How ÅBN's sensor helps you achieve (and comply with) a DGNB gold requirement

Why is indoor climate important for DGNB Gold?

DGNB Gold certification places high demands on the socio-cultural and functional quality of buildings, and the indoor climate is central here. The requirements include everything from thermal comfort to lighting, acoustics and air quality – and must be documented.

The SKYEN indoor climate sensor from ÅBN has been developed for exactly this purpose and measures:

• CO₂

• Temperature

• Humidity

• Noise

• Light

• TVOC (volatile organic compounds)

These six parameters cover the core DGNB gold requirements .

How SKYEN helps you meet DGNB gold requirements

Mandatory requirements

DGNB Gold requires that the building meets a number of fixed requirements within indoor climate. With the SKYEN indoor climate sensor you can document the following:

• Thermal comfort: SKYEN measures both temperature and humidity and helps you ensure stable and comfortable conditions all year round.

• Air quality: CO₂ and TVOC sensors make it possible to ensure good ventilation and limit pollution from materials and people.

• Acoustic comfort: Sound measurement ensures that noise levels do not affect well-being and efficiency – important in offices and schools.

• Visual comfort: Light measurement ensures that both natural and artificial light meet standards.

Voluntary criteria

To achieve DGNB Gold, you must achieve a certain overall score – and voluntary criteria also count here. With SKYEN you can:

• Optimize ventilation strategies via real-time data

• Document improvements in the user environment

• Integrate data into your DGNB documentation and reports

Maintenance and behavioral insights – an advantage of the CLOUD

A DGNB Gold certification is not just a snapshot – it requires that the building's quality be maintained over time.

With the SKYEN indoor climate sensor you get:

• Automatic and continuous monitoring

• Alarms at limit values ​​so you can act quickly

• Visualization that engages users and staff

• Long-term data series that can be included in evaluation and reporting

This ensures that you comply with DGNB gold requirements year after year – and creates a building that lives up to its sustainable potential.

Do you want to achieve the DGNB Heart? The SKY shows the way

DGNB Heart sets even higher standards for indoor climate and well-being. The focus is solely on people – and the building must promote health, well-being and comfort.

The SKYEN indoor climate sensor supports you with:

• Monitoring of all relevant parameters for DGNB Heart

• Clear and easily accessible visualization of data

• Possibility of API integration to FM systems

When well-being and health need to be documented and improved, SKYEN is a solid and scalable solution.

FAQ: DGNB Gold and indoor climate sensors

What are the most important DGNB gold requirements for indoor climate?
The most important requirements are related to temperature, humidity, CO₂, noise, light and air quality. SKYEN measures all six areas.

How does SKYEN help with DGNB certification?
The CLOUD documents performance, alerts you to deviations and makes it easy to analyze and report data.

What is the difference between DGNB Gold and DGNB Heart?
DGNB Heart focuses exclusively on indoor climate and health – and sets even stricter requirements than DGNB Gold.

Can the SKY be used as documentation in DGNB reports?
Yes, SKYEN delivers continuous and validable data that can be used in DGNB reporting.

Should indoor climate be measured continuously?
Yes – it is essential to be able to demonstrate that the building meets the requirements over time. With SKYEN, this happens automatically.
