A dormakaba Case Study
The European Investment Bank (EIB) in Luxembourg commissioned a new glass office building by Ingenhoven Architects with the goal of being a model of transparency, energy efficiency and sustainability—ultimately becoming the first on the European continent to receive BREEAM "Bespoke" certification with a "very good" rating. To meet high-traffic operational needs while minimizing energy loss and preserving ecological credentials, the EIB engaged dormakaba to provide integrated door and escape solutions.
dormakaba delivered technically sophisticated door closers, elegant automatic doors and emergency exit control systems that are easy to use and built for continuous, high‑endurance operation. These systems reduced thermal leakage and supported the building’s energy-conservation targets, helped ensure reliable access and safety under heavy use, and contributed to the project’s overall sustainability performance and its BREEAM Bespoke "very good" outcome.
