Wall of ideas

Besides the commitment to engineering and our unique expertise, our main motivation in work is our faith and personal mindset. We believe that our work not only meets interests and aesthetical expectations of our clients but also serves the sustainable development of our environment. This belief and commitment drives us in European and global research projects where new directions and possibilities can be found. We participate actively in the work of scientific and professional organisations that support the worldwide promotion of sustainable construction.

As part of our sustainable building consultancy, we have always put particular emphasis on the well-being of occupants. ABUD is now among the first companies in the region to provide WELL-certifications for buildings.

Our colleague, Zsófia Bélafi represented us at Annex 66 and 69 Symposium, held between 15-18 May 2017, at the Technical University in Lyngby, Denmark.
