    Sustainability

    Sustainability through extended lifespan

    RISEStålbyggnadsinstitutet

    Renovation, surface protection and reinforcement of metal and concrete is one of the most complex fields of work that exists. RISE Research Institutes of Sweden (formerly Korrosionsinstitutet and CBI Betonginstitutet) has calculated that the deterioration of metal and concrete costs over 200 billion SEK every year – and there are demonstrably billions to be saved by using the Right Technology, in the Right Place and in the Right Way in Time.

    Lower environmental impact from renovation vs new construction

    60%

    Reduced climate impact when the building frame is preserved

    Circular construction
    IVL Svenska Miljöinstitutet

    A study from Linköping University shows that renovation instead of new construction can result in up to 80 percent lower environmental impact. Numbers from IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute show that if the structural frame of buildings is preserved, climate impact can be reduced by 60 percent. Hear it for yourself in the interview with Sandra Moberg and Johanna Andersson from IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, whose calculations and studies show that preserving and renovating existing buildings is more sustainable – both economically and environmentally – than building new.
