Certified buildings – DKK 9 billion

We work to ensure that buildings in our property portfolio have a healthy indoor climate, promote positive social interaction and have low climate and environmental footprints. As part of this work, we have awarded sustainability certification to properties that meet high standards with respect to areas such as low climate and environmental footprint. This contributes to the green transition and ensures attractive properties that encourage stable and future-proof returns. Sustainability certification from DGNB is one example of the certification we use.
