Buildings & Construction

"How do we want to live in the future?" This is one of the few key questions raised during the European Resources Forum (ERF).

Within the construction industry, front-runners are responding to the our visions around sustainable living and even provide us with solutions we weren't able to imagine. Hubert Rhomberg, CEO of Rhomberg Holding GmbH and speaker at the ERF, is THE example of an entrepreneuer with such a creativity and power to change the world around him. His firm created its business case on maximum resource and energy efficiency: CREE - Creative Resource & Energy Efficiency.

The LifeCycle Tower is one of of CREE' projects: A unique wood-hybrid construction system which enables buildings to be erected using the principles of maximum resource and energy efficiency. Durable, natural, sustainable, safe and, with 30 stories, up to 100 metres high. The LCT ONE, with its eight stories and prime location at the Rhomberg factory in Dornbirn, is a showpiece of sustainable building.
