Lunch seminar

Wood vs. concrete - Welcome to the report release of the first part of the study!

What is the most sustainable choice of frame from a holistic perspective, if factors such as biodiversity and other environmental impact categories are also taken into account in the life cycle analysis? To find out, Sveafastigheter initiated a study based on two "similar" apartment buildings they will build in Vallentuna. One with a wooden frame and the other with a concrete frame. Plant is the report author of the study and presents the results. A warm welcome!

  • Part 2: Methodological development on biodiversity and in-depth study (report author: IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute)
  • Part 3: How does the working environment differ on the two construction sites?
