With Formica, we get a long-term partner whose experience of building strong companies and knowledge in scaling sustainable solutions will be a great asset for us. Their strong belief in sustainable wooden construction, with a focus on positive impact and responsible entrepreneurship, is in line with our values ​​and our view of the future. With this collaboration, we see great opportunities to realize Nock's full potential.
says Olle Knaust, VD, Nock Massiva Trähus
The  ongoing Swedish cement crisis has demonstrated the need for cost-effective alternatives to concrete in the construction industry. Nock uses our local forests to build housings at the right price while storing carbon dioxide. We have for some time been looking for investments in wood-based construction and have in Nock found a unique company with a high degree of innovation and fantastic ability to get things done. Together, we hope to contribute to meeting both climate challenges and the housing crisis with high-quality buildings that people will enjoy living in.
