Ikea picks NCC for new Swedish office

4 Jan 22 NCC is to build a new office building for Ikea in Älmhult, Sweden, under a design-build contract valued at SEK340m (£27.7m).

The new building, Future IoS Bl氓sippan Hub, has been designed by Architechts Krook & Tj盲der Uulas.

The 17,000m2 will primarily accommodate workplaces for Ikea鈥檚 product development. The spaces will be designed to allow a large degree of flexibility, enabling modifications, upgrades and remodelling to be carried out in the future.

聽鈥淔lexibility is the watchword for Future IoS Bl氓sippan Hub, which we are now looking forward to building in partnership with NCC. The building will be multi-purpose, with space for offices and product development, for example,鈥 said Ikea Property CEO Niclas Ramstr枚m.

The building has been designed to achieve an 鈥榦utstanding rating鈥 under the BREEAM environmental certification system.

鈥淚kea鈥檚 high focus on sustainability, alongside the quick start of the project and relatively short construction period, places increased requirements on planning and implementation,鈥 said NCC Building Sweden business manager Ulf J枚nsson. 鈥淣CC has extensive experience of this from previous projects and we look forward to constructing a highly flexible and innovative office in cooperation with Ikea.鈥

Construction is scheduled to begin in mid-February and the office is expected to be completed in 2023.
