Our sustainability strategy

At Kvadrat Shade, we seek to drive the transformation towards

circular building design. To achieve this ambition, we follow

Conscious Design Principles. Our solutions can support your

decarbonisation goals, and we provide transparency through

impact documentation.

Our innovative, long-lasting solutions enable opportunities for

positive change and support the 17 UN sustainability goals. At the

same time, they elevate quality of space, inspire well-being, and

provide exceptional creative flexibility.

If we are to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement, driving the

transition towards net zero buildings is essential. Building

operations – specifically the energy used for heating, cooling and

lighting – are responsible for 28% of annual global CO

2

emissions*.

The impact documentation and third-party verifications we offer,

show how you can use our solutions to strengthen the sustainability

credentials of your project. Specifically, they evidence how to

heighten energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, and meet

criteria for green building certificates, such as BREEAM and LEED.
