sustainable development
?Sustainable development is development which meets the needs of today without compromising the ability of future generations to satisfy their own requirements.?
Sustainable development covers energy, CO2 emissions, fresh water, waste, deforestation, biodiversity and ecosystems, human rights and working conditions.
Sustainable development: a major concern for CIAT
Sustainable development is at the heart of all of CIAT's areas of expertise.
CIAT contributes to sustainable development by designing environmentally-friendly heating and air-conditioning systems that take ecological and economical balance into consideration.
CIAT's equipment meets the requirements of the future European thermal regulation and thus helps to protect the environment for generations to come.
CIAT has also made a conscious choice to use R410A. This stable refrigerant has excellent thermodynamic properties and increases capacity whilst lowering greenhouse gas emissions generated by the production of electricity.
CIAT also actively participates in the Eurovent certification program, an independent body that tests and certifies the performance of HVAC equipment.
Sustainable development: a pivotal area of development for CIAT
At the heart of one of the profession's largest and most important research and innovation centres in Europe, teams of engineers use powerful tools to develop the systems of the future.
CIAT's Research and Innovation Centre: the drive to constantly go further in improving the quality of indoor environments, enhancing energy efficiency and controlling biocontamination.
From energy storage and the elimination of airborne contaminants and odours, to the capture and recycling of heat, which would otherwise be lost, to the optimisation and use of renewable energies, CIAT's Research and Innovation Centre is constantly in pursuit of increased comfort and safety. The air is sweet with promise.
Sustainable development for the benefit of the population.
Comfort as a source of productivity. Recent studies prove that comfortable working conditions increase the efficiency of those who work there.
