Embodied carbon
Selected organic materials are used to reduce the embedded carbon dioxide. For walls and ceilings, usually made of steel with a high proportion of newly manufactured and fossil-based stone wool, wood is used instead for the frame and facade and insulation from Ekolution.
CO2 emissions from operations
Logistics facilities draw a lot of energy. To reduce carbon dioxide emissions from operations, a geothermal heat pump and solar panels are installed on the roof. The plant is also being prepared for the installation of a local energy system, battery storage, to regulate demand peaks from equipment and vehicles.
No additional cost
We are convinced that it is possible to reduce carbon emissions, but it is a little more difficult to do this at no additional cost today. When carbon-friendly materials and technologies reach a larger scale, they do not come with an additional cost.
