7 December, 2023 [Press release]
By signing a partnership agreement with Prodikt – the digital service that brings together environmental and climate data in one accessible platform – Derome strengthens its sustainability offering.
Prodikt brings information together in a simple way
The pressure to report climate impact is increasing from all directions. With this agreement we want to keep making life easier for our customers and continue to drive progress in the industry. We cannot solve this on our own. Success requires collaboration with customers, suppliers and partners at the forefront – and that is where this partnership comes in.
“They have done a brilliant job creating a solution that gathers climate data in one place. It will make things easier along the entire value chain,” says Elina Aggerstam, Head of Sustainability at Derome Bygg & Industri AB.

The partnership between Derome and CarbonZero, the company behind the Prodikt platform, makes smooth sustainability analyses possible for tenders, projects and reporting. Today Derome provides generic data, but together with material manufacturers and suppliers, Derome will now be able to offer product-specific data via Prodikt. The first focus is on climate data, and over time this will also include circularity and health data for building products.
Derome was early in offering fossil-free transport and solutions that reduce customers’ climate impact. The partnership between CarbonZero and Derome is another important piece of the puzzle that simplifies everyday work and helps customers make choices that create both business value and environmental benefits. For Derome’s suppliers, the collaboration will streamline data sharing, simplify daily work with product and sustainability data and, above all, create long-term value together.
Today, many different professional roles in the construction and real estate sector use Prodikt in their projects. CarbonZero AB provides the digital platform Prodikt. Developing the service together with customers is key to improving it – and this partnership is another example of that.

“I am really looking forward to starting and developing the collaboration with Derome. Together we will make it easier for more people to build sustainably and navigate the ‘jungle’ that sustainability can sometimes feel like. By connecting the same suppliers’ information with Derome’s customers, we create fantastic opportunities for sustainable construction and a successful partnership,” says Rasmus Ekberg, CEO and co-founder of CarbonZero AB, which operates the Prodikt platform.
Transparent climate data: Clear climate information for each building product enables quick and simple comparison of the climate impact of different options.
Environmental and business value: Product-level climate data supports customers’ business decisions and their overall work to reduce climate impact.
Sustainable development: Offering products with low climate impact and long service life supports Derome’s ambition to be a driving and responsible player in the construction industry.
CarbonZero AB provides the digital platform Prodikt, where construction projects can be analysed easily – from product selection through to operation. In collaboration with manufacturers, product data is made accessible and comparable across many different parameters. Prodikt does not rate or rank the products; the choice is made by, for example, the architect, purchaser or developer. The company is owned by BIMobject AB.
Derome is a family-owned company in constant development, driven by a desire to make things better. The entrepreneurial spirit that guides us today has been there since the company started more than 75 years ago. We offer a broad and unique range – from timber, building materials, steel and industrial products to turnkey homes and residential areas. In 2022 we had 2,800 employees and net sales of around SEK 11 billion.
