Sustainability Award 2024 | ecoturbino Wins Gold in the Austrian Renowned ZiV Award 2024 for Product Category | We Are Thrilled

The ZiV Award, organized by GARTEN+HAUS, recognizes companies and products every year (press release) that set new standards for sustainability and responsibility and contribute to creating a sustainable future.

This award is a special recognition of our commitment to sustainable water technology and confirms that ecoturbino is on the right path to driving positive ecological change.

The ZiV Award embraces the motto “The Future is Responsibility,” a principle deeply rooted in our philosophy. This award highlights companies that actively implement sustainability rather than merely discussing it.

Our product, the ecoturbino shower system, was developed specifically to reduce water consumption during showers by up to 50%—all without compromising comfort.

It is a solution that can drastically reduce daily water usage while being user-friendly, maintenance-free, and easy to install, offering not only sustainability but also climate protection.

Why ecoturbino Makes Sense for Everyone

Our core development goal is to optimize water and energy efficiency.

The 50% reduction in shower water usage with ecoturbino leads directly to lower water consumption, reduced energy for heating water, and less wastewater—significant factors in reducing the ecological footprint.

Many companies are already saving worldwide

Our technology thus contributes to sustainability in three ways: reduced resource consumption, lower CO₂ emissions, and cost savings for consumers.

Compared to other water-saving products, ecoturbino impresses with its simplicity and long-term benefits without maintenance. It also actively supports legionella prevention, enhancing hygiene in both private and public showers.

Certified Sustainability and Quality

The quality and safety of our technology are essential to us. ecoturbino is certified by both TÜV Austria and the Austrian Eco-Label—two independent institutions representing the highest standards in environmental and consumer safety.

These certifications emphasize the added value ecoturbino offers its users. Thanks to the high quality and proven effectiveness of our products, we are also committed to safety and hygiene, an important benefit for many hotels, public facilities, and households.

With the principle “Not just talking, but acting responsibly!” the ZiV Award sets a standard for companies actively combating climate change and creating sustainable alternatives for everyday life.

The ZiV Award winners—Gold, Silver, or Bronze—are selected based on stringent criteria evaluating sustainability, innovation, and long-term impact. ecoturbino impressed the jury with its clear vision and practical effectiveness, serving as an example of how technology can contribute to sustainability.
