has a green heart

CONTAINING ENERGY IN THE BUILDING

In Europe buildings absorb more than 40% of the total energy consumption: a higher percentage than for

transport or industry!

Even if Italy has the advantage of having a warmer climate, the total energy consumption of buildings,

mainly for heat energy, is on average 300 kWh/m2/year (with peaks of 500 kWh/m2/year!); in Sweden it is

60 kWh/m2/year, and in Germany 200 kWh/m2/year.

The building envelope closes off the living environment in which comfortable climatic and environmen-

tal conditions are to be maintained and therefore more stable than the external environment, which is

marked by greater variability. In order to obtain this, energy obtained from fossil fuels is consumed and the

environment is polluted through the emission of harmful substances and carbon dioxide, leading to the

greenhouse effect and heating up the planet. Therefore, building, like other human and industrial activities,

is involved in the reduction of energy consumption, an objective that governments all over the world are

imposing through laws, technical regulations and incentives.

Energy consumption in existing buildings is the first problem to be considered because it is ongoing, even

if, as can be seen in the following chapters, it is not the only one considered in the design principles of

BIO-ARCHITECTURE.

The legislative provisions for energy saving are concerned with reducing heat dispersion in buildings

through issuing maximum thermal transmittance limits of the building envelope according to the climatic

area in which they are located; this is fulfilled by increasing thermal insulation. Naturally, respecting the

limits during the design and building stages makes no sense if the design solution does not last over time,

and the durability of the insulation does not only depend on the quality of the insulating material. In fact,

INDEX has not stopped at just producing high performance insulating materials but, in order to maintain

the thermal insulation performance over time, with the specific aforementioned technical publications, it

suggests the best protection systems, which are safe and easy to maintain and repair.

KYOTO PROTOCOL

This is an international agreement that was ratified in 1997 with which 169 nations in the world committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in order to contrast climate change. To reach these objectives work is now being carried out both on energy saving, through optimisation in the production stage and in the final use of high efficiency installations, buildings and systems, and the development of alternative sources of energy to fossil fuels, in favour of renewable ones.

BIO-ARCHITECTURE

By definition BIO-ARCHITECTURE has a holistic vision of sustainability and imposes design choices

that do not only regard energy containment in existing buildings.

Through interdisciplinary knowledge BIO-ARCHITECTURE seeks to improve the current quality of life

preventing environmental pollution and the quality of life of future generations being compromised

through excessive use of resources.

Therefore, as well as energy containment, the design principles of BIO-ARCHITECTURE must also

consider urban/landscape integration, the use of renewable sources of energy, the environmental

impact of building products through the analysis of their life cycle LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), the

impact of the building stage, as well as a forecast of the environmental impact during the manage-

ment and maintenance/repair stages, partial or total modification of the intended use for parts/all of

the building, during its partial or total demolition and, at the end of its lifetime, recycling of the building

materials.

The trend of architecture for sustainable development is not limited to the design of a “conservative”

envelope from an energy standpoint, but intends to make the building envelope take on an “active”

role in energy saving by designing buildings that can interact with the environment through their shape

and orientation, the organisation of the internal areas, the design of horizontal roof gardens and verti-

cal gardens on the sides of buildings, ventilated external walls, roofs and external walls with thermal

solar energy collection and photovoltaic systems and doors/windows that use new transparent mate-

rials that can regulate the heat flow and/or produce energy from the sun, etc.

WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT?Sustainable development is development that fulfils present requirements without compromising the possibility of the future generations fulfilling their requirements

WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE BUILDING?It is the translation in building of the concept of sustainable development

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OR SUSTAINABLE BUILDING Is the awareness that a decision made “here and now” will have a consequence “everywhere in the future”

“Green Building”, “sustainable building”, “bio-building”, “bio-architecture” and “eco-compatible design” are synonyms that indicate the design, construction and management of buildings with the awareness that a decision made here and now will have a consequence everywhere in the future. Therefore, it aims to reduce the impact of building on the environment and is the meaning of “sustainable development” in the building industry.

INDEX produces materials and suggests systems for sustainable building in compliance with the Green Building Council criteria

GBC Italia has the task of using the common guidelines to everyone in the international community, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental

Design), to develop the characteristics of the “LEED Italia” system, which must take into consideration the specific climatic, building and legislative

conditions in Italy.

LEED opts for a view of sustainability by making the most of all possibilities to reduce the various kinds of environmental impacts and harmful emissions of the

buildings being built. LEED standards are parameters for sustainable building developed in the USA and indicate the requirements for eco-compatible buildings,

able to “work” sustainably and self-sufficiently energy-wise. It is essentially a rating system for the development of “green” buildings.

LEED is a certification, which may be obtained on a voluntary basis, where the actual designer deals with collecting the data for the assessment. The system is

based on the award of credits for each of the requirements that characterise the sustainability of the building.

The certification level obtained comes from the sum of the credits.

