Productivity
The new buildings offer modern, flexible workspaces that boost operational efficiency and expand capacity. They are designed to reduce energy consumption, bolster security, and integrate new technology. By replacing outdated facilities, these premises will streamline critical public services and optimize logistics. Moreover, the advanced digital environment and scalable infrastructure will support a growing workforce.

Environmental
The first three projects are NEB-eligible. All projects align with NIB’s climate target for real estate. No protected areas are identified close to the sites, the closest nature reserve, Rya Åsar, is 3 km away from the district court of Borås.
