In episode 36 of the Bao Podcast, we introduce you to Pieter-Jan Loyens, the Managing Director of Encon. This is an agency, based in Bilzen, that supports companies with creative and innovative solutions in their transition to greater sustainability.
They are distinguished by their unique combination of ecology and economy, linking environmental awareness with cost savings and profitability for their customers. In recent years, they have built a strong market position with this approach.
Perhaps one of their most remarkable projects is their own headquarters in Bilzen, Infinity. It is considered one of the most sustainable office buildings in Europe. With several sustainability certifications such as LEED and BREEAM, the design serves as a showcase for innovative technologies and sustainable architecture.
What makes Encon fairly unique is that we not only advise companies on sustainability, but also guide them in its implementation. This kind of bussiness model also brings a certain complexity, but at the same time makes it very challenging and interesting.
