Our approach to sustainability

KeyPlants’ position as a leader in off-site modular manufacturing has a clear link to sustainability. Our ambition is to deliver innovative life science facilities and projects that contribute to a healthier world while maximizing the positive sustainability impacts of our modular manufacturing process. For KeyPlants, sustainability also means incorporating sustainability principles into our design process and value chain, conducting business in an ethical way and in alignment with our company values, and fostering safe, respectful, and inclusive work environments.

“KeyPlants is embedding sustainability into every aspect of our business to not only safeguard the resources and communities that we all depend on, but also drive innovation and create lasting value in line with our company’s core values.”
Mathias Ribenmo
CEO
