Architecture shapes our living space permanently and significantly. This is precisely why architects make a decisive contribution to the careful use of our environment, the available resources and the social systems of our society.
We support you in this by creating solutions for sustainable building.
Peace of mind, sustainable and beautiful?
The material HFX stainless from ROOFINOX does just that. The longest service life combined with maintenance-free products, self-healing surfaces and natural materials create the necessary framework for this.
What does sustainable building mean?
The term sustainability is frequently used and often interpreted individually.
In order to find a generally valid understanding, we use definitions from two organisations that are dedicated to the development of sustainable construction:
"Sustainability is not a one-off treatment or product. Instead, green building is a process that involves the building, site, facility, operations and the surrounding community. The process of green building encompasses the entire life cycle of a project, starting with the project idea and seamlessly transitioning to the end of life when the components are recycled or reused."
Conscious handling and use of available resources
Minimisation of energy consumption & use of renewable energies
Preserving the environment for future generations
Consideration of the entire life cycle
Sustainable building as an integrative process
ROOFINOX has set itself the task of promoting sustainable building. At the same time, we are making great efforts to manufacture our products as environmentally friendly as possible.
To this end, we and our partners are committed to taking the necessary measures to achieve the 1.5° target. The climate targets have been confirmed by the Science Based Targets Initiative. The long-term goal is to make the production of HFX stainless carbon neutral by 2050.
To further reduce emissions the following measures are being implemented:
- further increase in recycled content
- further increase in low-carbon energy sources
- replacement of fossil fuels and reducers from renewable sources
- further improvement in energy efficiency and material efficiency
- reduction of emissions in the supply chain and during transport
How sustainable is HFX stainless?
In accordance with the previously mentioned requirements for sustainable construction, here you can see why HFX stainless is a leader in all aspects of sustainability.
HFX stainless from ROOFINOX is made from over 90% recycled material. Our materials last for generations without the need for ongoing maintenance and can be easily recycled by type at the end of their useful life. But it is also possible to reuse products made from HFX stainless, thus creating a basic prerequisite for the circular economy.
Beautiful, timeless materials that age without disadvantages contribute to sustainability, as do long-lasting buildings with materials that do not require regular maintenance. Roof drainage made of HFX stainless is ideal for protecting our water reserves and soil quality, as it does not cause heavy metal run-off or microplastic pollution.
European origin and European standards
All our products are of European origin. Our manufacturing plants are located in Finland, Germany and Austria, which ensures that we comply with the particularly high requirements and regulations for environmental standards and working conditions in the European Union. This also ensures our high quality awareness and enables us to act as a company in the long term.
As an Austrian manufacturer, we strengthen regional value chains and promote the local development of expertise.
