Sustainability as part of our DNA

At Barcol-Air by Swegon, we take responsibility for people, the environment and the future of our planet. Our Code of Conduct and our strategies for a more sustainable future provide the foundation for this approach. At the same time, we develop solutions designed to reduce energy consumption, conserve resources and improve indoor comfort.

We believe that long-term growth must take environmental and social aspects into account. Sustainability considerations are therefore integrated into our work, from material selection to product development.

Our aim is to act responsibly today and contribute to healthy, liveable environments for the future.

Environmental Product Declarations

Making the environmental impacts of products transparent

Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) provide transparent information on the environmental impacts of our products across defined life cycle stages and are independently verified. They support planners and building owners in comparing the environmental impacts of products on a transparent basis and taking them into account during planning.

Carbon-reduced steel for climate ceilings

A significant share of a building’s emissions is generated before it is even in use, including through the production of the construction materials used. Particularly for metal components such as heating and cooling ceilings, it therefore makes sense to choose materials with a reduced CO₂e footprint. CO₂-reduced steel offers a clear advantage here, as the reduction starts directly at the steel production stage, which accounts for a significant share of the product-related CO₂e emissions.

RYKO ceiling system

Our patented RYKO system enables the reuse of ceiling panels in ceiling sail systems, reducing waste and offering maximum flexibility for future modifications.

Conventional systems cannot meet these requirements, as their design necessitates panels with various bends and cut-outs. In contrast, our system allows any panel to be installed in any position. Ceiling sails can also be downsized at a later stage without the need to order new panels. Our innovation further enhances stability, simplifies installation, and ensures a consistently precise joint pattern.

Building mass connection with our hybrid systems

Energy efficiency is known as using less energy to get the same output. Free cooling is known as utilising the colder outdoor temperatures at night as a natural source for cooling, hence no necessity for the chiller to use additional energy. These two, energy efficiency and free cooling, are essential outcomes of using the potential of energy mass storage. Making use of a building mass to store energy until the night, makes it possible to take advantage of both while not making compromises with the indoor climate.
