In times of climate change, it is essential for housing companies to address the impact of their own business activities. With around 53,000 residential units, our GWH building portfolio is a significant lever for effective climate protection. We have therefore developed a decarbonization strategy. This describes our specific contribution to a climate-friendly housing portfolio.

From energy efficiency in existing buildings through energy-efficient modernisation and new construction to KfW Standard 55 to the use of renewable energies and storage technologies, we are gradually implementing measures for greater climate protection.

Together, we can create affordable and climate-friendly housing.

Apartments alone are not enough. As a housing company, we must promote and help shape social interaction and the quality of life in our large GWH housing estates.

Our neighbourhood development therefore looks at all the groups that characterize our GWH estates and creates suitable offers. Together with social partners, we create an attractive and needs-oriented living environment in constant dialog with our tenants. In addition to designing the living environment, we work with charitable partners to develop social infrastructures that provide support in everyday life. In research projects, we are scientifically investigating the topic of „quality of life in large housing estates“.

Together, we can create liveable neighborhoods.

As an employer of more than 500 employees, we have a duty and responsibility to ensure safe, healthy and fair working conditions where we highlight and value the individual potential of people at GWH.

Driven by our corporate value of "fairness", we proactively involve our employees and thus strengthen inclusive and equitable cooperation. To achieve this, we rely on a compatibility- and life-phase-conscious corporate culture that meets the requirements of today's working environment. Since 2009, we have been undergoing the berufundfamilie audit, which helps us to improve.

Together, we can create meaningful work.

Our strategic focus on sustainability creates the basis for us at GWH to remain successful and sustainable in the future. Through long-term investments, we maintain the financial strength that enables us to invest in the sustainable development of our Group.

This is how we shape a good residential portfolio with the necessary innovative strength and leverage the potential of digitalization in building technology and our business processes in a targeted manner. Our compliance system also helps us to strengthen economic and fair cooperation along the GWH value chain as a foundation.

Together, we can shape future-oriented business.
