Case Study - CO₂mpare - A carbon footprint calculator

Client

wienerberger, one of the leading providers of solutions for the entire building envelope.

Objective

wienerberger sought a digital solution to showcase and compare the CO₂ footprint of various wall setups based on a study conducted with EPEA. The goal was to provide an engaging, interactive tool that communicates their sustainability efforts and empowers users to make informed decisions.

Solution

twigbit partnered with wienerberger to develop CO₂mpare, an interactive online tool that visualizes and compares the environmental impact of different wall systems. You can explore the tool here.

The project followed a structured approach:

1. Specification Workshop: We kicked off the project with a comprehensive workshop to understand the study's data and align on project goals, technical requirements, and user experience.
2. Design Iterations: In two focused design cycles, we refined the tool's interface to ensure clarity, usability, and alignment with wienerberger's branding.
3. Implementation: Our team developed the tool using robust web technologies, ensuring optimal performance and an engaging user experience.

Results

• Created a user-friendly interface that communicates complex sustainability data effectively.
• Enhanced wienerberger’s position as a sustainability leader in the construction industry.
• Delivered a scalable and maintainable solution with ongoing support from twigbit.

Ongoing Support

We continue to collaborate with wienerberger, providing updates, performance optimizations, and ensuring the tool evolves to meet user and business needs.
