EGG is now evaluating sites in whole Sweden. See the research

Finding Europe's next homes
inside its old factories.

EGG identifies and transforms underused industrial buildings into residential homes. We evaluate every eligible factory, warehouse, and hall in the Nordic region — and work directly with property owners to make conversion happen.

Who we are

Real estate research and development that puts equity and reuse at the frontier.

What we do

Real estate decisions shape cities for generations. EGG is a public benefit company dedicated to broadening housing access and closing Europe's supply gap — not by building on new land, but by giving a second life to the industrial buildings already inside our cities.

Current work

Transforming empty factories into housing.

We are building the most comprehensive evaluation of Sweden's industrial building stock — mapping every eligible site for residential conversion potential using EGG's methodology. The first assessment of its kind in the Nordic region.
