When it comes to the major goals of urban development, energy efficiency, climate adaptation and everyday responsibility, the way we choose to build matters enormously.

The Danish Green Building Council administers, amongst other things, the leading voluntary certification scheme in Denmark known as DGNB Denmark.<\/p>\n<h2>DGNB certification<\/h2>\n<p>DGNB is based on the UN&#8217;s definition of sustainability and consists of 6 main areas: environmental quality, economic quality, social quality, technical quality, process quality and site quality.<\/p>\n<p>We construct buildings with a long service life and a healthy, comfortable indoor climate. In addition, concrete has an inherent potential to be reused over time.<\/p>\n<p>These are elements that will become a natural part of the construction of the future, and\u00a0<strong>CRH Denmark<\/strong>\u00a0is well on its way. For us, there is no contradiction between responsibility and development.
