15% less CO2 emissions by 2023 as compared to 2020
Green electricity at our sites and technological innovations along our entire value chain pave the way to minimizing CO2 emissions. Climate-neutral bricks and photovoltaic roof riles are just some of the many innovative products we offer/are working on.
In order to ensure long-term availability of raw materials, increasing our amount of recycled or secondary raw materials used in production is of great importance to Wienerberger.
The results: Longer Life Cycles, Lower Material Consumption, Environmental Benefits.
To maintain and increase biodiversity as much as possible, we created the Biodiversity Action Plan which will be implemented to all our production sites by 2023. By avoiding hazardous substances in our production processes, replenishing clay extraction sites and developing recyclable and environmentally-friendly products, we do our best to provide habitats for flora and fauna.
The Wienerberger e4 house concept was developed with the 2020 building directive by the European Union in mind, aiming towards energy-efficiency and sustainable building, reducing the emission of greenhouse gases by 20% and increasing the amount of utilized renewable energies by 20%.
Wienerberger has developed the e4 concept with experts to offer families an energy-efficient, healthy as well as affordable house.
