As part of the building envelope, Schüco solutions can influence the grey emissions of the façade (embodied carbon) and the CO₂ emissions during operation (operational carbon) of a property. The product portfolio includes optimised window and façade systems for energy-efficient buildings. If required, they can achieve the passive house standard. Schüco also provides smart building solutions. They make building operation even more efficient and further reduce the carbon footprint.
The grey emissions of a façade can also be reduced with Schüco - through the use of CO₂-optimised materials. With aluminium and PVC-U systems in particular, you can reduce the footprint not only through the design, but also through the choice of material.
Schüco also supports you with property-specific life cycle assessments to show the greenhouse gas potential of your planned property. Our design software makes it possible to precisely determine the grey emissions of the façade solution and report them for your building project.
