Skanska

What Skanska does

Skanska AB is a publicly listed Swedish construction and development group (Nasdaq Stockholm: SKA) founded in 1887, operating across 11 European countries and the United States with a global workforce of more than 42,000. In Poland, the residential development business is run through Skanska Residential Development Poland Sp. z o.o., which develops and sells multi-phase residential estates in Warsaw and Krakow under named projects including NU Warszawa Wola, Park Skandynawia, Holm House, Jaśminowy Mokotów, Solen Kabaty, Osiedle Mickiewicza, Awangarda Mogilska, Hemma Orawska, Mazowiecka 21, and Stilla. The Polish commercial real estate arm develops and divests office buildings, including a SEK 1.4 billion portfolio sale in December 2025.

The core technology stack centers on sustainability certification: every current Polish residential project is built to BREEAM standards (Osiedle Mickiewicza was the first BREEAM-certified residential estate in Poland), with anti-smog ventilation, rooftop photovoltaic generation for common areas, the Appartme smart home automation platform, and Obiekt bez barier accessibility certification. Climate targets include a 70% reduction in Scope 1+2 emissions by 2030 and net-zero by 2045, with 61% already achieved by 2024 and 87% of global electricity sourced from renewables.

Revenue is generated through one-time unit sales of residential apartments and houses (priced from approximately PLN 600,000 to over PLN 3,000,000 per unit, with commercial units in NU2 from PLN 1,260,000 to PLN 2,500,000), commercial real estate sales and leases, and general construction services. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the mieszkaj.skanska.pl property portal, physical sales offices including the Home Center at SPARK in Warsaw, project-site showrooms with model apartments, and dedicated sales advisors. Customer segments are primarily individual residential buyers (including first-time buyers, families, and investors) and commercial property buyers, with named enterprise clients such as CD PROJEKT for commercial campus development. Complementary revenue is captured through the Deer Design interior fit-out partnership, NOTUS Finanse mortgage advisory, and post-handover services including a defect reporting system.
