Renovating – potential for more energy-efficient building


Many people are attracted to the special charm of old buildings. What many do not suspect is the tremendous potential for a more sustainable environmental balance is lying in wait in old buildings. Low-emission or CO2-neutral heating improves the energy yield significantly. Especially when they are installed in the flooring. Underfloor heating systems manage low supply temperatures and thus help to save energy. The plumbing systems usually have to be fundamentally replaced when refurbishing old buildings, but when done properly lasts a long time. Drinking water and sewage pipelines must be replaced in order to meet modern hygiene standards, but in long run this saves money, protects from leakages and delivers you fresh drinking water. 
 

Products and solutions for more sustainable buildings

Even if the expenditure for a renovation is high, the effort is worthwhile, because existing building materials can continue to be used and be optimally optimised. Waste transport for building rubble is eliminated, which saves energy and avoids noise. Renovated buildings also increase the quality of life and living for many people and enhance entire city quarters in the long term. We offer a number of products and solutions that enable you to renovate your house to consume less and last for many year to come.
