Sustainable building in brief

The conomic, ecological and social aspects should be taken into consideration in equal measure in all phases of the life of a building. The basis for avoiding damging effects are determined at the planning stage:

  • Need analysis
  • Saving natural places by means space-saving buildings
  • Minimise consumption in relation to energy and means of production
  • Long term utilisation of parts of buildings and whole buildings
  • Use of re-useable, recycleable and/or re-used, recycled building products
  • Short transportation routes during construction and operation
  • Good decommissioning capabilities
