Children’s daycare center in Monheim, Germany.

		There’s nothing like starting young when it comes to environmental awareness and healthy living. The children’s daycare center in Monheim was developed in cooperation with Ingenieurbüro P. Jung as part of the EcoCommercial Building Program. It achieves an emissions-neutral energy balance over the course of the year.
For this achievement, the German Ministry of Economics presented the daycare center with the prestigious award for “Energy-Optimized Building 2009” as part of the “Berliner Energie Tage” event. We attach great importance to investing in this building project, because the company believes children benefit from experiencing life in a building of the future at an early age, along the lines of “start as you mean to go on”.
