Sustainability Strategy

We are considerate and aware of our impact on climate and environment, and, for the resources we use, at Nordstern, we therefore follow a sustainability strategy that will help us reduce our negative impact as much as possible.

Our sustainability strategy builds upon three main areas:

To become carbon neutral towards 2050 via ambitious reduction targets,
To contribute actively to making buildings more sustainable,
To attract and develop the talents of the future.

In the video below, we review our strategy and the goals we are working towards 2030.

Initiatives for a Responsible Construction Process at Nordstern Construction Sites

At Nordstern, we are committed to reducing resource consumption and minimising the environmental impact of our construction projects. As part of our strategy for responsible construction, we have established a range of concrete measures to ensure more efficient and sustainable management of materials and resources.

Construction sites play a key role in this effort, which is why we have implemented standards focusing on waste management, energy consumption, and materials.

To support this, our employees use a tailored overview of the measures to be implemented on-site. This serves as a guide, outlining how various initiatives can be put into practice in each specific case.

Several initiatives involve collaboration with regular suppliers; however, alternative solutions may be chosen if they offer more advantageous terms. The key is to maintain a consistent effort to reduce environmental impact and promote responsible construction—regardless of the project’s size or scope.

By adhering to these initiatives, we contribute to buildings that prioritise resource efficiency and the responsible use of materials.

„CPH Porthouse is one of the three DGNB-certified buildings we have built at Sundmolen in Copenhagen. Nordstern was responsible for both the development and construction of the project – a process they handled professionally and properly from start to finish. As a client, we felt confident in Nordstern's handling along the way, and in March 2019 we were pleased to be handed over an almost defect-free building and on time.“
