HSB Skåne moves to new Wihlborgs build in central Lund

2/6/2025 6:30 AM

HSB is a member-owned cooperative organisation that builds, manages and lets housing. HSB Skåne is a regional association that operates in 17 municipalities with head offices in Lund and local offices in Eslöv, Ystad, Hässleholm and Kristianstad. The move will allow HSB Skåne to co-locate two of its three Lund offices. In the long term, the organisation also intends to co-locate certain functions, but will simultaneously retain its important local presence.

“We have been part of the development of housing in the Sockerbruk area from the start and now have a new major development in the neighbouring area of Västerbro. This makes moving to Posthornet, on the completion of the new premises in 2026, feel even more appropriate. Moreover, Posthornet’s strategic location next to Lund Central Station supports sustainable commuting and also facilitates travel between the new office and our local offices by public transport. With both fixed and flexible workplaces, we are creating good conditions for even better collaboration in the new office,” says Ann Irebo, CEO of HSB Skåne.

HSB Skåne will be leasing the third floor at Posthornet 1, which includes its own balcony. The move is taking place in the second quarter of 2026 and the lease is for five years.

The first phase of the office building was completed in 2018 and is fully let, with a mix of operations like those of Trivector, Klaravik, Skandia, Veidekke and Folktandvården. The Swedish Prosecution Authority has previously decided to move in to the second stage of Posthornet.

Over the last few years, Wihlborgs has actively participated in developing the Sockerbruk area with new construction, such as Sockerbiten (Raffinaderiet 5), which was completed in 2019, and the renovation of the hundred-year-old Raffinaderiet property (Raffinaderiet 3), which was completed in 2023.

“There is healthy demand for modern office premises in central Lund and we are pleased to contribute to this offering with a project like Posthornet. It has a good density and an attractive mix of housing and workplaces, restaurants and cafés as well as terraces with views over Lund’s attractive rooftops, all on a nice human scale. It’s a cosy environment that we hope will provide HSB Skåne’s employees the best possible conditions to thrive in and collaborate,” says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs.
