• Sustainability

    For us, sustainability means constructing and operating buildings that are viable for the future, committing ourselves to common values and conserving natural resources – for now and all future generations.

    Taking responsibility, acting sustainably

    We contribute to society through functional, sustainable and aesthetic construction, and we assume a high degree of social responsibility.

     

     

    Certification in accordance with ISO 14001

    Within the scope of our environmental management system, we are continuously and comprehensively analysing and improving our environmental performance and our processes. While doing so, we place a strong emphasis on measurable results. Our commitment to resource efficiency, sustainability and environmental protection has been independently confirmed, as evident by our ISO 14001 certification.

     

    The goal here is to create credibility and transparency, while also helping us discover what we still need to work on.

    The sustainability compass

    The compass groups our eight material ESG topics into focus areas – and does so twice over: at corporate level and at product & project level. It thus guides all of us on our way to more sustainability, including our internal sustainability organisation and, through individual product solutions, also our clients. The compass, which is integrated into our compass app, helps to analyse and define client needs with a view to sustainability requirements during project meetings.

     


    Our sustainability compass’s focus areas are in part based on our materiality analysis, taking account of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the EU taxonomy’s environmental objectives. The objectives set out in our roadmap are based on these focus areas and apply to both the corporate level and the product and project level.

    Sustainability matters to everyone

    Our ultimate goal is to become best in class in this field. That comes with a tremendous responsibility, and we still have a lot to do. But we embrace the challenge. We are constantly striving for improvement, exploring innovative ideas and developing solutions that have a positive impact on both people and the environment.

    Sustainable construction

    How do we accomplish this?

    Systematic construction is an especially resource-efficient building method. It’s cost-effective and functional – over the entire lifetime of the building. After all, sustainability extends beyond just a moment in time.

     

    We see buildings as complex products, think in terms of processes and use a smart construction system. A GOLDBECK building is made to work at all of these level.

     

    • Resource-efficiency thanks to prefabricated, lean system components
    • Utilisation of reusable construction materials and inbuilt ease of dismantling
    • DGNB basic certificate "Gold" for all industrial buildings, business parks and office buildings in the GOLDBECK system
    • Energy-optimised shell, efficient mechanical and electrical equipment, and renewable energies – all from a single source

    Our Blue Buildings

    For us, sustainability goes hand in hand with functionality and cost-effectiveness. We design, build and operate future-oriented buildings with a focus on their entire life cycle. With the help of our GOLDBECK Blue Buildings, we already know from the initial concept phase how sustainable your commercial property will be – even during the use phase. Our Blue Buildings are particularly energy- and resource-efficient and ensure, that your new industrial building or office building meets all the latest sustainability standards right from the start. Convince yourself!

    Sustainable services

    Those who do not make their real estates climate-friendly now, are putting their value at risk in the long term.

     

    As a strong and trustworthy partner, we support our clients along the path to carbon-neutral operations. Our operational experts develop innovative and future-proof service concepts in close coordination with all stakeholders involved with the primary goal of making the life cycle of real estate as long-lasting and at the same time sustainable as possible.
