Plant and Prodikt focus on different parts of the construction industry's digital ecosystem. Prodikt, part of BIMobject AB, structures and makes available quality-assured product and environmental data. Plant develops software that helps industry professionals calculate, compare and reduce the climate impact of construction projects.

– The construction industry does not need more isolated systems. It needs better infrastructure that allows information to move between manufacturers, platforms and users. Manufacturers' product data now gains another clear and practical use in Plant, Sweden's market-leading climate calculation platform, says Rasmus Ekberg, co-founder of Prodikt and Commercial Director at BIMobject AB.

More development capacity at Plant

Plant is used for climate calculations at every stage of the construction process and works with all types of source material, including BIM models. With a few clicks, users can compare sketches, materials and construction systems to see how different decisions affect a project's climate footprint.

Through the partnership, Plant's customers, including Skanska, Peab and Vasakronan, gain access to more products, more environmental data points and more detailed information about each product. This provides a broader basis for climate calculations and supports continued development in areas including circularity.

– Access to good, up-to-date product data is essential for producing good climate calculations. Through Prodikt, we can scale access to the information our users need while putting even more effort into developing Plant. This creates a stronger overall offering for the market, says Pelle Tunell, CEO and founder of Plant.

Product information reaches more construction projects

Since its launch in 2021, Prodikt's mission has been to make manufacturers' product information available where it creates the greatest value: in the right format, at the right time and in the systems where industry professionals work.

Through the connection to Plant, the product information structured in Prodikt reaches more construction projects. The industry's data flows are strengthened at the same time, and Prodikt reinforces its position as the market's primary service for intelligent product data.

– Plant's software will now be an optimal choice for many of our project customers' climate calculations. We have great confidence in the partnership and in both parties continuing to sharpen their capabilities in their respective areas, Rasmus Ekberg continues.
