Property Development for a Sustainable Future
It is a fact that the real estate industry has a significant impact on both people and the environment. Arlandastad Group controls the entire value chain, from land acquisition to the long-term management of completed properties. This gives us a position where, during area development, construction, and operation, we have great opportunities to influence the environment, ecosystems, and climate impact.
To create value and future-proof Arlandastad Group in a sustainable way, we set goals, take initiatives, carry out activities, and measure results and progress. In everything we do, we work systematically and in collaboration with partners and society, acting as both enablers and team players.
With a focus on sustainability, Arlandastad Group develops attractive destinations where businesses can grow, people can meet, and ideas can come to life. Today and in the future.
Step by Step Towards Climate Neutrality and Halved Emissions
The goals for 2030 are clear – climate neutrality and halved emissions from our project operations.
Actively contributing to a climate-neutral and circular construction sector happens in several stages, where material and waste flows, as well as energy consumption, are key. We follow our climate roadmap in collaboration with other stakeholders. Through Klimatarena Stockholm, where we have signed the climate pledge for a climate-neutral construction sector in Stockholm County by 2030, and together with Fossil-Free Sweden, we are working to accelerate the climate transition.
As the goal is to halve emissions from our project operations by 2030, we are actively working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions throughout the entire production chain. This means that when developing land, we take responsibility for natural resources, biodiversity, and water management. To verify and increase our traceability and transparency, we have routines for tracking climate data, system support for sustainability data, and we offer the option to sign green leases.
Our Energy Strategy – A Comprehensive Approach to Energy Issues
The energy question is a large, complex, and fundamental issue. Through our energy strategy, we take a comprehensive approach to energy in order to reduce our own direct climate impact and enable a sustainable transition of the energy system at large.
The goal of our energy strategy is to reduce the fossil footprint, lower costs for our own properties, tenants, and energy-intensive businesses, as well as contribute to the stabilization of the regional power grid.
The cornerstones of our energy strategy
Green Financing Framework – A Guarantee for Green Investments
Adhering to the criteria for green investments demonstrates a clear commitment to sustainable choices. By carefully evaluating projects that support environmental sustainability, such as renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable transportation, and water management, we work strategically within a green financing framework.
People in Focus – Safe and Sustainable Construction Processes
Preventing and minimizing the risk of illness and accidents. Creating safe working environments with high levels of engagement and satisfaction. Ensuring sustainability at all stages of the construction process. We collaborate closely and set clear requirements for both our own employees and our suppliers. Together with our suppliers, we continuously work on setting standards, conducting risk analyses, inspections, and follow-ups.
Through ongoing dialogue, with a focus on people, we ensure that project activities contribute to long-term and sustainable business.
