ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) criteria are also used in the property market for sustainability assessments. Smart buildings full of sensors make it possible to combine efficiency with comfort and safety – even via a wireless network with the IP500 standard.

The construction industry and building operators are facing significant challenges in the coming years: rising material and energy costs, a continuing shortage of skilled labour, as well as new guidelines and laws for sustainability – ESG (environmental, social and governance) - and increased cyber security of commercial and industrial buildings. The IP500 standard provides robust and secure wireless connectivity to efficiently make the transition to sustainable, digital buildings, reducing operating costs while maintaining ESG certification with low installation costs.

Smart Building: Vergleich des Installationsaufwand Kabel versus Funk
Comparison of the installation effort in a commercial building. The installation of smart IP500 wireless sensors (right) helps to reduce the carbon footprint by up to 70 %. The IP500 wireless network also enables efficient retrofitting of smart functions in existing buildings.

Advantages of IP500 mesh technology:

  • Up to 70 % less CO₂ emissions thanks to smart IoT wireless systems.
  • Reduced installation costs and installation time – around 45 % cheaper than conventional datalinked systems.
  • Scalable and certified systems for commercial applications, TÜV and VdS-certified for the highest security standards.

Renowned planners, system integrators and construction companies are already using the IP500 standard for ESG-compliant projects. They benefit from future-proof digital twin models to realise sustainable, digital utilisation concepts for existing buildings and new buildings more quickly – i.e. with fewer skilled workers – and with significantly lower material costs (figure).
