Construction
The construction industry is facing major changes. The Swedish National Board of Housing, Building and Planning's new building regulations from July 2025 mean that general guidelines will disappear and the sector itself will have to develop and verify solutions that meet functional requirements. At the same time, requirements for energy efficiency, moisture safety and a good indoor environment are increasing. In order to meet the professional standards requirement, companies need to quality assure products, systems and expertise – and demonstrate that they comply with both regulations and the industry's own requirements. Without clear guidance, there is considerable uncertainty about how the requirements should be interpreted and met.

We certify products, systems and individuals, verify industry documents, and provide expert support in building physics and indoor environments.
