Sandvikenhus offers attractive and secure housing and premises with high service. We develop and refine apartments, residential areas, and living environments. We plan and project manage, acquire, and manage properties and land.
Our buildings have seen several generations of Sandviken residents grow up; ever since the company was founded in 1962. When we change and build new, it is to create a vibrant Sandviken with attractive living environments for many years to come. The homes we manage and plan today should still be part of an attractive Sandviken in fifty or a hundred years.
We are a public housing company, which means that we contribute to the housing supply in the municipality and have a social responsibility. It is important for us to contribute to positive development and growth in Sandviken Municipality, which we do, among other things, by collaborating with various companies, organizations, associations, and events that work on these issues.