The assessment criteria used by LEED 2009 (USA 2009 version) are grouped into seven categories, which envisage one or more compulsory prerequisites and a

number of environmental performances that attribute the building’s final score:

• Sustainable sites (1 prerequisite, 26 points)

• Efficient water consumption (1 prerequisite, 10 points)

• Energy and atmosphere (3 prerequisites, 35 points)

• Materials and resources (1 prerequisite, 14 points)

• Indoor environmental quality (2 prerequisites, 15 points)

• Innovation and design process (6 points)

• Regional priority (4 points) only applicable in the USA

The sum of the points obtained in the 7 categories

classifies the building into the 4 rating levels:

• Certified: between 40 and 49 points

• Silver: between 50 and 59 points

• Gold: between 60 and 79 points

• Platinum: More than 80 points

In order to make a correct design choice with sensitivity

to the environmental issue, INDEX produces materials and

suggests systems for sustainable building in compliance with

the Green Building Council criteria, aimed at:

• Reducing the environmental impact of building materials both

while they are being laid and while they are in use.

• Reducing indoor pollution.

• Reusing materials recovered from pre- and post-consumption

of building products.

• Saving energy in buildings

• Reducing “urban heat islands”.

• Reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

• Making progress in living comfort, eliminating the problems of

humidity, heat insulation and sound insulation in the building.

“Intensive green roofs” and “extensive green roofs” contribute to improving the thermal insulation of the building, hence reducing energy consumption.

Thermal insulating and transpiring systems reduce heat dispersion and improve comfort in the building

SOME OF THE ELEMENTS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THE AWARD OF LEED POINTS

INDEX’S “GREEN” RESEARCH

A long time ago Index launched an intense research and development campaign into new materials

and systems with reduced energy impact, both during laying and while in use.

The study did not just look at the finished product but also the production system for

obtaining it. Since 2001 the INDEX factory has had ISO 14001 certification, voluntary

certification controlled by an external organisation (Bureau Veritas) who certifies the

environmental management adopted by the company for reducing the impact of its

production activities on the environment.

Over the years, a wide range of materials have been created that respect the envi-

ronment and reduce the risks of accidents on worksites, as well as a wide range of products and

systems for energy saving in buildings, for safety and for comfort in the living environment.

INDEX PRODUCTS AND SYSTEMS WITH LOW ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT

1st DIVISIONINDEX produces EC marked membranes to be used in waterproofing systems for which the EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) a voluntary declaration in conformity with ISO 14040 e ISO 14050 has been drawn up, which:• Provides information on the environmental impact during the entire life cycle (LCA) of a product

system/process or service that respects the minimum thresholds established by the PSR/PCR (product specific requirements) defined for that category by the relevant associations for fair comparison between products in the same category, based on the environmental performances

• It may be requested as a preferential criterion by public and private customers who intend to follow a sustainable purchasing policy in view of environmental protection

The EPD of polymer-bitumen membranes:• Is analysed for the membrane within the context of the roof;• The product is no longer the membrane but the layered roof arrangement where the protection carries out an important role;• The study refers to the membrane because water tightness is the main role of the roof;• The assessment was conducted on 6 basic layered arrangements.

Further environmental and safety qualities of innovative INDEX membranes:INDEX produces innovative membranes that during laying allow higher safety and lower environ-mental impact levels to be obtained, compared to the standard membranes:• The vapour barriers TECTENE BV STRIP and PROMINENT allow the thermal insulation to be

glued strongly without using molten bitumen and the relative melting pot on the roof, eliminat-ing the relative emission of irritating fumes and smells and, more importantly, the risk of seri-ous burns for the operators.

• The Self-Adhesive, Self/Thermal Adhesive and Thermal-Adhesive membranes in the Best-Adesive series: are laid cold (for the thermal adhesives with reduced gas consumption), with consequent energy saving and reduction in CO2 emissions (carbon dioxide - greenhouse gas), eliminating the risk of burns for the operators and the risk of the insulation and wood roofs go-ing on fire.

• With the SELFTENE BV BIADESIVO membranes, used as a vapour barrier, the thermal insula-tion are glued cold, with the aforementioned benefits.

3rd DIVISIONThe products: WATERBASE PRIMER, ELASTOLIQUID PUR, ELASTOLIQUID PUR AU-TOESTINGUENTE, COVERCOL AB RAPID, ELASTOLIQUID, ELASTOLIQUID STRONG, PROTIFER, ECOVER, INDEMASTIC, IDROLASTIK, WHITE REFLEX, INDECOLOR COOL REFLEX, INDECOLOR, VERLUX, IDROFIX, SIGILSTIK, UNISIL Ghave low environmental impact because:• they have a water base• they are free from solvents• they do not contain dangerous substances• they do not require specific safety measures for the operators• they are not hazardous for transport• they conform to Directive 2004/42/CE regarding the maximum limits of VOC

(volatile organic compounds) in paints
