Rating system climate.proof.build

Certification of building products

Climate change is here, and the conse­quences of climate extremes such as heat records, heavy rain and storms are endangering people and buildings. It is therefore a matter of slowing down climate change through sustainable and efficiently produced building prod­ucts, but also of protecting against the increasing climate extremes.

Climate-safe building products must therefore be efficient, sustainably pro­duced, free of pollutants, resilient to climate extremes and capable of being recycled. However, transparent evalu­ation systems for these criteria do not yet exist.

With the initiative „climate.proof.build“, ift Rosenheim has developed a valua­tion method that enables a transparent statement on the „climate safety“ of building components on the basis of recognised rules and standards.

The evaluation includes criteria of the product and the company (produc­tion). The result is a weighted indicator that companies can market with the associated label „climate.proof.build“ in a promotionally effective way.

Further information on details and costs is available on request.

Special show climate.proof.build

The special show at Fensterbau Frontale by NürnbergMesse and ift Rosenheim shows how sustainable, climate-resilient and thus future-proof building products look and are labelled. The focus is on reducing CO2 emissions during production and use, sustainable production, easy reparability and maintenance as well as protection against climate extremes.

Market research “climate-proof building”

In order to obtain reliable information about the interest of planners, manufacturers, dealers and builders in the topics of sustainability and climate-resilient building, ift Rosenheim conducted an online survey together with B+L Marktdaten. Further information on the survey and insights into the results can be found on the ift Rosenheim website.
