easics is situated just on the outer ring of the centre of Leuven, at a 5′ walk from bus- and train station. Situated in a sustainable and energy-efficient office building with an E-level of <50, this contributes to the objectives of Climate Neutral Leuven (KNL 2030). The City of Leuven wants to achieve a net-zero CO2 emission by 2030 by means of living, moving and working differently. This office building already helps to take a big step in the right direction as far as accommodation is concerned: soil energy storage, heat pumps, climate ceilings, triple glazing in well-dimensioned smaller windows, automatic sun blinds, thorough insulation and green roofs. These green roofs provide heat and water absorption.

We try to motivate our personnel by giving them the opportunity to choose an e-bike as part of their end-of-the-year bonus. We motivate them in taking the bike whenever they can. People can also enjoy nature during breaks by taking a walk, a bike ride or a jogging exercise. The building offers bicycling storage, showers and a cloakroom.

We sort packaging waste as much as possible and try to avoid unnecessary printing.
