Positive Home

Positive solutions for home & buildings

The Solar Impulse Foundation and its partner ADEO are joining forces to accelerate the adoption of clean and profitable solutions which make home a positive place to live.

01. Collaboration

We make home a positive place to live

A positive home is a healthy home, comfortable, that reflects who we are, where we feel good.

  1. It’s a home that takes care of its inhabitants, of the neighbours and of the environment.
  2. It is a high-efficient home which consumes few resources and produces energy.
  3. It’s a home where we live in safety, an evolving home that adapts to different situations throughout life.

02. Pillars

Main pillars of positive products

  • Safe for people and the planet: by developing the least harmful products for health and environment, by acting either on the composition, banishing or limiting controverted substances, focusing in particular on the indoor air quality, reducing packaging waste, etc.
  • Made to last: by helping customers to keep and use their items longer, through a proper care, repair or other alternative solution. It reduces the need to permanently buy more new tools.
  • Made from responsible and recycled resources: by reducing the extraction of new raw materials and by favoring the use of sustainable, natural, recycled resources at any time possible.
  • Bring sustainable functions and features: by saving energy and water, by reducing waste production when using the proper tools. By educating customers to choose products with less environmental & social footprint.
  • Produced responsibly: by accompanying workers, suppliers and their factories in order to support them, respect their living conditions while limiting their impact on the environment.

03. Benefits

Benefits of a positive home

  • Environmental: the buildings represent 20% of the greenhouse gas emissions in the world (IPCC datas). It is possible to reduce CO2 emissions by prioritizing efforts to reduce consumption and reviewing our uses, by developing innovative and efficient solutions for the building envelope (insulation and windows, doors), and by implementing solutions based on renewable energies.
  • Economic: housing, one of a family's priority expenses, can represent 20 to 30% of disposable income. By choosing efficient solution based on their durability and efficiency can make the difference. Thanks to solar panels, smart insulation, aerothermal heating system, biomass etc., less energy and water resources are used and therefore it is economically beneficial.
  • Social: the COVID crisis has demonstrated the social and patrimonial value of housing. The house, the apartment are the last refuge of the family. Positive home helps improve the quality of life, the well-being and the comfort of inhabitants, it adapts to their needs and their evolution over the years.
