The Company’s Operation is Driven By Green Energy
In recent years, we have enhanced the company’s sustainability efforts by creating a modern, completely energy-self-sufficient factory. When we introduced the latest technological equipment, we paid great attention to energy-saving measures, as well as our energy production. Today we ourselves produce all the energy necessary for the production of prefabricated buildings at our headquarters with the help of water, sun, and woody biomass. The numerous awards received, to which we are the first in Slovenia to add the Green Star certificate, confirm our pioneering role in this field.
Sustainability as a Competitive Advantage
Sustainability has been part of our strategic directions for decades, which define that the company produces only energy-saving and sustainable products in the form of state-of-the-art energy-saving facilities. By receiving the Green Star certificate, Jelovica has once again strengthened its position as a leading exporter of low-energy prefabricated buildings to the most demanding European markets. There is no doubt that Jelovica, as the first Slovenian to receive the Green Star certificate, will become even more recognizable as a leading Slovenian company in the field of sustainability, in addition to its more than century-old tradition.
Innovation and providing the highest quality technological products to our customers has been our commitment for over a hundred years and we will continue to do so in the future. At the same time, we will strive to include all our suppliers and partners in the global mindset of sustainable orientation.
