Veidekke Entreprenad AB, part of the broader Norwegian Veidekke Group, is a major actor in Sweden’s construction and civil engineering market, with regional headquarters located in Solna, near Stockholm. The company became active in Sweden in 1998, steadily increasing its reach through acquisitions, such as Brinkab AB and Arcona AB, both of which expanded its portfolio in new construction, renovation, and infrastructure, especially in the Stockholm region.
Historically, Veidekke began as a road construction firm in Norway in 1936, but today is among Scandinavia’s largest contractors, operating across building, civil engineering, industrial construction, and property development. In Sweden, and particularly around Stockholm, Veidekke Entreprenad AB executes projects ranging from residential blocks to large-scale infrastructure and environmental ventures.
One of the most significant recent projects is the expansion and technological upgrade of the Sickla section of the Henriksdal wastewater treatment plant in Stockholm. Veidekke is responsible for building complex new sewage tunnels and installing advanced membrane filtration systems, a contribution to what is recognized as Stockholm’s largest environmental investment with a budget over 9 billion SEK and completion expected by 2028. The project exemplifies the firm’s involvement in technically demanding and environmentally focused construction.
Veidekke Entreprenad AB employs a decentralized model, with teams managing a diverse range of contracts in commercial, municipal, and industrial construction. The company’s Swedish turnover previously exceeded 4 billion SEK, and Veidekke Group as a whole employs over 8,000 people across the Nordic region.
