Foremost are ecological reasons: sustainable construction conserves precious resources and minimises energy usage and environmental cost. Yet sustainability also has economic advantages such as lower usage and repairs\u00a0costs as well as a reduced depreciation. Since buildings are ultimately intended for their occupants, sociocultural considerations such as\u00a0climate control\u00a0and health &amp; safety as well as\u00a0aesthetics are of primary import.<\/p>\n<p>Whether viewed from an economic, ecological or sociocultural perspective, green \/ sustainable building makes sense.

In contrast to materials such as aluminium, steel and glass, natural stone does not need to be manufactured at great energetic cost. Energy expenditure is limited to carving stones from the seam and applying the desired surface-finishing. In terms of its total energy footprint, natural stone excels both as a construction material as well as for cladding.<\/p>\n<p>Besides the small energetic production cost, rear-ventilated natural stone cladding also contributes to reduced operating expenses. Particularly during warm months, a large part of the energy required for cooling can be saved by employing thermally insulated natural stone cladding.<\/p>\n<p>Our company uses renewable energy source long ago.<br \/>\nHOFMANN STONE also uses energy from renewable sources. The electricity required to process our natural stone is produced at our own hydroelectric facility. By employing renewable energy we ensure that our natural stones have a significantly reduced energy footprint.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;trenner&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<div class=\"top-link\"><a class=\"top-href\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/themes\/hofmann\/img\/totop.gif\"><\/a><\/div><hr class=\"renner\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"va-gallery\"><ul class=\"gallery \" lbid=\"27308506\"><li class=\"item hide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-nachhaltigkeit-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-nachhaltigkeit-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Renaturierter Steinbruch: vielf\u00e4ltiger Lebensraum\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-nachhaltigkeit-1.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-nachhaltigkeit-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/> <span class=\"title\">Re-naturalised quarry returned to the local ecosystem<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class=\"item hide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/oekologische-ressource2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/oekologische-ressource2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"Renaturierter Steinbruch: vielf\u00e4ltiger Lebensraum\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/oekologische-ressource2.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/oekologische-ressource2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/> <span class=\"title\">Re-naturalised quarry returned to the local ecosystem<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><ul class=\"pagination\"><li class=\"elm-1 item active\" elm=\"1\">1<\/li><li class=\"elm-2 item \" elm=\"2\">2<\/li><\/ul><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Ecological resource<\/h3>\n<p><strong>A natural product as a sustainable material<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Natural stone is the most prevalent and versatile resource on the planet \u2013 comprising the earth&#8217;s entire solid crust. The low environmental footprint over the entire life cycle of the material makes natural stone a clear winner. Unlike other building materials, it can simply be mined and does not require a large energy investment. Extraction is environmentally friendly, since\u00a0the quarries\u00a0can be re-naturalised and returned to the local ecosystem. In this manner, a multitude of site-specific biotopes are created, providing a new habitat for a vast number of animal and plant species. Disposal is similarly ecological: natural stone can be recycled 100% by converting it to gravel or stone dust.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;trenner&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<div class=\"top-link\"><a class=\"top-href\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/themes\/hofmann\/img\/totop.gif\"><\/a><\/div><hr class=\"renner\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"va-gallery\"><ul class=\"gallery \" lbid=\"985359575\"><li class=\"item hide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umweltpolitik-deutsch_Seite_1-e1646987154116.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1599\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umweltpolitik-deutsch_Seite_1-e1646987154116.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/li><li class=\"item hide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umweltpolitik-deutsch_Seite_3-scaled-e1646987173963.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Umweltpolitik-deutsch_Seite_3-scaled-e1646987173963.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/li><\/ul><ul class=\"pagination\"><li class=\"elm-1 item active\" elm=\"1\">1<\/li><li class=\"elm-2 item \" elm=\"2\">2<\/li><\/ul><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Environmental policy<\/h3>\n<p>HOFMANN NATURSTEIN GmbH &amp; Co.

The ecological and energetic costs constituted a major consideration, leading the architects and constructors to choose a rear-ventilated natural stone fa\u00e7ade over the glass fa\u00e7ade of the original design.<\/p>\n<p>The excellent environmental footprint of natural stone has also been confirmed in a study PE International, the renowned sustainability advice. In their study, the footprint of a natural stone fa\u00e7ade was compared with one composed entirely of glass. The data for this study was obtained from the natural stone fa\u00e7ade of the Opera Tower.<\/p>\n<p>The results are unequivocal: throughout the entire life cycle of the building, the natural stone cladding offers significant environmental advantages when compared with the glass fa\u00e7ade. The environmental impact of the natural stone fa\u00e7ade was only a quarter to a third of that of the glass design.<\/p>\n<p>The insulating effect of the suspended rear-ventilated cladding results in significantly reduced heat loss during the winter and decreased cooling requirements during the summer. Not only the primary energy cost but also other recognised environmental parameters such as green house gas emissions, ozone destruction and acidification potential are significantly reduced.<\/p>\n<p>The entire sustainability study with all facts and figures can be obtained from:<\/p>\n<p>Deutscher Naturwerkstein Verband e.V.<br \/>\nSanderstra\u00dfe 4<br \/>\n97070 W\u00fcrzburg<br \/>\nFon 0931\/12061<br \/>\nFax 0931\/14549<br \/>\ninfo@natursteinverband.de<br \/>\nwww.natursteinverband.de<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"References\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/English\/References%20Detailpar\/pid\/2\/\">Back to references<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;trenner&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<div class=\"top-link\"><a class=\"top-href\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/themes\/hofmann\/img\/totop.gif\"><\/a><\/div><hr class=\"renner\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"va-gallery\"><ul class=\"gallery transparent\" lbid=\"1165139474\"><li class=\"item hide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-naturstein-nachhaltigkeit-logo-dgnb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"330\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-naturstein-nachhaltigkeit-logo-dgnb.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-naturstein-nachhaltigkeit-logo-dgnb.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.hofmann-naturstein.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/hofmann-naturstein-nachhaltigkeit-logo-dgnb-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>DGNB \/ LEED<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Proof of quality and sustainability<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sustainable building makes sense.
