The climate impact from the production of building materials is high. One of the most important pieces of the puzzle in our work to reduce climate emissions and contribute to a more sustainable society is therefore to focus more on circular construction such as reuse and conscious choice of materials.

One of our high sustainability goals is to halve emissions per built square metre (Scope 3 per GFA) in our property development by 2030 and we are working systematically to achieve this. To scale up the work with reuse, we have:

• established a reuse strategy,

• established the Reuse Hub in Solna Business Park three years ago as part of our circular construction initiative. To enable larger volumes and better resource efficiency, we transferred the hub to Ragn-Sells in April 2026. In connection with this, we also became a member of Reboost – an initiative that enables large-scale reuse of building materials through shared logistics, quality assurance and more efficient material flows.

• opened Stockholm's first Reuse Park in Arenastaden that now became a central hub for trees, shrubs and outdoor materials that are to be reused but are awaiting relocation to new sites.
• adopted a reuse target which means that all our remodeling projects must meet a circularity index of at least 20 percent*.

*The goal means that at least 20 percent of the construction material supplied to a project must be either reused material, material with recycled and/or renewable content.

Building for the future

An example of building for the future is to focus on architectural quality that stands the test of time. Creating environments that can change over time with the help of flexible solutions that make remodeling more efficient, facilitate shared use and enable different areas of use. It is also about creating future conditions for circular material flows in all our projects. We do this by choosing materials with a long service life that can be repaired and dismantled and that are suitable for reuse or material recycling.

The Reuse Hub

The Reuse Hub in Solna Business Park is a physical warehouse of 2,000 square meters with the purpose of temporarily storing reused materials. The reuse hub is an important cornerstone of Fabege's reuse strategy and a prerequisite for scaling up the reuse work. It is often difficult in terms of time to match the supply and demand of reused material in our projects and therefore an intermediate warehouse is needed.

We have engaged an external logistic and dismantling company who takes care of logistics and stocking, but who can also help us with re-use inventory and dismantling if necessary.

In the Reuse Hub, we mainly temporarily store door parts, glass parts, kitchen fittings, suspended ceilings, floors, porcelain, installations and some furniture. All materials are quality checked, marked, cleaned and packaged to be attractive.

Reuse coordinator

Success requires commitment. An important player for the reuse work to function is our reuse coordinator, who acts as the spider in the web.

The reuse coordinator coordinates supply and demand for reused materials in our organisation and ensures that the reuse flow works. The reuse coordinator is also responsible for the functioning of the Reuse Hub and the marketplace.

Digital platform

With the help of Palats - a digital platform for inventory and sales - the handling of reusable materials is facilitated all the way from inventory in one of our properties to use in another property. The reusable product is inventoried and documented, the product's environmental savings are calculated and finally it is published on our digital marketplace for further sale. Users can then easily both see what is available in the Recycling Hub and make the purchase.

The Reuse Park

Fabege has opened Stockholm's first reuse park in Arenastaden, which will become a central hub for reused trees, bushes and outdoor materials waiting to be moved on to new locations.

The Reuse Park is a branch of Fabege's Reuse Hub in Solna Business Park, with the common goal of contributing to a functioning reuse market and reduced climate emissions. In addition, the park is a welcome addition to the outdoor environment along Råsta Strandväg and Evenemangsgatan.
