CG Jensen

What CG Jensen does

CG Jensen A/S is a Danish general construction and civil engineering contractor headquartered in Glostrup, Denmark, founded in 2007 and operating nationwide through 14 specialized divisions covering concrete works, concrete renovation, building construction (east and west), element mounting, landscaping and paving, design and engineering, piling and marine construction, earthwork/sewage/utilities, parking structures, steel construction, wood/CLT construction, boring and cutting, and renovation/transformation. The company's core operational differentiator is one of Denmark's largest in-house production capabilities, with the majority of projects executed using owned equipment and a directly employed workforce of 501–1,000 people, supplemented by 3D/BIM-based project customization and in-house CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) competencies acquired in 2021.

The company generates revenue primarily through project-based construction contracts awarded via competitive tendering in three delivery modes: main contracts (hovedentrepriser), total contracts (totalentrepriser), and subcontracts. Pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed; the GTM motion combines public procurement bidding, invited tenders for government clients, and direct early-stage engagement with private developers and investors. Customer segments span government/public-sector clients (e.g., Folketinget, Vejdirektoratet, Hovedstadens Letbane), large private developers and institutional investors (e.g., NREP, Goldman Sachs/Gefion, KPC for Danica Ejendomme, By & Havn), and commercial end-users (e.g., CabInn A/S, Apcoa Parkering Danmark, Prins Henriks Skoles Ejendomsfond), with marquee projects such as Postbyen (95,000 sqm), Rødovre Port (37,500 sqm), Myrholm, and the CabInn Copenhagen hotel (1,220 rooms).

In June 2026, CG Jensen was acquired by Per Aarsleff Holding A/S (a publicly listed Danish construction group that reported H1 FY2026 revenue of DKK 12.2 billion) for approximately DKK 800 million combined with Adserballe & Knudsen, making CG Jensen a wholly owned subsidiary. The company has set a net-zero target for scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2029 and a 50% reduction target for scope 3 emissions by 2029, reporting a 19% reduction in scope 1 and 2 and a 48% reduction in scope 3 by 2025 against a 2021 baseline.

Direct peers

• MT Højgaard Holding: One of Denmark's largest general contractors with comparable in-house production capabilities and similar civil engineering/building focus. Direct competitor for main contracts, total contracts, and large public infrastructure tenders across Denmark.
• NCC Danmark: Danish arm of Swedish-listed NCC, operating in non-residential building construction, civil engineering, and infrastructure. Direct head-to-head competitor for many of the same public and private tenders as CG Jensen.
• Skanska Danmark: Danish operations of Swedish-listed Skanska, competing in commercial building, civil engineering and public infrastructure projects in Denmark with comparable scale and project portfolio mix.
• Adserballe & Knudsen: Danish general contractor (now sister company under Per Aarsleff Holding after the same June 2026 acquisition). Overlapping divisions in concrete, civil engineering, and building construction make it a clear operational peer and integration counterpart.
• Veidekke Danmark: Norwegian-headquartered Scandinavian contractor with Danish building and civil engineering operations. Comparable in tendering approach, project mix, and public-sector exposure.
• M.J. Eriksson: Danish general contractor with strong earthwork, infrastructure, and civil engineering capabilities. Competes directly with CG Jensen's Jord, Kloak og Forsyning division on infrastructure tenders.
• Hoffmann A/S: Danish contractor with comparable expertise in concrete, building construction, and complex city-centre projects. Direct competitor on residential and commercial building tenders in Denmark.

Broad incumbents

• Per Aarsleff Holding: Publicly listed Danish construction group and now CG Jensen's parent company. Aarsleff is a broad incumbent in civil engineering, foundations, and infrastructure with significantly larger scale — comparison is meaningful on group-level capacity, not project-level execution.

Regional players

• Züblin A/S (Strabag): Danish arm of German-headquartered Strabag/Züblin group. Competes on large-scale civil and building tenders across Scandinavia with comparable technical scope, but strategically anchored outside Denmark.

Emerging players

• Jakob Hatteland (JH Building Systems / Hatteland Group): Scandinavian modular/timber construction player overlapping with CG Jensen's Wood Construction division. Smaller and more specialised, but a credible emerging alternative in CLT and modular timber builds where CG Jensen is building capability.
