Ruukki Construction offers sustainable building products and services such as roofs, envelopes and frame structures. Core business segments are non-residential and residential construction.

Ruukki’s customers are active in construction and real estate sectors.
Environmentally-aware construction has become normal practice. Alongside environmental awareness, customers’ requirements include the construction of high-quality, healthy buildings. Ruukki is responding to evolving requirements by offering customers the best products and solutions to promote sustainability. Examples of this include increasingly more energy-efficient panels and the Ruukki Life panel, which is mostly made from recycled material which cuts carbon dioxide emissions originating in production by as much as 20%.
Ruukki Construction has a strong market position in residential and non-residential construction in Finland, Scandinavia, the Baltic states, Poland, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are Ruukki’s key geographical market areas.
Construction business cycles impact greatly on demand in Ruukki Construction’s market area. Recent years have seen strong demand in the construction markets in the Nordic countries and in Europe, but growth is now gradually plateauing. Alongside this, demand and the markets are being driven strongly by trends such as digitalization, consumer behavior, urbanization and sustainable construction.
During the past few years, Ruukki Construction has created a solid foundation to achieve sustainable growth with customers in the core business areas - Roofing and Building Envelopes in the Nordics, Baltics and CEE.
Ruukki Construction’s goal is to offer complete steel-based roofing and building envelope solutions for buildings. This includes product deliveries, design and technical support, with SSAB as the main steel supplier. Ruukki Construction focuses on outperforming construction market growth, both organically as well as by acquisitions to strengthen the offering in prioritized segments and markets.
