Nearly Zero Energy Building

RUBANOX lends its expertise to the design and construction of NEARLY ZERO ENERGY BUILDINGS (NZEB) around the world.
NZEB refers to high energy performance buildings where energy requirements are very low and covered almost entirely by renewable energy produced on site.
In Italy, beginning on January 1, 2021 all buildings must be NZEB compliant, with the exception of public buildings, for which the requirement takes effect starting from January 1, 2019.
The Lombardy Region has anticipated the entry into force of NZEB as of January 1, 2016. In practice, all new construction or buildings subject to major restructuring works, whose designs are presented starting from January 1, 2016 are required to be NZEB compliant.
RUBANOX is a leader in the design of buildings with nearly zero energy needs, relying on the use of renewable energy sources to minimise or nullify the residual energy requirement.
The company also specialises in the reduction of transmission and ventilation losses, optimising energy yields.
The building envelope and airtightness play a key role in the design.
In order to reduce transmission losses, insulating materials that are able to guarantee high performance both in the winter, as well as in the summer are used.
The same attention is attributed to ventilation, an element of great importance in an NZEB as transmission losses are virtually non-existent as a result of the high efficiency of the building envelope.
For the same reason it is necessary to install a controlled mechanical ventilation system with heat recovery, able to ensure proper internal ventilation both in terms of comfort, as well as internal living safety.
RUBANOX collaborates with renowned architectural designers and consultants to bring to life buildings of immense beauty and high energy efficiency, both in terms of new construction as well as restructuring works.
The company is always in step with the latest technologies and construction solutions ideal for the construction of buildings characterised by remarkable living comfort.
