In Linköping, a seven-story student housing project showcases Latvian expertise in timber structural design. Latvian specialists excel in cross-laminated timber (CLT) and glued laminated timber (GLT) – increasingly important as Swedish projects adapt to stricter climate requirements.

In the same city, a wooden pedestrian bridge manufactured by Latvian subcontractors demonstrates their infrastructure capabilities. In Hogan, Borlänge, and Härå, Latvian wooden modules have been used for housing projects, reducing construction time and waste.

From Modules to Skyscrapers

Sweden’s iconic Karlatornet in Gothenburg features high-quality metal components from Latvian suppliers, meeting rigorous engineering standards for high-rise projects.

Latvian companies lead in modular solutions, helping Sweden streamline construction processes. In Järna, a Latvian supplier contributed to the new ”Circle K” electric charging station, while in Luleå, Latvian firms helped construct the innovation center for iron ore producer LKAB.

Strong Economic and Trade Ties

Latvia’s exports to Sweden reached more than 11 billion SEK in 2024, with wood and wood products making up a significant portion. Swedish imports to Latvia amounted to almost 8 billion SEK, highlighting the strong economic relationship between both nations. The well-developed Baltic Sea ports, daily flights between Riga and Stockholm, and efficient logistics infrastructure ensure stable and cost-effective supply chains for Swedish construction projects.
