MT Højgaard Holding A/S Announces New Construction Project
MT Højgaard Holding’s business unit MT Højgaard Danmark has reached an exciting agreement with Grundfos to construct a modern domicile spanning 13,000 square meters in Bjerringbro. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in providing a new home for the company's operations.
Details of the New Domicile
As of 2023, MT Højgaard Danmark had already entered into a preliminary agreement for the project. This was contingent upon revisions to the district planning, which have now been successfully completed, thus rendering the contract unconditional.
Design and Sustainability Goals
The planned domicile will feature five stories and is designed to accommodate up to 660 employees. This building will be a part of a comprehensive campus initiative that Grundfos is designing for the surrounding area. A central focus of this project is to achieve a minimal climate footprint. The goal is to have the building certified at the DGNB Platin level and also meet stringent LEED Platinum standards. Renowned AART architects have created the design, with Niras serving as the engineering consultant for this venture.
Timeline for Construction
Construction activities are slated to commence in the first quarter of 2025, with the anticipated completion expected by the second quarter of 2027. This schedule underscores MT Højgaard's commitment to delivering innovative construction solutions within an efficient timeframe.
Leadership Comments on the Project
Carsten Lund, the CEO of MT Højgaard Danmark, expressed enthusiasm about the project, stating, “We are pleased that we have been selected to construct Grundfos’ new domicile, where our own production, including within foundations, shell structures, and soil and concrete, will play a key role in the construction process. The project has been in process for a long period of time, and we are proud to be able to add this to our order book. We are looking forward to a close cooperation with Grundfos on the project.”
Impact on Future Prospects
This significant project is expected to have a positive impact on MT Højgaard Holding’s financial outlook for 2025.
