Responsible business practices

With an emphasis on sustainable action, OIKOS is able to advance traditional prefabricated construction.

We take responsibility for what we do. That is why, for us, ecological and economical aspects go hand in hand. We consider all the facets of sustainability by taking an economical, social and ecologically responsible approach and having a moral responsibility to future generations.

The Oikos approach for more sustainability

„Our aim is to take a leading role in the prefabricated construction sector in terms of sustainability: We want to do our part to further reduce CO2 emissions in the industry and set the course for net zero emissions in this CO2 and material-intensive sector. That's why we decided to publish our first sustainability report last year and set ourselves ambitious ESG targets with clear KPIs and implementation measures.“

OIKOS supports the German Sustainability Award 2024

Award for pioneering steps towards a sustainable future

Oikos Group is partner of this year's German Sustainability Award (Deutscher Nachhaltigkeitspreis), Europe's leading award for ecological and social commitment. The award is based on the goals of the 2030 Agenda and thus on the key areas of transformation such as climate, biodiversity, resources, supply chain and society. It recognises pioneering steps towards a sustainable future.

We, with our companies Bien-Zenker GmbH, Hanse Haus GmbH and Living Haus, create future-oriented, sustainable living spaces for our customers. Therefore, we are very proud to be part of this competition and thus support sustainable commitment.

Sustainable building

OIKOS uses building materials that are renewable and recyclable.

Besides choosing the right building materials, we also develop instruments for assessing the sustainability of building products, building systems, industrial processes and structures.

But that is just the beginning: the buildings of the future are constantly interacting with their environment. Sustainable neighbourhoods are interconnected systems that can no longer be viewed as consisting of only individual buildings; rather, their context as a whole could be considered from a completely new perspective through their interactions.
