Our framework for the future

Sustainability

A Part from the Start

When LLENTAB started in 1972, sustainability was not a household word nor a primary business objective. But it was still an integrated part of our concept. Back then, we called it things like quality, cost awareness, and longevity, and we efficiently created the space and span that society needed then. No less, no more. Now we know that we were creating sustainability from the start.

Virtually all of the buildings we have built in the past are still standing. And they are still in use, either for their original purpose or a new purpose. It is difficult to make a steel building deteriorate. Steel is a fantastic, strong building material that can stand for eternity under the right conditions or be recycled into new steel. But it comes at a cost that we must consider and must radically reduce.

Today, as part of the general awareness of the global effects of human development, we also focus on how our concept affects the climate and how we can improve it.

LLENTAB steel - everything
3xS Source, Solution, Structure

Steel will also support LLENTAB’s structures in the future.
However, we must develop our concept, and we will do it from three angles:

SOURCE

buying the best steel we can from suppliers at the forefront of developing more sustainable products.

SOLUTION

designing, producing, transporting, and assembling our structures with the highest consideration for the energy and materials used, with a minimum of process waste.

STRUCTURE

providing a building structure that, over many decades, will meet the rapidly changing requirements and needs of its owner.

Our Vision
from a Global Point of View

Our Earth is deeply stressed by the rapid changes in the climate, largely caused by centuries of human overconsumption and the mindless use of raw materials and energy sources. Natural disasters, famines, migration, and war are largely consequences of this evolution.

No matter how mindless we have been, we can also adapt to new situations. And we do see rapid change globally in energy infrastructure. New ways of saving and treating water and soil are evolving, and we can finally see an accelerating awareness of and commitment to the Sustainability Goals that most countries have agreed upon.

In all these ongoing events, we feel that LLENTAB has a role to play. The world needs to take much better care of its assets: goods, grains, livestock, equipment, and anything that is easily wasted outdoors. Our buildings create weatherproof protection and an energy-efficient microclimate that saves our resources. Our buildings can also quickly and efficiently replace infrastructure destroyed by war or disasters. And they can do so for a long time.
