Plant and Prodikt focus on different aspects of the construction industry’s digital ecosystem. Prodikt, a division of BIMobject AB, organizes and makes available quality-assured product and environmental data. Plant develops software that helps industry stakeholders calculate, compare, and reduce the climate impact of construction projects.
“The construction industry doesn’t need more isolated systems. It needs better infrastructure that allows information to flow between manufacturers, platforms, and users. Now, manufacturers’ product data has yet another clear and practical application in Plant, Sweden’s market-leading climate calculation platform,” says Rasmus Ekberg, co-founder of Prodikt and commercial director at BIMobject AB.
Greater Development Capabilities at Plant
Plant is used for climate calculations at every stage of the construction process and draws on all types of data, including BIM models. With just a few clicks, users can compare sketches, materials, and construction systems to see how different decisions affect the project’s carbon footprint.
Through this partnership, Plant’s customers—including Skanska, Peab, and Vasakronan—will gain access to more products, more environmental data points, and more detailed information about each product. This provides a broader basis for climate calculations and paves the way for continued development in areas such as circularity.
“Access to high-quality, up-to-date product data is essential for producing accurate climate calculations. Through Prodikt, we can scale access to the information our users need, while also devoting even more resources to developing Plant. This creates a stronger overall offering for the market,” says Pelle Tunell, CEO and founder of Plant.
Product information reaches more construction projects
Since its launch in 2021, Prodikts’ mission has been to make manufacturers’ product information available where it creates the most value—in the right format, at the right time, and within the systems used by industry professionals.
Through the integration with Plant, the product information structured in Prodikt reaches more construction projects. At the same time, the industry’s data flows are strengthened, and Prodikt solidifies its position as the market’s leading service for intelligent product data.
“Plants’ software will now be the ideal choice for many of our project clients’ work with climate calculations. We have great confidence in this partnership and in both parties continuing to hone their capabilities in their respective fields,” Rasmus Ekberg continues.
