The Renggli AG Switzerland specialises in making energy efficient building with wood and is amongst the pioneers of the Minergie-Building-Standards.

Sustainable Timber Construction

From residential property and schools through to multi-storey offices and flats, advances in recent years have opened up almost unlimited possibilities for using timber in construction. Fire-prevention, noise reduction and durability issues have all been successfully solved. Renggli, for many years an innovator in timber engineering, has shown the advantages of this material in terms of quality, cost-control and sustainability.

The continuing increased pressure on the building industry to take into account issues of climate change, energy-efficiency and resource usage have inevitably lead to the oldest building material – wood. Renggli has invested much time and know-how in advancing future-orientated construction technologies. Modern timber processes have set architects free to explore aspects of aesthetics and cost-efficiency through the re-discovery of wood – appealing yet sensible.

Wood …. Naturally

From the dawn of humanity we have been building with wood. Many generations have appreciated the value of its natural properties and general warmth. This renewable resource has many advantages over other materials; it is easy to work with, naturally

Swiss Tradition and Inventiveness

Combine these properties with innovative Swiss engineering and attention to quality and the result is astounding. Renggli has been pioneering CAD design and NC precision manufacturing in timber constructions for two decades. Getting the details right is the basis for creating buildings in a multitude of forms, from offices, commercial facilities, schools and multi-purpose, through to a huge variety of residential dwellings.

Standardised Pre-fabrication

Modern timber constructions are not just high-tech. Pre-fabrication in a controlled environment makes it possible for Renggli to monitor every aspect of the manufacturing process. This assures adherence to all company and regulatory standards, materials delivered to the construction site arrive in perfect condition. The advantages of pre-fabrication including significantly reduced construction schedules by largely removing the influence of the weather and less on-site administrative workload due to fewer logistics challenges are just two of the ways to avoid various “losses”while also profiting from earlier revenue.

High-Quality and Energy Efficiency

Meeting the needs of the highest levels of engineering efficiency is what Renggli’s construction system is conceived for. Maintaining support strength while reducing dead-weight makes it possible to construct multi-storey structures featuring a wealth of diverse materials and - a speciality of Renggli – the roof extension. Future generations will be grateful for progress we make today.


Partnership is the Key

The goal is always to produce the best result, be this by partnered with research organizations to improve not just the production processes, or consultants and suppliers to refine architectural and custom design and engineering services. This approach of working with the best-in-class makes a valuable contribution to the active protection of the environment and the correct use of resources. Renggli makes its know-how available to architects and developers for feasibility studies, structural concepts, regulatory tests, cost and sizing studies and of course as reliable implementation partner.
