Building product management

Choosing building products with care improves the quality of indoor air, scores points in building evaluations and reduces the use of pollutants. There are lots of details to considered – a structured process makes everyone's work easier. Through the building product management system, we provide assistance in the selection of healthy and environmentally compatible building materials from the planning phase onwards.

  • Agreement on the applicable criteria
  • Establishing the criteria used in tendering and contracting
  • Initial discussion with planners and builders
  • Site inductions with contractors
  • Approvals and optimisations for building products with the individual trades
  • Site visits for random checks
  • Final indoor air measuring
  • Written documentation

We offer building product management for all building certificates: klimaaktiv, IBO ÖKOPASS, ÖGNB, ÖGNI, BREEAM, LEED. As well as for public buildings, for new constructions and renovations alike.
