Impact of the Digital Transformation on Sustainability Efforts
As part of the ongoing digitalisation project, EGNATON will increasingly focus on the impact of digital transformation on sustainability goals in the planning, construction, operation and use of laboratory buildings.
The interactions of the introduction of digital technologies with the three sustainability dimensions will be worked out and documented. The goal is a sustainable introduction of digital technologies - in a holistic sense - that also releases recognisable synergy potentials.
Professionals interested in participating in this work are kindly asked to contact us.
EGNATON Forum
In June, we deal specifically with the sustainable laboratory environment.
Ventilation
assessment group
Is a sustainability assessment of laboratory ventilation possible?
If so, what strategic approach and methods do we need for this? The EGNATON ad hoc group is going into the third round of consultation.

I am obliged to work with very tight budgets. At the same time, sustainability issues demand considerations from a broader perspective and not merely in means of investment. Joining Egnaton allows me to enter a European network of experts who deal with these problems daily. Furthermore, it brings me into contact with reference projects outside my university or country and helps me define the proper answers to these questions.
Paul Lodewijckx, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (KUL), Belgium
As technology coordinator, I have provided the impetus for the further development of sustainability in the laboratory sector with various project approaches since EGNATON was founded. Now I am looking for a successor who will commit to continuing this work.
