Sustainable new administrative offices for the Swiss National Science Fund (SNSF) in Bern
Implenia, acting as total contractor, is about to build one of the most sustainable and innovative office buildings in Switzerland: the new SNSF administrative offices in the Bern district of WankdorfCity. This will provide a modern working environment for Switzerland’s most important institution fostering scientific research. The SNSF aims to achieve independent certification for the new building according to the Swiss Sustainable Construction Standard (SNBS) and its platinum quality seal. The energy balance of the building will be improved by using environmentally friendly, durable materials (native timber and recycled concrete). Building work starts in January 2025, and the approximately 350 employees of the SNSF are expected to move into their new workplace in 2027. For more information about the project: snf-wankdorf.ch
