Climate considerations integrated right from the construction stage.

In the Badskon project in Hyllie, MKB builds 40 rental homes with unique climate-neutral insulation made of hemp fiber.

By replacing a single product, the climate impact of the entire project is reduced by up to five percent. Just by going green.

MKB will use hemp fiber insulation that has about two-thirds less emissions than traditional insulation, while also sequestering much more carbon than it emits, making it beyond climate-neutral.

All houses are eco-labelled with the Swan Ecolabel and offer a healthy and sustainable living environment with good operating economy.
