NO GREENWASHING

WHEN NATURE AND ARCHITECTURE ARE COMBINED, “GREEN” IS NOT A MERE FAÇADE.

A modular timber construction system provides a durable, flexible basic structure and binds CO2, while the entire system separation is geared towards the building’s life cycle. The photovoltaic façade produces a large share of the electricity required, while green areas will promote biodiversity and have a positive impact on the climate. The vegetation will be irrigated by wind power, and the meeting areas will promote social interaction in a microcosm that invigorates the senses.

AS A FOUNDER, IT’S UP TO YOU TO DECIDE HOW UP TO DATE YOUR COMPANY IS.

Sustainability is more important than ever – not only because environmental and social problems are becoming more acute, but also because the pressure on companies to act is increasing. Regulators, employees, customers and investors are demanding verifiable sustainability. Not to respond to this poses a risk. Green Spin® meets all requirements in terms of ecological balance, social justice and economic security. All those involved also put their money where their mouth is.

ONLY A BUILDING THAT IS THREE TIMES BETTER DESERVES BREEAM CERTIFICATION

Green Spin® is aiming for BREEAM certification. BREEAM is a rating system for the sustainability of buildings and real estate that has been used in practice since 1990. The system was developed to reduce the environmental impact of buildings, improve the quality of life of users and increase the value of real estate in the long term.

The aim of BREEAM is to enable a comprehensive assessment of the sustainability of buildings. Various aspects are taken into account, such as energy and water consumption, construction methods and materials, the health and comfort of users and the ecological impact of the building.
