![Timber Port 4 good reasons for Timber Port](https://www.timber-port.de/content/themes/base_theme/img/multi-ani-image.jpg)
Timber design creates a
lasting feel-good factor
lasting feel-good factor
In the interior, the many natural wooden surfaces and the timber columns and ceiling elements ensure a modern, relaxed working environment and establish health and sustainability in the workplace as the new state of the art. And when the working day is over, the terraces on the 4th floor and rooftop are the perfect place to enjoy a sundowner together.
Timber is fit for the future as a building material. It is renewable, locks up CO₂, bears high loads and has a low self-weight. The timber hybrid construction for Timber Port uses 1,050 cubic metres of wood, which means that around 1,050 tonnes CO₂ are stored inside over the long term.

sustainability
The low-energy concept developed for Timber Port keeps operating costs at a minimum. Using renewable energy, it will fulfil the EU Taxonomy climate goals, the standard for climate-friendly non-residential buildings (KfNWG – EG40) and Gold certification from the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB).

Sustainable
real estate
The EU Taxonomy is a European Commission initiative that aims to fight climate change. Its defined guidelines are expected to drive the transformation towards a green economy. In future, it is likely that only ESG-compliant projects will receive financing.
Timber Port fulfils the criteria of the EU Taxonomy for environmental objective 1 and makes a “substantial contribution towards mitigating climate change”. This means that all aspects of sustainability – protecting the environment (Environmental), social justice (Social) and good governance (Governance) – have been officially confirmed. In addition, facilities have been included to enable tenants to use the building with the greatest possible degree of sustainability.

Optimum
energy mix
The standard for climate-friendly non-residential buildings is achieved by optimizing greenhouse gas emissions throughout the lifecycle, and also by implementing measures during construction and in technical systems to improve energy efficiency and to integrate renewable energies. Timber Port therefore corresponds to the Effizienzhaus 40 Standard (EG 40).

Investing in a
sustainable product
Timber Port is a highly sustainable product, especially due to its timber hybrid design. The building is aiming for official classification according to Article 9 funds within the EU Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR), and is therefore ideally positioned as a sustainable investment product.

A quality seal for
sustainable building
Certifications are a guarantee of sustainability during construction and their strict requirements contribute to future-proofing building projects. Timber Port is aiming for a Gold certificate from the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) for its resource-friendly timber hybrid construction and also for its integrative energy concept and the potential deconstruction of the building.

An intelligent
building
As current studies have shown, the climate change transition will not happen without intelligent buildings. Up to 30% energy can be saved if building technology systems are adapted to how office space is actually used.
An integrative low-energy concept has been developed for Timber Port, with a combination of regenerative energy sources such as photovoltaics with district heating. In Düsseldorf, this kind of heating has a very good primary energy factor as it includes regenerative methods. The aim is to consume the smallest possible amount of energy while achieving the greatest possible degree of self-sufficiency and cost stability.
Solar-generated
electricity
The energy supplied by the sun in one year is more than 10,000 times the amount needed by everybody in the whole world. Using this sheer inexhaustible source of energy not only reduces costs for office tenants, but also makes a valuable contribution towards protecting the climate.
Formerly exclusive to space travel, nowadays converting sunlight into electrical energy is a standard feature of almost every new building. Timber Port provides some of its energy requirements using photovoltaic panels on the roof.

A showroom
of corporate culture
Timber Port offers a total of about 10,000 m² office space on seven storeys. Spacious rooms, natural wooden surfaces and a high proportion of daylight create a healthy and sustainable atmosphere for work.
The new work concept is a megatrend that is fundamentally transforming how work is approached, and offices are changing along with it. Whereas previously workplaces were merely functional, they are increasingly developing into a showroom for the respective corporate culture. In Timber Port, intelligent usage concepts and hybrid models of working are paired with the flexibility that is necessary for room design.

Architecture
Location
Fashionable
harbour location
Architectural highlights such as the famous Gehry buildings have become a popular theme in photos of the neighbourhood. It is therefore unsurprising that hundreds of companies – both national and global – have settled here to enjoy the creative flair.
From dreary commercial site to fashionable lifestyle district – the rapid transformation experienced by Düsseldorf’s Medienhafen is second to none in this state capital.
