Providing impetus for a sustainable future

During the implementation and operation of our projects, we minimise waste generation, energy consumption and harmful emissions, while helping to preserve the richness of the natural world. We develop our projects in accordance with the BREEAM classification system, one of the highest benchmarks available for sustainability. We provide all of our ongoing projects with green solutions, such as central heating and related alternative renewable energy sources (e.g. solar panels and air-to-air heat pump systems), as well as electric car chargers. One key feature of our projects is the presence of easily accessible public transport, amply demonstrated by the fact that all of our office buildings are located within 300 meters of the nearest underground station. We place considerable importance on the widespread use of public transport, which is why we create car parks that are ideal for car sharing, as well as bicycle storage and changing rooms.

In the office sector in Hungary, Futureal has helped popularise the WELL ratings system among industry professionals with the aim of constructing office buildings that, in addition to protecting the environment, are also beneficial for the health, wellbeing and comfort of the people that work there. The WELL system examines and evaluates the impact of buildings on people's bodies, their state of health and their well-being, with a focus on air and water supply, healthy eating options, natural light, physical exercise, comfort and mental freshness. The Futureal Group is committed to implementing all future office building projects in accordance with WELL guidelines. As part of a general approach to environmental awareness, the health of the users is considered one of the most important factors in the design of these buildings. Multilingual and pictorial signs in the Group's access-friendly buildings help employees find their way around. Art and design also play a key role in our investments, which is why we give space to a contemporary work of art in the immediate vicinity of each project, be it an eye-catching painting or an open-air sculpture.

Futureal has launched its Stay Safe initiative in response to the current global health emergency. The programme encompasses an entirely new way of thinking. It includes the development of comprehensive health protection safety measures and protocols and the creation of a safe environment for visitors.
Health and safety training is mandatory for new employees and guests in any office buildings managed by the Group. Health and safety inspections are held on a regular basis and full-time health personnel are on hand in the buildings.
As part of the Stay Safe initiative, in our next-generation office building currently under development, nearly all public areas will be contactless. Visitors will find automatic doors and light switches with card sensors, as well as safe-distance signs. The elevators can be operated using a telephone app, while the washrooms will be equipped with contactless flushing, hand basins and soap dispensers.
