Sweden
Byggvarubedömningen is a Swedish-based, non-profit economic association founded in 2008, primarily operating within the Real Estate and Construction industries. Their mission is to simplify sustainable building practices, guided by the slogan: Tillsammans gör vi det enklare att bygga hållbart! They aim to influence the development of safer, non-toxic building materials that ensure a better-built environment for current and future generations.
The entity is collectively owned by major property owners and contractors, focusing on reducing the use of materials that could harm people and the environment. This is facilitated through an accessible database and digital logbook that tracks and evaluates products used at specific project sites.
Byggvarubedömningen last secured a $168.00K investment during a Venture Round on 20 May 2016, with backing from investors like Almi Invest and Martin Timell. Continuous growth in memberships and product assessments underscores their expanding influence in promoting sustainable construction practices.
