For the first time in Austria, a project has achieved a double certification at the highest Platinum level according to both LEED and ÖGNI. The SWIETELSKY branches Hochbau Wien and Hochbau Ost realized the project with exceptional construction logistics and a single-crane concept.
LEED, one of the most respected certification systems worldwide, evaluates buildings based on their environmentally friendly characteristics. The SWIETELSKY construction management placed special emphasis on
- a controlled waste management: Waste separation was carried out in ten different groups such as paper/cardboard, insulation, glass, and more.
- the use of wood from sustainable forestry with FSC or PEFC certification.
- the use of fairly produced building materials.
The very high requirements for the later indoor air quality were also a focus, which was only possible through the use of high-quality materials (adhesives, primers, etc.). Additionally, low-noise and non-fuel-operated devices contributed to sustainable construction.
