About Us

Performance Buildings AG, a technology company based in Switzerland, redefines the way people think about their offices.

Over the past 100 years there have been only two changes in the way companies manage their office buildings: moving from owning to leasing them, and outsourcing building operations. For office space itself, other than the advent of open plan, relatively little has changed.

In today’s IT world, office buildings are poor value for money. Catering, basically, for only three end-user services of providing workpoints, organising and running meetings, and receiving visitors, the processes are so inefficient that corporations often occupy, rent, heat, cool, clean and maintain almost double the conference space they need, while the equivalent of several FTEs are engaged in unnecessary related work.

Using the Performance Buildings^® offering of pbRoom, pbWorkpoint and pbLobby as building blocks, corporations can create a new kind of office based on two guiding principles. One is process automation to utilise space more efficiently and enable employees and their service providers to perform better. The other is that of space sharing within and across corporations to reduce the space footprint while giving workers even more freedom to work when and where they like.

And for every hundred square meters of office space saved, you save 6 tonnes of CO2 per year in a non-air conditioned office and 16 tCO2 in an air-conditioned office. Calculate your office energy emissions with the climatecare.org calculator.

With Performance Buildings^® you can do more with greater comfort and less space. Ready to redefine your office? Please drop us a note.
