The construction and property sector accounts for a large amount of the climate impact, not least through the use of materials and energy. In Sweden, buildings account for about 40 per cent of energy use and about one fifth of Sweden’s greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing these emissions is a major challenge, but through collaboration and the development of new solutions, we in the industry can contribute to enabling the transition that is needed.
For us, a responsible and ambitious sustainability agenda is a factor for success and a prerequisite for continuing to conduct our business. We work actively on economic, environmental and social sustainability.
