Urbangreen AB operates as a specialist in green infrastructure, engineering solutions to reintroduce nature into urban environments. The firm was established in 2014 with the goal of providing multifunctional green installations for city construction projects.
The company's business model centers on delivering comprehensive, system-based solutions for green urban development. It provides services from the planning and design phase through to installation, tailored to projects of any scale. Its client base includes property owners, developers, architects, and landscape contractors. Urbangreen generates revenue through large, complex contracts, particularly for rooftop landscapes, which are designed not only to create social spaces but also to manage stormwater runoff.
Products and services offered by Urbangreen are specifically adapted for the Nordic climate. The portfolio includes biotope walls, ceiling landscapes, aquatic plant systems, and various planting solutions designed for urban settings like rooftops and courtyards. These offerings aim to provide both functional and social benefits, addressing challenges like stormwater management while creating areas for community interaction.
Historically, the company has utilized equity crowdfunding to finance its growth, raising SEK 20 million in 2017 and a further SEK 7.9 million in early 2019 through the Pepins platform. This strategy brought in over 1,100 shareholders, including a significant stake from Investmentbolaget Spiltan. A major milestone occurred on March 18, 2021, when Nordic Waterproofing Group acquired Urbangreen AB for an enterprise value of SEK 55 million. At the time of the acquisition, Urbangreen had 27 employees and an annual turnover of approximately SEK 50 million. Following the acquisition, Urbangreen was merged into Veg Tech AB, another entity within the Nordic Waterproofing Group, in 2022. The two brands have since been consolidated under the single VegTech brand to present a unified and complete offering of green solutions to the market.
