How to invest sustainably?

Sustainable investment is about the responsibility and potential that the real estate sector has in achieving climate and environmental sustainability goals. In a rapidly urbanising world, the real estate sector is at the centre of unprecedented levels of growth and activity.

Investors, tenants, cities, and governments can and must play a key role in achieving reductions in greenhouse gas emissions associated with the construction and operation of real estate, as well as the sensible use of space and the surrounding landscape.

Is it worth investing sustainably?

The last decade has been good for responsible investing. It has done particularly well in the last 2 years, when ESG funds outperformed the market growth average by 8.54 %. However, they lost the lead at the end of this year - lagged behind the market average by 2.5 %.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG). Investors are increasingly applying these non-financial factors as part of the analysis process to identify material risks and opportunities for growth. However, there have also been widespread instances of misuse of the concept. Companies and funds may be overvalued due to the 'hype' around green and 'responsible' solutions. This phenomenon is referred to as 'greenwashing'.

Slová ekologický a udržateľný totiž nie sú regulované zákonom. Pri výbere teda treba ísť pod povrch - pri fondoch za označenie skratkou ESG, pri výbere zámeru za „eko" v jeho názve.

The Eco-hydro family house project is both ecological and economical

It offers investors the appreciation of their finances without the fear of not selling the finished house. Why? Because it will provide the new owners with a pleasant living environment with low costs and economical use of energy.

How will it achieve this?

• Quality insulation and insulating windows will protect the owners from cold in winter and overheating in summer.
• A heat pump with cooling capability will reduce monthly costs. A family of 5 will pay no more than €100/month. In addition, thanks to in-floor cooling, there is no need for air conditioning.
• Hydraloop's pre-release technology for owners who want to reduce the burden on the planet, and their wallets.

Dosiahne tak vyšší záujem pre „jeho pridanú hodnotu okoliu“, samotné vyhotovenie, aj pre krásne prostredie, ktoré si môžete zútulniť pratickým altánkom či exteriérovou dlažbou. V okolí je nadmieru zelene, niekoľko cyklotrás a iných voľnočasových lákadiel, no každodenný život je na dosah ruky. Viac o tom nájdete na Facebook page and web site Project.

What is Hydraloop?

Hydraloop's unique combination of water treatment technologies ensures the highest quality water without the need for regular maintenance and without harming the environment.

It is consumer friendly, carefree and sustainable. The treatment process removes hair, dirt, soap and other contaminants from grey water without the use of filters, membranes or chemicals, so there is no need to clean or replace them. This significantly reduces the operating costs of the plant itself.

Hydraloop grey water treatment combines six technologies: sedimentation, flotation, dissolved air flotation, froth fractionation, aerobic bioreactor and disinfection of the treated water with strong UV light, which inactivates all pathogenic microorganisms.

Grey water, i.e. lightly polluted waste water from baths and showers, shower cubicles, or from washing machines, sinks, air conditioners and heat pumps, finds a new use in the home.

The treatment technology used in Hydraloop has been tested and certified according to NSF-350 protocol and meets the most stringent international standards.
