Success for Lindab's residential ventilation in Italy

Lindab has recently supplied a complete indoor climate system with heat recovery to a prestigious residential property in central Turin, Italy. The building, Palazzo San Carlo, which is a classified heritage building, is being refurbished to very high standards with energy efficiency demands exceeding the European norms.

Andrea Chieregato, Manager of Tecno Engineering, the climate system contractor, comments: "The goal was to create a first class residence in an extremely energy efficient building while keeping its historical character. Lindab has strong technical competence and we were confident that they would deliver a complete solution that is both silent and efficient."

Nils-Johan Andersson, Lindab's Business Area Manager for Ventilation comments: "We estimate that the European Residential ventilation market is worth around EUR 1 bn and growing strongly, driven by EU directives with growing demands on energy efficiency in buildings. For Lindab this means a strong growth potential from quite a low level. The new concept Lindab Inside is addressing this market with individual solutions adapted regionally. During 2012 Lindab has been particularly successful in Italy and France, and the Palazzo San Carlo is a very good example".

Lindab's residential ventilation.

Residential ventilation is a segment that grows by around 20 percent annually in Europe, strongly driven by EU directives with stronger demands on energy efficiency in buildings. Each country has different norms and conditions, which demand individual solutions. Lindab's offering for residential ventilation, Lindab Inside, is currently available in five European countries and will be launched in further five this year. During 2012 Lindab has noted particular success in Italy and France where there is strong demand for technical support during the design phase. Lindab has a competitive advantage with its advanced IT tools to optimise and guarantee the performance of the ventilation system.
