The benefits of building with steel
speak for themselves
Steel is a versatile building material that offers a number of advantages. It is produced with low emissions and is endlessly recyclable, which in turn results in a very low environmental foortprint in comparison to other building materials.
Due to its inherent material properties and load carrying capacity, steel makes it possible to have large spans with slender construction. The slender design optimises the use of space, saves resources and reduces costs.In addition to that, prefabrication and short assembly times enable an agile construction process, which in turn leads to further cost savings and increases the overall profitability of a project.
Steel also offers a further benefit in terms of flexibility of use. Steel constructions can be easily extended or modified to adapt to changing requirements. This extends the service life of a building, saves costs and makes a further contribution to sustainability.

Sustainable Living with SALCOS® Structural Steel
The Green Steel Home is an innovative living concept that combines sustainability and modern construction methods. It is based on a self-supporting steel construction that allows maximum flexibility in interior design.
The use of SALCOS® Structural Steel significantly reduces the building's carbon footprint. The combination of steel and prefabricated external panels enables a fast and efficient construction method that is both environmentally and economically sound. The concept also offers high energy efficiency, due to the integration of modern insulation materials and sustainable heating systems.
GLP Europe relies on CO2-reduced steel construction with SALCOS® Structural Steel
The real estate company GLP Europe, which operates in Europe, is clearly focusing on reducing CO2 emissions and thus improving the overall balance of its buildings when expanding its portfolio.
For the new construction of a logistics hall in Lelystad in the Netherlands, this was achieved with the help of beams made of SALCOS® structural steel. The steel construction company IQstaal B.V. created an impressive steel structure covering around 38,000 square meters, which not only meets the high quality standards but also the requirements for a future-oriented and resource-saving construction method.
How Peiner Träger shapes the Kö-Bogen II
Kö-Bogen II in Düsseldorf stands out not only for its impressive green façade, but also for its innovative steel construction.
The steel structure of the building plays a central role in anchoring the plant troughs, which are supported every two meters by massive steel beams. The mullion and transom glass façade on the east and south sides of the building is particularly striking, creating a modern and open architecture.
The combination of steel and glass gives the building an elegant aesthetic as well as stability.
An architectural landmark with a unique ski slope
The Amager Bakke waste incineration plant, also known as CopenHill, is an outstanding building in Copenhagen. In addition to its function as an energy-efficient waste recycling plant, which converts 400,000 tons of waste into electricity and district heating every year, it has a unique ski slope on its roof.
The construction is based on a stable steel structure in which Peiner Träger plays a supporting role. Our beams provide the necessary structure and load-bearing capacity to support the ski slope and the world's highest artificial climbing wall with a height of 85 meters.
The Nuremberg exhibition hall relies on Peiner Träger
The exhibition hall in Nuremberg is characterized by its sophisticated steel construction, which allows a spacious and open room design. Our beams form the structural backbone of the hall and ensure optimum load distribution, so that wide-span, column-free areas could be realized. By using our high-quality steel profiles, it was possible to create a modern, functional architecture that meets the requirements of flexible trade fair events.
The combination of precise engineering technology and efficient use of materials makes the steel construction of the exhibition hall a technically sophisticated solution for large-scale event venues. Thanks to the robust construction, the halls offer ideal conditions for a wide range of events - from international trade fairs to large-scale events.
The platform extension at the station of the future in Bern
The platform extension at the Bern station of the future is a major infrastructure project that will make the station fit for increasing passenger numbers. A central component of the extension is the steel construction, involving the use of Peiner Träger. They provide the necessary load-bearing capacity and stability to safely support the extended platforms. Thanks to their precise workmanship, they enable efficient construction that can withstand both static and dynamic loads.
Steel construction in the Berlin Velodrom
The ceiling construction of the Velodrom in Berlin is an impressive example of modern engineering. It extends over a large span and offers a support-free architecture, which was made possible by a precise steel construction method. Peiner Träger play a decisive role here, as they bear the immense load of the structure and at the same time guarantee a light but stable construction. Their special arrangement ensures a balanced load distribution, giving the roof its distinctive shape and creating optimal conditions for the interior. This construction combines functionality with an elegant design that makes the velodrome an architectural highlight.
The transformation of construction industry: sustainable transformation for a climate-friendly future
The term 'sustainability' has evolved from a trend to become the most important guiding principle in the construction industry. These developments are based on the increasingly visible consequences of climate change and the growing awareness of climate protection.
In response to these challenges, both society and politicians have set ambitious targets. One such example is the European Green Deal, in which the EU has committed to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 through the Fit for 55 package.
The political discourse in the construction industry is increasingly focused on the need for a sustainable transformation of construction industry. This transformation offers new opportunities for green innovation and helps to ensure a livable future for the generations to come.
Circular Economy
The circular economy is a fundamental concept in sustainability, applicable to the entire economic system and its individual sectors.
This approach aims to maximise the use of existing resources and minimise waste by recycling or reusing materials. This significantly reduces the carbon footprint as well as saves costs.
At Peiner Träger GmbH, recycling is part of our everyday practice. By using 100% steel scrap, we utilise existing raw materials and thus make a significant contribution to conserving resources.
Regulatory
Political measures to regulate sustainable construction include laws and regulations that promote energy efficiency, environmental compatibility and conservation of resources.
These include building certification, building regulations and programmes to support more sustainable building projects. They aim to drive sustainable transformation of the construction industry and combat climate change.
C2C Impact Partner
38 % of global CO2 emissions come from the construction sector. The transformation to a sustainable construction industry is unavoidable. We not only want to change the industry, but also make a positive contribution to climate protection.
To do this, we need to take responsibility and find solutions that make ecological and economic sense.
As an impact partner of the C2C NGO, our aim is to shape a sustainable future together with other companies and initiatives and to set an example as a pioneer for a sustainable construction industry.
Building Certification
Building sustainability certifications are a key factor in the evaluation and certification of sustainable buildings. Certification systems such as DGNB, LEED or BREEAM take into account a variety of assessment criterion related to environmental, economic and sociological aspects.
The main component of sustainability certification is the ecological building balance. The focus here is on the environmental product declaration. It provides information on the environmental impact of the building materials being used.
Environmental Product Declaration
The Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) provides detailed and standardised information on the environmental impact of construction materials or building components. It includes quantitative, objective and verified data on resource utilisation, energy use, emissions and waste.
Peiner Träger GmbH is certified with regard to these criteria. Find out more about our environmental product declaration.
