Traindepot in Hagalund, Sweden

Nordec to deliver frame and envelope for new train depot in Hagalund, Stockholm

Nordec Group Oy press release 13.3.2025 at 08.45

Nordec has been awarded a contract by NCC to design and build the frame and envelope structures for a new train depot in Hagalund, Stockholm. The depot, developed by Jernhusen as the property owner and investor, aims to enhance Sweden’s rail infrastructure and strengthen the region’s public transportation network.

This project represents a key milestone in modernizing Sweden’s rail infrastructure, and Nordec’s contribution includes the construction of a steel frame, prefabricated concrete slabs, walls, stairs, sandwich panel wall elements, and roof sheeting. NCC, responsible for the overall construction, will build a state-of-the-art train hall with vehicle lifts. Throughout the process, the existing depot and track area will remain operational, minimizing disruption for commuters and rail operators. 

In line with Nordec’s and NCC’s commitment to responsible construction practices, the project targets a BREEAM ‘Very Good’ certification. Special focus will be placed on material efficiency and minimizing environmental impact during construction. 

The modernized depot will boost rail efficiency and capacity in Stockholm while supporting Sweden’s goals for sustainable transport and reduced road traffic. Jernhusen’s long-term vision for the site is to create a modern, efficient depot that meets future transportation needs.  

Construction planning took place throughout autumn 2024, and assembly began just before Christmas. The project is set to be completed by December 2025.

Nordec showcase in Sweden

Nordec recently held an event in Gothenburg, Sweden, bringing together industry leaders, partners, and stakeholders to discuss and showcase Nordec’s innovative solutions and sustainability goals. 

Held at the well-known Platinan building, a project previously constructed by Nordec, the event aimed to visit Nordec’s Park Central site and present our climate goals and Hybrid Frame concept. This concept combines steel, wood, and concrete for efficient and sustainable material use. Additionally, the event sought to strengthen our collaboration with NCC and other partners, emphasizing our shared commitment to reducing carbon footprints and promoting sustainable construction practices. 

Over two days, attendees engaged in insightful presentations and discussions. NCC began with an overview of the Park Central project, showcasing the successful collaboration with Nordec. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with NCC expressing their satisfaction with Nordec as their frame contractor. 

A detailed site tour of the Park Central construction site provided attendees with a firsthand look at the innovative solutions being implemented and the project’s progress. 

Nordec introduced ongoing projects and delved into the sustainability aspects of the work, emphasizing the efforts to reduce carbon footprints and the importance of sustainable practices. This focus on sustainability was a key factor in NCC’s decision to partner with Nordec. 

The event concluded with a clear sense of direction. Our commitment to sustainability, innovation, and collaboration was evident throughout, and we look forward to continuing our work with NCC and other partners to achieve our shared goals. 

We extend our thanks to everyone who participated and contributed to the success of this event. Special thanks to NCC for their excellent presentation and ongoing collaboration.
