The climate impact from the production of building materials is high. An important piece of the puzzle in our work to reduce climate emissions and contribute to a more sustainable society is to focus more on reuse as part of our work in circular construction.

One of our high sustainability goals is to halve emissions per built square metre (Scope 3 per GFA) in our property development by 2030 and we are working systematically to achieve this. To scale up the work with reuse, we have:

• established a reuse strategy,

• established the Reuse Hub in Solna Business Park three years ago as part of our circular construction initiative. To enable larger volumes and better resource efficiency, we transferred the hub to Ragn-Sells in April 2026. In connection with this, we also became a member of Reboost – an initiative that enables large-scale reuse of building materials through shared logistics, quality assurance and more efficient material flows.

• opened Stockholm's first Reuse Park in Arenastaden that now became a central hub for trees, shrubs and outdoor materials that are to be reused but are awaiting relocation to new sites.
• adopted a reuse target which means that all our remodeling projects must meet a circularity index of at least 20 percent.

In addition to easing the strain on Earth’s resources, lower water consumption also means preparing our business for a future of declining water tables and reduced availability of fresh water.

In 2021, we started work with a quantified goal in order to streamline the follow-up. Our goal is to reduce our water consumption by two per cent each year. The outcome for 2025 was 338 litres per square metre, which is 5 per cent lower than in 2024.
