Program

About Nordbygg 2022

Nordbygg event managers Peter Söderberg and Lina Hannwelcome you and outline some of the highlights at this year’s fair.

Health, performance, energy efficiency

New technology paves the way to a better indoor climate “post-covid”. AI control systems are bringing about something of a technological revolution in the installation sector.

Circularity and reuse

The construction sector is busy developing models for a circular economy and large-scale reuse. Carbon footprint will be just as important as price and quality in the future, and Nordbygg 2022 will showcase a raft of good initiatives.

Architecture – materials in focus

How can the construction sector become fossil free and climate neutral by 2030?

The construction and installation sector accounts for one fifth of Sweden’s climate impact. By joining one of Fossil Free Sweden’s roadmaps, the idea is for businesses to strengthen their competitiveness by becoming fossil free or climate neutral. How can Nordbygg’s exhibitors and the rest of the built environment sector contribute?
