AMF Fastigheter partners with Prodikt to accelerate work on emissions calculations

AMF Fastigheter has signed an agreement with BIMobject subsidiary Carbonzero AB to use the digital sustainability platform Prodikt. With the help of Prodikt, AMF Fastigheter will be able to make more precise calculations of the climate footprint of its construction projects. In doing so, the company is taking yet another step towards achieving its ambitious climate goals.

In 2019, AMF Fastigheter joined the Science Based Targets initiative and has set clear emissions targets in line with the Paris Agreement's 1.5 degree target. Among other things, starting two years ago, emission calculations are produced early in construction projects to illustrate how different choices affect the emission of greenhouse gases, and climate declarations are also created at the end of a project. The partnership with Prodikt will accelerate and quality-assure the company's work with emission calculations and reducing emissions.

“Collaborations like this are what enable us to achieve our climate goals. We know that our tenant improvements account for the largest part of our emissions. Improving our process for calculating emissions will provide a better understanding of the impact that decisions made during the construction process have on the climate. It helps us make informed decisions and ultimately achieve our climate goals”, says Michael Eskils, Sustainability Manager at AMF Fastigheter.

Through the use of data-based sustainability information down to a product level, the Prodikt platform enables precise calculation of the climate footprint of each material choice – and entire construction projects.

AMF Fastigheter will use Prodikt to calculate the climate footprint of construction projects and tenant improvements. The hope is also to, through a close dialogue with the tenants, highlight the impact of various material choices and decisions regarding tenant improvements to also reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.

“We are excited to work systematically with an innovative property developer like AMF Fastigheter. The expanded partnership is completely in line with our strategy to support construction companies and property developers in making resource-efficient, informative and quality-assured life cycle calculations in their projects. Only then can we optimize decision making and involve all actors in the contruction process”, says Rasmus Ekberg, CEO and co-founder, Prodikt.
