Hållbarhetshuset was built on the initiative of
The 1,000-sqm building houses offices, meeting areas and a showroom, thus serving both as an establishment office and as a hub for generating knowledge about the project and reuse.
"There's a lot of interest in constructing buildings from buildings, and we look forward to sharing our experiences. There should be no competition on climate issues - instead, everyone should help to drive the industry forward and contribute to achieving the climate goals," says
This project is just the beginning of a long journey towards greater sustainability.
Hållbarhetshuset consists of 70 per cent reused materials, which means a carbon footprint reduction of 105 tonnes of CO2 compared to if the building had been constructed using new materials.
"Hållbarhetshuset is a pilot project that is attracting a great deal of interest, as the whole industry wants to reduce the carbon footprint of its projects. We look forward to sharing the lessons we've learned with the industry and continuing to reuse on a large scale in the future," says
