Wienerberger also has engaged in Habitat’s advocacy efforts with the aim to increase awareness of housing problems and advocate for better policies in Central and Eastern Europe. Throughout the years our partnership has broadened its commitment through inclusion of Tondach and Pipelife subsidiary companies for roof and pipe products. The latest partnership calls for Wienerberger to construct or renovate more than 300 homes and help many more people through influencing housing policies in the region.
