Help us create a future where end-life materials are reused and respected as resources

We are thrilled to introduce TIMELESS, an exciting European research project funded by the Research Fund for Coal and Steel! We’re shaping a future where spaces are sustainable, structures are resilient, and design embraces reuse to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world.

Together, we can transform the construction market, building a future where design for reuse is the basis of sustainable innovation.

Join our growing community.

REVERSIBLE, RESILIENT, REUSABLE

The TIMELESS Initiative

The mission of TIMELESS is to reshape the future of constructions by developing sustainable, adaptable, and multi-hazard resilient structural systems for steel buildings. The project focuses on innovative solutions that are demountable, reusable, and designed to perform under extreme natural or man-made events. By integrating advanced materials such as High Strength Steel and Shape Memory Alloys, along with smart sensors for real-time monitoring, TIMELESS enhances structural performance, durability, and safety.

Our Mission

The TIMELESS consortium brings together academic institutions, industrial companies, construction firms, engineering consultancies, and innovative start-ups from across Europe.
This diverse team combines expertise in structural engineering, steel technologies, sustainable construction, and digital innovation.
Research partners offer advanced knowledge and testing facilities, while industrial and construction actors ensure practical applicability.
Start-ups contribute agile, forward-looking solutions, particularly in materials and monitoring systems.

Our Team


The consortium promotes collaboration, inclusivity, and a full value chain approach, from research to market.

The project also addresses the urgent need for circular construction by promoting designs that promote Design for Disassembly principles and extend the lifecycle of buildings. TIMELESS supports the goals of the European Green Deal for sustainable steel innovation, contributing to lower emissions and smarter material use. TIMELESS bridges research and application to deliver real-world impact. The mission is to set a new standard in construction, where resilience, sustainability, and innovation go hand in hand.
