Investment Case
Balco Group is the market leader in the Nordic region in the attractive and niche balcony market.
Balco Group offers customer-adapted balcony solutions under its own trademark to tenant-owner associations, private landlords, the public housing sector and construction companies, primarily in Sweden, Norway and Denmark which are the company’s primary markets, but also in Germany, Finland, the UK and the Netherlands.
Full-scale offering
Balco Group has a comprehensive offering in balconies for both the renovation and new build segments. In addition, the Group, through its subsidiaries and subcontractors, also offers facade renovation services, support services and other additional services such as the installation of solar panels and heat pumps. The market for balcony and facade renovations in the Nordic region is estimated at approximately SEK 40 billion and is expected to increase by at least 5 percent annually as a result of a pent-up need for renovation and upcoming EU legislation regarding the energy class of buildings.
Competitive advantage
Balco Group has a strong market position that is difficult to replicate through a broad patent portfolio, in-house production in three countries and its own installation capacity. Several subsidiaries also have the ability to manage turnkey projects. Taken together, this means the Group has full control over quality, costs and delivery precision, as well as creating high barriers to entry for competitors. Across Europe, Balco Group is one of a few players that can handle large and complex balcony projects. This includes maritime projects where Balco Group is one of only two major players in Europe.
Growing internationally
Balco Group is the market leader in Sweden and Norway and is among the major players in Denmark. Through its broad and unique product offering combined with the Group’s collective expertise, Balco Group has succeeded in expanding into additional markets by meeting local preferences in each market. Today, the Group is also established in Germany, the UK and the Netherlands and at the same time has a strong position in Finland following the acquisitions of Riikku and Suomen Ohutlevyasennus in 2024.
Leading innovator
Innovation and development are continuous within the Group, and every year new patented solutions are added in areas such as steel construction and industrial design for modular systems, energy optimisation and installation solutions. The Company's design work combines aesthetics and functionality with locally adapted solutions for different markets.
Strong ESG profile
A central part of Balco Group's offering is energy-efficient balcony solutions that can contribute to up to 30% lower energy consumption in the home, while also reducing the climate footprint, extending the lifespan of the balcony and creating a more pleasant living environment. The Company works continuously to lower its environmental impact in both production and product development by evaluating material choices, processes and new solutions. Its long-term sustainability work has resulted in Balco Group currently being among the top 10 percent of companies in the construction sector in terms of ESG risk.
