We all know how important it is to protect our environment and preserve natural resources. The CO₂ consumption of the industrial nations is continuously increasing, earth is heating up and the climate changing.

We at SIGA are aware of our ecological responsibility and make a huge contribution to the protection of our environment. But we also protect your wallet.

With our SIGA system you can save a lot of energy after building or renovation of a house. Thanks to a thoroughly sealed air and windtight building envelope heat stays where it belongs - in the house. Contrary to an incomplete sealing, this will considerably reduce your heating costs.

The heating is by far the greatest energy guzzler in our households. A gap of one millimetre width and one metre length already reduces thermal insulation in this area by about 40 %. A properly sealed airtight layer will reduce your heating costs by about 1/3. Together with the reduced thermal loss your CO₂ emission will drop. So kill two birds with one stone: save cash and simultaneously counteract the climate change!

The request to save energy is no publicity gimmick of SIGA. We, also, try to stop climate change by emphasising environmental consciousness in the production of our products. Plants for heat recovery, waste water treatment and utilisation of rain water are integrated in our production process. The production building in Ruswil completed in 2000 consists of untreated wood. In addition, investment in a biogas power plant and installation of a solar power system are planned for the future. Moreover all SIGA products are free from residential toxins. Also in daily office life small measures have a big impact; e.g. our computers are connected to toggle switches, the lighting in the aisles is controlled by motion detectors, etc.
