Certification

Zertifizieung nach WELL Building Standard und DGNB

Planning Services as a Contribution to Certification

Certification systems assess the quality of the built environment not only in terms of energy efficiency but also regarding health, comfort, and sustainability. Lighting plays a key role in this context — both in terms of visual quality and its biological impact. In the International WELL Building Institute certification, the focus is placed on people. Criteria such as visual comfort, Human Centric Lighting, daylight utilization, and glare control make a significant contribution to creating a healthy and productive work environment. Professional lighting design ensures that illuminance levels, color temperatures, and light distribution are optimally adapted to the specific use and natural daylight cycles. The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen (DGNB) also considers lighting quality within its sustainability criteria. Well-planned lighting supports compliance with requirements for energy efficiency, user comfort, safety, and environmental protection. By combining efficient lighting technology, precise planning, and intelligent control systems, lighting can make a valuable contribution to achieving certification goals.  

- ​Contribution to the fulfillment of WELL Building Standard and DGNB criteria
- ​Daylight integration and lighting control concepts
- ​Human Centric Lighting to support well-being and performance
- ​Glare control and visual ergonomics
- ​Reduction of light emissions
- ​Energy efficiency and CO₂ reduction
- ​Proof of compliance through lighting calculations and documentation
- ​Avoidance of lightemission into noctual environments

Professional lighting design allows certification targets to be addressed strategically, planning processes to be made more efficient, and the attractiveness and value of buildings to be measurably increased.
The result: certified buildings that combine health, sustainability, and economic efficiency.
