BÜLOW TOWER GOES GREEN

By actively undertaking measures to improve energy efficiency, Bülow Tower is being transformed into an environmentally sustainable building while keeping operating costs at their lowest possible level. The application for LEED Existing Building certification has
been filed with a view of achieving a silver level – however the building may even be granted the gold level according to recent information.

The following measures have been implemented in 2012 and 2013:

- Installation of new chiller
- Dismantling of the cooling tower
- Replacement of the air humidification system
- Provision for a chilled ceiling system
- Optional room-by-room climate control
- Renovation of the building management system
- Use of potable / fire extinguisher water
- Fire protection measures

OUR CONTRIBUTION TO THE FUTURE -
BÜLOW TOWER PURCHASES ITS OWN RAINFOREST

We have purchased a 700 square metre section of rainforest so that we can help protect one of the most important and valuable habitats on earth. The rainforest is both renowned for its enormous biodiversity and acts as the green lung for our planet.

Our section of the rainforest is located in the Loreto region of Peru and is permanently protected by N-Projects S.A.C. Peru. Our involvement here is not just some sort of sponsorship. Rather, we have actually acquired ownership of this section of the rainforest. Thus a huge circle of co-owners has been created that is actively and powerfully working to bring an end to the activities of logging companies, the timber mafia and poachers. The area is also protected by a contractual clause that prohibits any forestry or agricultural usage of the land.

Moreover, N-Projects S.A.C. Peru carries out regular monitoring of the reserve. This is accomplished through inspections and the involvement of the local population.

The reserve:
The current rainforest reserve covers an area of exactly 261,000 square metres, which breaks down into exactly 5,222 plots of 50 square metres each, and is located in the Loreto region of the Maynas province, Iquitos district of Peru.
