For a greener and brighter future
Nordika aims to be part of the change and take responsibility for the planet and its future generations
Responsibility
Nordika aims to create inviting, secure, and inclusive spaces with best-in-class service offerings and amenities. The process of enhancing the assets is anchored in sustainability principles. Through mindful development and forward-thinking initiatives, Nordika are committed to building environments that resonate with today's needs and tomorrow's aspirations.
Prior to investment decisions, Nordika uses an ESG due diligence framework, where an evaluation of the risks and opportunities regarding environmental, social and govenance elements are taken into consideration for every targeted investment.
To evaluate and provide information on the risks and opportunities associated with the transition to a climate-neutral portfolio, Nordika has implemented and aligned its reporting with the TCFD (Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures) recommendations.
Climate actions
Nordikas climate approach focuses on the comprehensive improvement of underutilized assets, often involving the revitalization of outdated and inefficient spaces to create modern, high-quality assets that benefit end-users and enhance the local environment for the broader community.
Nordika has opted for a strategic membership in the GRESB (Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark) initiative since 2021 to ensure consistent and comparable sustainability efforts over time.
Nordika supports the promotion of long-term energy efficiency, and aims to achieve BREEAM In-Use certification for all its assets.
Our sustainability objectives focus on:
- Paving the way for climate change adaptation
- Creating environments that are both appealing and inclusive with a focus on service and health amenities
In Nordikas endeavor to align with the global sustainability agenda, Nordika commit to the objektives of the Paris Agreement, and has established short- and long term targets in alignment with:
- The UN's Sustainable Development Goals
- The principles of the UN's Global Compact
- Science Based Target Initiative

We sponsor socially important organizations
Social Initiative
Social Initiative supports social entrepreneurs who address societal challenges in innovative and effective ways. Through partnerships with businesses and philanthropists, they provide both capital and expertise to amplify and expand these initiatives. Among their notable efforts is their support for young women in Africa by offering them educational opportunities, among other resources. Together, Social Initiative drives positive and measurable societal change. Nordika is proud to support Social Initiative and its meaningful work.
Fryshuset
The management is supporting Fryshuset in their crucial work with young people. This is particularly true for what they call "Lovely Days," which are activities they create during school breaks for young people who don't have the opportunity to partake in other activities. This could be because their parents can't afford it or if they suffer from addiction. Nordika is proud to support this organization.
Aktivis Fonden
Aktivis Fonden's mission is to promote increased physical activity among children in need of special support. Through sports and camaraderie with their peers, these children can lead a healthier and more fulfilling life. At the same time, Aktivis provides parents with a moment for themselves, giving them the opportunity to do what they need at that particular time. Nordika is honored to support the endeavors of Aktivis Fonden.
