How do you integrate sustainable and environmentally friendly approaches into your projects?
"The principle of sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. In doing so, we prefer to use sustainable materials. Wood, as a renewable raw material and CO2 store in sustainable forestry, is considered indisputable. However, brick also brings sustainable aspects and contributes significantly to improving the indoor climate through its moisture-regulating function. Each of our projects is unique and requires an individual selection of sustainable materials.
The energy efficiency of a building plays a central role in the construction industry today. Insulation, windows, lighting and heating and cooling systems reduce energy consumption and not only save you money.
Green spaces promote the natural environment and help to improve the microclimate, store CO2 and promote biodiversity. A good example of this is the fifth façade: roofs have long since ceased to serve purely as weather protection. Whether we use them to generate electricity, store water or as green areas, thereby promoting the building system, depends on a holistic view of the building.
Life cycle and quality are critical factors in developing a building that will endure and last. We place great importance on our buildings being a long-term and sustainable solution."
