Discover the future of construction
What is Our Vision?
Let’s create a meaningful and positive impact on communities and humanity through the built environment.
At BuildUp, we believe in rethinking construction—where innovation, sustainability, and efficiency transform every project into a positive impact for the future.
Let’s share our vision with you.
Rethinking Construction to Meet Today’s and Tomorrow’s Challenges
The most polluting industry today
The construction sector is responsible for 40% of global CO₂ emissions, 50% of raw material consumption, and 30% of global waste. It must reinvent itself to address today’s humanitarian and environmental challenges.
The housing crisis and its challenges
We are facing a housing crisis and increasing urbanization, both in Europe and globally, due to economic, energy, and climate factors.
Key figures:
-
43
million homes must be renovated in Europe by 2050.
-
82
million Europeans struggle to afford housing costs, and homelessness is rising.
-
10
billion: The estimated world population by 2080, according to the UN.
-
20
million people were displaced due to climate-related disasters in 2023.
What if we reinvented construction for a sustainable impact?
At BuildUp, we believe it is time to radically transform how we build in Europe. Faced with environmental and economic challenges, we are developing innovative solutions that optimize resources and reduce the sector’s carbon footprint.
Our vision and our approach is based on two (and soon three) complementary divisions:
- beSteel – Our leading brand specializing in light steel framing, providing fast, precise, and high-performance construction solutions for the B2B market for nearly 10 years.
- Retrofitt – Our response to energy renovation challenges, turning existing buildings into high-energy-performance models with industrialized and prefabricated solutions.
- Kitt (on going)– Our newest division focused on accessible modularity, democratizing prefabricated construction with local, affordable, and user-friendly solutions.
Through these two divisions, we are shaping the future of construction by combining innovation, sustainability, and efficiency. Our ambition: to make off-site construction the standard and accelerate the transition to a more responsible industry.
What are our 3 Pillars of Action to Drive Change ?
-
1
Reduction of environmental footprint:
- Optimal material use with a focus on circular construction and deconstruction.
- Using renewable energy in our processes.
-
2
Boosting Productivity and Profitability
- Industrialized and digitalized methods for fast and efficient construction.
- A skilled team and strong partner network.
-
3
Urban Densification Solutions
- Extensions and vertical additions using lightweight systems, quickly assembled and disassembled.
- Preserving land by optimizing existing structures instead of expanding into new areas.
