Armin Cosic is AI Engineer at Doka. In this interview, he reveals what his role title really means and what influence he attributes to artificial intelligence in the construction industry.

Doka is taking another important step towards sustainability. In addition to the Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) for formwork products, the CO₂ footprint for scaffolding is also available. Doka customers now have access to PCF data for around 7,000 products.

In an interview with Julia Weber, Head of Sustainability at Doka, we look at the growing importance of carbon footprints and their profound implications for construction companies seeking to achieve ambitious sustainability goals.

The countdown is on. Until March 5, 2023, innovative solutions that make a significant contribution to sustainability in the building lifecycle can be submitted for the Josef Umdasch Research Prize 2023. The winner will have the opportunity to implement the idea in cooperation with Doka's sister company Umdasch Group Ventures.

The Umdasch Group has set itself the goal of linking knowledge, business and values and thus fulfilling the responsibility that both the Umdasch Group and its companies have to society.

What is the idea behind the Umdasch Group’s Sustainability Prize? It is to promote projects that work towards a sustainability strategy and these projects are within the company itself. What started in 2020 is now an annual event. Employees are very enthusiastic and motivated.

Sports not only have an immense impact on your health, they also have a positive effect on well-being. Doka Saudi Arabia has acknowledged this and launched a three-month fitness challenge.
