Öresundskraft is a company owned by the City of Helsingborg, Sweden with the main task of providing the municipality’s residents with electricity, broadband, district heating, and more. The company’s head office in Helsingborg needed renovation.     

“Our office was built in 1993 according to the principles that prevailed at the time. Now we wanted to rebuild the office so that it promotes a modern, activity-based way of working”, says Jesper Baaring, project manager at Öresundskraft.   

  The project group at Öresundskraft who was commissioned with the task of solving the issue of where to locate the office premises during the reconstruction carried out the project thoroughly. At first, different solutions were weighed against each other. Would you rent temporary premises in the city, or find another solution?  

The procurement was made via The Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SALAR), according to the requirements profile from Öresundskraft as specific requests such as acoustics, heating, air quality, cooling, and so on. When these parameters were weighed in, Adapteo’s flexible solution became the winning one.  

The result became 2000 m2 of office space that was built entirely according to Öresundskraft’s wishes, and which in many ways has exceeded the staff’s hopes for a pleasant, cozy environment with good acoustics, light, and indoor environment.   

This was achieved by, among other things, using glass doors, sound-dampening carpets, and an energy-efficient heat pump solution.   

Thanks to the flexibility of the buildings, it has been possible to choose a floor plan that gives employees a taste of the open activity-adapted surfaces that the newly renovated office will offer.
