The day is divided into three sections:

·      A full technical conference during which we will discuss the main directions of regulations RT2012 and EN 15232 with the participation of an expert of the CSTB (Scientific and Technical Center of the Building industry - France). We will then show how LON® systems can meet these requirements while improving comfort and energy efficiency.

·      Agor@Lon will include 12 workshops to present and exchange information with permanent members of the building industry. These workshops will take place concurrently in three different rooms over four time slots.

·      We will conclude the day with a round table where we will finalize our regulatory texts analysis and where we will discuss the actual landscape that presents itself to the different members of the building industry with research departments, integrators, specialists and teachers.

Breaks and buffet lunch will be provided, aiming to facilitate meetings and exchanges, and to provide opportunities for small group discussions.
