Real estate for generations to come
The members of this council concentrate on the certification of buildings in accordance with the three pillars of sustainability. Economy, ecology and socio-cultural criteria are included throughout the entire real estate lifecycle. Other important factors are the selection of locations together with process and technical qualities. Another common goal is to stress the use of building certifications because they serve as guidelines for environmentally and resource conserving buildings with high economic and social efficiency. In this way, buildings can be flexibly used for generations and support the health, well-being and productivity of all users. EHL‘s commitment in this area is expressed by Michael Ehlmaier, Managing Partner of EHL Immobilien GmbH, who is a founding member of the ÖGNI. In addition, Karina Schunker, Managing Director of EHL Wohnen GmbH, joined the ÖGNI presidium in April 2022 and Stefan Wernhart, Managing Director of EHL Gewerbeimmobilien GmbH, serves as an ÖGNI ambassador.
EHL and the ÖGNI Sustainable properties create a healthy and comfortable atmosphere for living and working. They are a building block for greater well-being in our cities. As a founding member of ÖGNI - the Austrian Sustainable Building Council, EHL has given high priority for many years to projects that integrate the interests of society, ecology, economy. The ASBC was founded in 2009 as a partner to the German Sustainable Building Council (GSBC). Their certification system was adopted, modified to meet Austrian requirements, and continuously developed. The ÖGNI is an NGO and, as the only Austrian council, an “established member“ of the World Green Building Council. Its goal is to strengthen the international position of Europe’s quality certification.
