Vibe is the first office building in Poland to have such a certificate

The VIBE office building belonging to Ghelamco, located in Warsaw's business center, received the prestigious DGNB New Buildings International 2020 certificate at Gold level, becoming the first office building in Poland with such recognition. This is confirmation that VIBE meets the highest standards of sustainable construction, combining innovative technologies with environmental care. DGNB certification evaluates projects in terms of ecology, economics and social aspects, making VIBE one of the most advanced office buildings in the country.

The office building is distinguished not only by the DGNB certificate, but also by other prestigious awards, such as BREEAM Outstanding, Green Building Standard, Barrier-Free Facility and WELL pre-certification (ultimately WELL v2 Core). Its modern character is also emphasized by SmartScore and WiredScore certificates at the Platinum level, testifying to the highest standard of technological advancement. VIBE is also a unique project in terms of atmosphere – its musical DNA, enriched with a specially composed audio atmosphere, is the first such solution in Poland.

With environmental care in mind, VIBE uses advanced technologies such as the Building Energy Management System (BEMS), which significantly reduces energy consumption, or pressure sewage reducing water consumption by as much as 75% annually. An InBin application was also used, analyzing the carbon footprint generated by tenant waste and optimizing its collection. During construction, materials with a reduced carbon footprint were used, and the surroundings were enriched with abundant vegetation – 18 trees 7 meters high and over 8,600 shrubs and perennials. Ultimately, the building will be powered 100% by clean energy, including from photovoltaic farms belonging to Ghelamco.
