Mr. Leif G Gustafsson, January 2013

Quarterly change of GDP 10

The Swedish national economy is good. GDP was declining as in most countries 2008-09 but has recovered quickly and well. The national debt is 33% of GDP.

Sweden is highly depending on its export industries. The Swedish currency is globally small, but has strengthened against Euro and US$ which affect the export negative. Estimation for 2013 is lower than 2012. TMF – Swedish Federation of Wood and Furniture Industry

The overall construction investment in Sweden 2011 was SEK 300 billion (45,7 Bn US$), 8,6% of GDP. Residential construction was estimated to decrease -9% 2012 and remain unchanged 2013

Number of housing starts is still declining. An upturn is estimated during 2013. Political and financial decisions, such as mortgage restrictions, are keeping the housing starts low.

Construction investments differ among the nordic countries of Europe. Housing starts were down in Sweden 2012 and will almost stay at the same level 2013. Both Finland and Norway will start more new housing than Sweden although they have only half the population as Sweden. Overall construction investments were approx. 150 billion US$ 2011 in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. In the circle diagrams below Sweden is the blue sector Residential

Housing starts have been low since 1993 in Sweden. Today we have a shortage of approx 250.000 apartments. Population is estimated to grow as the diagram shows. Shortage of housing will increase 90000 80000

Population growth

Industrial production will be necessary To meet with future demands of new housing, more effective industrial processes must be developed. Modular construction is becoming an attractive alternative and the technology is being developed continuously. Turnkey building elements produced in-house using an industrial process under controlled conditions means high quality, flexibility and short delivery times, with controlled economy. The apartments are delivered from the factory with the kitchen and bathroom fittings pre-installed, and the bathroom already tiled. A high level of prefabrication at the factory reduces the risk and the work required at the construction site TMF – Swedish Federation of Wood and Furniture Industry

Prefabricated modules for roof extension Apartments with a high degree of finishing from the factory and a high degree of repetition in production mean cost efficiency.

2004 only 2 % of all multidwelling houses were build of wood. Today the share is 16 %. 85 % of all single houses are build of wood. Industrially prefabricated houses are increasing rapidly.

Sustainable Buildings Sweden has very high goals concerning sustainability.

• 20 % reduction of used energy in buildings by 2020 • 50 % reduction of used energy in buildings by 2050 • CO2 neutral society by 2050 • Near Zero energy used for heating by 2021

Sustainable Buildings Building regulations in Sweden from 2013.

• Maximum measured electric energy used for heating and hot water 55 kWh/m2 and year. • Maximum measured nonelectric energy for heating and hot water 90 kWh/m2 and year

TMF – Swedish Federation of Wood and Furniture Industry

Sustainable Buildings Standard building systems that meet the new requirements.

• Wall thickness 270 – 350 mm, U-value 0,12 – 0,16 W/m2 K. • Windows, tripple-glazed with U-value 0.7 – 1,1 W/m2 K • Floor and roof, U-value 0.08 – 0,12 W/m2 K • Heating system, district heating or heat pump

Sustainable Buildings Next generation buildings is already being built.

• Electric energy produced with PV-cells. • Increased insulation in walls, floor and roof. • Heating system, district heating or heat pump combined with solar heating.

TMF – Swedish Federation of Wood and Furniture Industry

Sustainable Buildings R&D is mainly focused on making the latest technology commercial available and robust. • Better insulation for thinner walls, aerogel etc. • PV-cells incorporated in roof and wall elements. • Robust building systems concerning moisture related problems. • Industrial production methods for more cost effective products.
