Work On Progress

Construction can also be done sustainable - that's the way we do things

At STRABAG, more than 86,000 creative and clever minds are endeavouring to make the future of the company and the construction industry more sustainable. We know the construction sector is responsible for 38 % of global greenhouse gas emissions. That means the challenge of reducing CO2 is truly significant. At the same time, we have the opportunity to make a tangible difference here.

With approximately 250 innovation and 400 sustainability projects, we apply leverage exactly where it is needed. Examples include asphalt recycling, noise and emission-reducing road surfaces, and CO2-reduced concrete. We generate electricity in a quarry using a conveyor belt and are transforming an old oil port into a centre for urban mining and co-working. We construct the buildings of tomorrow with building materials made from renewable raw materials and power them with energy from sustainable sources.

With our mission WORK ON PROGRESS, we stand for radical transformation in the construction industry. As part of our Strategy 2030, we have set ourselves an ambitious goal: climate neutrality by 2040. We will achieve this in close collaboration with our technology partners, suppliers, research institutions and customers. It will be a lot of work, but we know how to build strong foundations, and we can build the bridge to a sustainable future.

CO2 emissions

Less is more when it comes to climate protection. We are always seeking new ways to reduce environmentally harmful gases at our construction sites and in our offices. This starts with the use of sustainable building materials and extends to the environmentally friendly operation of buildings.

Material & circular economy

No valuable raw materials are left to waste. Today, buildings are no longer the final destination for construction materials, but a stop in their life cycle. Even before they are used the first time, we have a look at how and in what form they can be reused.

Digitalization, processes & innovation

For us, progress means forging new paths and achieving better results. With digital tools and innovative technology, we build more quickly, more efficiently and, above all, more sustainably. Thus, the foundations of our structures are not only built from concrete, but from state-of-the-art data management as well.
