Series of answers to the most common questions about Timber Prague apartment buildings - part 1.st

What are the main advantages of timber buildings?

As a natural material, wood has a positive effect on the human psyche and health. Research shows that it has beneficial effects in terms of air quality, stable humidity and temperature. As a result, houses made of timber co-create a better indoor environment. The widespread use of wood means a minimal carbon footprint, financial savings and reduced construction time as well as higher quality due to standardisation, modularisation and prefabrication. 

In addition, this type of property appreciates in value over time. Since the EU Green Deal, financial flows have been directed towards sustainable investments. In the medium and long term, only sustainable real estate will increase in value; in a few years' time, CO2-polluted real estate will be hard to sell. Timber Prague is not only sustainable through timber construction, in terms of construction wood is the new concrete gold, but is also sustainable in operation through photovoltaics and geothermal energy etc.
