw materials | materials & products | Construction | Equipments | Urban regeneration
Create synergies for new products, technologies and rehabilitation construction systems, from a
new practical concept of surrounding spaces, inducing an innovative attitude through
sustainability by creating added competitiveness.
The cluster bet on Sustainability as a active driving force for its development. So the name
“Sustainable Habitat” cluster
Value in the national market the development of materials, solutions and technologies for a
sustainable construction, specially in the conservation and regeneration of the build heritage,
that extends also to the new construction in the international markets.
In both markets, the importance of sustainability can build an distinctive element, creating
competitiveness for the cluster members.

In addition to the innovation projects, other approaches to internationalization are a
test opportunity for the Habitat Cluster integrated solutions based on sustainability;
The adaptation to the new context imposed by European directives such as the EPBD
or the new CPER, drive operations for all the value chain guided by sustainability
(such as the induced by the efficient use of resources);
Interesting challenges, in terms of sustainable products and architectural solutions,
can be introduced in the construction of cities in the global markets by members of
this cluster .

Sustainable Habitat Cluster - Strategy 2014-2020
As an example, …, there was in 2014 a project to support the Habitat Cluster initiatives:
“SUSTAINABLE HABITAT CLUSTER INTERNATIONALIZATION”
Involving action lines:
a) Animation of working groups focused on internationalization and business
