Certified Product Recognition awarded to Metal Technology by Dr Wolfgang Feist

We were delighted to attend the Passive Product Certification: Market Advantage, Performance & Opportunity event hosted by the Passive House Association of Ireland in Dublin. The event was inspiring from start to finish, with insightful sessions delivered by leading Passive House experts including Helena McElmeel, Ann-Marie Fallon, Caroline Ashe Brady, Dr Wolfgang Feist, Tomas O’Leary, Soraya López García and John O’Connell.

A key highlight of the evening was the presentation of Certified Product Recognition to Metal Technology’s Connor Corry by Dr Wolfgang Feist, physicist and founder of the Passive House concept, for four aluminium façade systems certified by the Passive House Institute. It was particularly encouraging to hear Dr Feist address and debunk long-standing misconceptions around aluminium systems. His insights reinforced that, through considered design and the correct specification of materials, aluminium can successfully meet the rigorous demands of Passive House certification.

This aligns with Metal Technology’s commitment to sustainability, combining high-performance thermal efficiency with the use of ultra-low carbon aluminium billets, helping to drive the transition towards zero-emission buildings. The evening concluded with a compelling fireside discussion between Dr Wolfgang Feist and Jeff Colley leaving the room inspired, motivated, and eager for what comes next.
