Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP

In this webinar, you will learn how to use CHIRA from the cyclos-HTP (CHI) Institute to determine the recyclability of packaging in a PPWR-compliant manner. It will be demonstrated how the existing CHIRA data is used to assess the Carbon Footprint quickly, efficiently and reliably using PACFAST from the Fraunhofer IBP.

Are existing or planned buildings sufficiently protected against moisture? This can be calculated using the WUFI® Pro software from the Fraunhofer Institute for Building Physics IBP, which has now established itself as the standard for moisture protection assessment. Version 7.0 draws on the experience of 30 years of pioneering work in hygrothermal simulation.

With the Bleed Air Contamination Simulator (BACS), researchers at the Fraunhofer IBP can artificially simulate fume events on the ground, deliberately contaminating the air inside the testing unit with oils and deicing fluids and then studying the polluted air. 

Numerous Fraunhofer institutes are researching key technologies, which combine to empower a climate-neutral building sector. Two initiatives of the Fraunhofer IBP are highlighted in the 4/2024 issue of the Fraunhofer magazine: Dr. Sebastian Dittrich provides insights into his research on concretes and Dr. Simon Schmidt talks about the BAU-DNS flagship project.

Fraunhofer IBP has developed a series of interesting products that involved the entire expertise of its specialist departments. If you are interested in further solutions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
