“Sustainable renovation must be more attractive than building new structures on greenfield sites. When new construction takes place, sustainable and natural materials must be prioritized. To achieve this, a great deal of awareness-raising and educational work is still needed, in addition to forward-looking pilot projects and corresponding legislative initiatives.”

“Our company enriches VIVIUS with practical expertise in the use of reclaimed and eco-friendly building materials. We experiment with new possibilities and breathe new life into forgotten building materials. Our collaboration with VIVIUS provides us with a valuable exchange with like-minded individuals who share our commitment to sustainability. To embed sustainability in the long term, we calculate the carbon footprint of every building component, prioritize reuse, and favor locally sourced materials.”

‍“As part of a statewide network of over 160 companies, ARO brings valuable expertise to the maintenance and upkeep of buildings—an often underestimated but essential aspect of sustainable construction. Our partnership with VIVIUS gives us the opportunity to develop in targeted ways and drive innovative, sustainable solutions forward. Our certification with the South Tyrol Sustainability Label and the calculation of our carbon footprint underscore our commitment. Through digital processes and optimized workflows, we minimize emissions and thus actively contribute to resource-efficient building operations in South Tyrol.”
