LOYTEC’s ESG Journey:
Upcycle your Space for a Sustainable Future.
How LOYTEC is Leading the Way in Retrofitting ESGBuilding Automation
At LOYTEC, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Our commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices is not just about responsibility—it's a significant business opportunity that aligns with our core mission. We believe that retrofitting existing buildings is key to addressing the global net-zero challenge by 2050. This page explores how our ESG efforts and our "Upcycle Your Space" initiative create smarter, more efficient buildings contributing to a sustainable future.
The Critical Role of ESG in the Building Industry
While the standard approach in the professional building industry often focuses on installing new windows and improving insulation—measures that are important but can be costly and disruptive—there are immediate steps that can make a significant difference. Building Automation and Control Systems (BACS), such as those offered by LOYTEC, can quickly enhance energy efficiency, improve tenant wellbeing, reduce CO₂ emissions, and safeguard the owner's investment without the need for extensive structural modifications.
Immediate Impact of BACS:
Energy Savings:
Implementing BACS can reduce building energy consumption by up to 30%, depending on the building type and systems integrated.
Enhanced Comfort:
Improves indoor environmental quality through precise control of lighting, temperature, and air quality.
Cost Efficiency:
Offers a more affordable alternative to heavy renovations, providing a faster return on investment.
By enhancing building performance through intelligent control systems, we can significantly reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions globally.
Environmental Focus:
Smarter Energy,
Cleaner Production
Energy Efficiency:
Implementing energy-saving technologies reduces operational costs and environmental impact. We design solutions that minimize power consumption and reduce the number of hardware components needed for superior building automation.
Sustainable Materials:
We are committed to minimizing the use of plastics and reducing packaging waste, using eco-friendly and recycled materials to minimize resource depletion.
Water Conservation:
Incorporating water-efficient fixtures and systems reduces consumption, contributing to overall resource conservation.
Solar Energy Expansion:
At our headquarters in Vienna, we've expanded our solar capabilities, generating more energy than our production lines consume.
Local Production:
The majority of our products are designed, engineered, and produced in Vienna, Austria, reducing transportation emissions and supporting local economies.
For our clients, this means we offer solutions that prioritize energy efficiency and sustainability. By focusing on retrofitting with technologies like BACS rather than solely relying on structural upgrades, we help reduce operational and embodied carbon, enhance energy efficiency, and align with ESG goals like net-zero emissions and decarbonization.
Social Responsibility:
Enhancing Well-being and Community Impact
Occupant Health and Comfort:
Our solutions improve indoor air quality, lighting, and thermal comfort, enhancing well-being and productivity for building occupants.
Community Impact:
By promoting sustainable buildings, we contribute positively to local communities and economies, supporting job creation and economic growth.
By "taking our own medicine," we ensure that our commitment to ESG is reflected both in our operations and in the solutions we provide.
Governance:
Strong Principles and Transparency
Regulatory Compliance:
We ensure that our products and operations comply with local and international building codes and sustainability standards.
Transparency:
We are committed to reporting on ESG metrics, fostering transparency and accountability in our business practices
