Vision & focus
Vision 2012
We are a leading institute for healthy constructing and housing, and independent from single political (associations, parties and other institutions), economic (single product partners) and methodical (medical, monitoring) interest groups.
The focus of our activities is to support, i.e. maintain and restore, the residents' health indoors – accomplished via clearly defined and revisable rules and criteria. Attainable across the borders of the different trades and integrative.
We are a source of inspiration for politics and economy. Independent from dogmas and open to innovation.
We are economically cost-effective.
We are the national and international contact for a healthier interior space in politics and media.
We are the contact and know-how partner for everyone involved in the value chain of construction for the creation of healthier interior space.
We support healthy and ill people. For this and via a wholesome inspection, we also make use of a selective interdisciplinary network of competence.
