The Passive House: communication Two phases of communication • First phase – Construction • Outlining where and how polyurethanes are used and why they are best • Outlining cost vs. savings expected • Second phase – Living in a passive house • Outlining sustainability of house • Outlining actual savings • Outlining life in a passive house • Focusing on comfort and versatility
Second Driver: Retailer & brand owner outreach • Continue one-on-one meetings and relationship building • Based on updated de-selection strategy/coordination PU Sustainability Cluster • Collect information, understand concerns • New material – Handout for the retailers and brand owners for polyurethanes • Hybrid document (Brochure/factsheet) including issues such as migration and emission • Plain english summary of 2011 study on TDI • New online activity: a blog, talking about end user products made out of PU
Energy efficiency study • Need for a study* that shows cost efficiency of insulation installation • „Way forward“ solutions for policymakers in an increasingly green legislative framework • Study would be driver for media coverage, outreach on energy efficiency and possibly dinner debate or event *Cooperation of ISOPA‘s Sustainability cluster and PU Europe
