Sustainability in the Swiss real estate industry

Sustainability is no longer a “nice-to-have” in the Swiss real estate industry, but a central component of every investment and construction decision.

Laws such as the CO₂ Act, the Energy Act, and cantonal building regulations set clear requirements for sustainable construction, operation, and disposal—and at the same time open up opportunities for resource-efficient buildings, the use of renewable energies, and long-term value appreciation.
