NCC's Bold Moves: Revitalizing Helsinki and Visby
August 29, 2024, 1:43 am
NCC is on a mission. The construction giant is breathing new life into two key locations in Finland and Sweden. With ambitious projects underway, they are not just building structures; they are shaping communities.
In Helsinki, a hotel is set to transform. The future Scandic Hotel at Elielinaukio is undergoing a major refurbishment. This isn’t just a facelift; it’s a complete overhaul. The project is valued at approximately SEK 180 million. The hotel will feature 174 rooms, upgraded common areas, and a modern façade. The goal? To create a welcoming space that enhances the guest experience while meeting LEED Gold environmental standards.
NCC’s partnership with Exilion is crucial. Their collaboration began with the refurbishment of Scandic Grand Central. Now, they are continuing this successful relationship. The synergy between the two companies ensures a smooth process. They are committed to meticulous planning and execution.
Energy efficiency is a top priority. The hotel will be designed to consume less energy, reducing its carbon footprint. This is not just about aesthetics; it’s about sustainability. The project aims to set a benchmark for future developments in the area.
Construction kicks off in early September. The completion date is set for autumn 2025. This timeline reflects NCC’s dedication to delivering quality on schedule. The project is a turnkey contract, meaning NCC will handle everything from start to finish.
Meanwhile, in Visby, another exciting venture is taking shape. NCC’s subsidiary, Nybergs Entreprenad, is set to construct a state-of-the-art swim center. This facility will be located next to Solbergabadet, right in the heart of the city. The project carries a hefty price tag of approximately SEK 300 million.
Building in a historic area presents unique challenges. The proximity to the Town Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site, requires careful planning. NCC is well-equipped to navigate these complexities. Their experience in similar projects gives them an edge.
The new swim center will boast a 25-meter pool, a multifunction pool, and a family pool. There will also be a diving pool and a relaxation area. A café and locker rooms will complete the facility. This center is designed to cater to the community’s needs, promoting health and wellness.
The planning phase has been extensive. Now, the project is ready to move forward. Construction is set to begin this autumn, with an expected completion in the third quarter of 2027. Local teams will work closely with NCC’s experts to ensure the project meets the highest standards.
Both projects reflect NCC’s commitment to quality and sustainability. They are not just building structures; they are enhancing urban life. Each project is a testament to their expertise in managing complex construction processes.
NCC’s reputation in the Nordics is well-established. With sales of about SEK 57 billion in 2023 and a workforce of 12,200 employees, they are a powerhouse in the construction industry. Their shares are listed on Nasdaq Stockholm, further solidifying their position in the market.
The company’s focus on sustainability is commendable. In a world grappling with climate change, every effort counts. By investing in energy-efficient buildings, NCC is paving the way for a greener future.
As these projects unfold, they will undoubtedly bring economic benefits to their respective regions. Job creation, increased tourism, and enhanced community facilities are just a few of the positive outcomes.
NCC’s work in Helsinki and Visby is more than just construction. It’s about building a legacy. These projects will serve as landmarks for years to come. They will be places where memories are made, where families gather, and where communities thrive.
In conclusion, NCC is not just constructing buildings; they are crafting experiences. The refurbishment of the Scandic Hotel and the development of the swim center in Visby are prime examples of their vision. With a focus on sustainability and community, NCC is setting the stage for a brighter future. As they break ground on these projects, the excitement is palpable. The transformation of Helsinki and Visby is just beginning. The journey ahead promises to be remarkable.
