If you've been paying attention, you've probably seen this phrase popping up around the VELUX website and in our email newsletters: Go Solar!
But just what is it all about?
Sustainable Living Through Skylights
Since our inception over 70 years ago, VELUX has always been about utilizing the Earth's most abundant natural resource: daylight. In that time, the world has changed, and it's become more important than ever to live sustainably and opt for renewable resources like sunlight and fresh air.
Once installed, VELUX skylights provide a huge step forward for creating green-friendly homes and buildings. According to the US Green Building Council's website, "a green home uses less energy, water, and natural resources; creates less waste; and is healthier for the people living inside." In this way, green homes and buildings stand to positively affect our environment for future generations.
You probably don't need us to tell you that building owners, occupants, and code officials are becoming increasingly sensitive to energy use, both in terms of environmental effectiveness and cost. But with skylights, you're able to offer them a solution that's not only green and cost-effective but stylish and luxurious as well.
Now Is The Best Time To Go Solar
Our solar-powered products will always be an environmentally friendly lighting alternative, but now more than ever is the best time to encourage your clients to Go Solar and incorporate solar technologies into your floor plans!
