Summary/Abstract: The qualitative features of end user construction products have increasingly fostered insulation product innovations. Moreover, issues such as rapid overpopulation, the negative impacts of fast climate change, etc., have helped develop innovative concepts such as the circular economy and green transformation and have raised awareness about the importance of their wide-spread implementation in construction. This paper aims to explore innovative construction elements with enhanced features whose manufacturing may benefit society by increasing economic and social efficiency and effectiveness. This analysis will be conducted through the perspective of the chain: innovation – circular economy – green transformation in construction.
