Available offices at Raffinaderiet

Some things are worth waiting one hundred years for!

100 year old sugar refinery
The west side of Lund Central Station is home to our characteristic Raffinaderiet property. The charming and beautiful sugar refinery was constructed just over 100 years ago at the best location in Lund. At that time, the factory owner ran inspections to ensure that the refining process was successful, but that was then. Today, operations at Raffinaderiet will take an entirely different form.

State-of-the-art office premises
We are now building state-of-the-art office premises that respect the history and charm embedded in the building’s walls. The choice of materials with patinated brass, reused brick and black steel has been made to enhance Raffinaderiet’s hundred-year-old industrial charm.

Workplaces that reflect history
The transformation into 5,800 m² of modern and environmentally certified offices will be something entirely unique. With a notion to reflect history, we are creating state-of-the-art workplaces with material choices linking back to the building’s industrial past.

A detailed and charming facade
The detailed and charming facade, made from reused brick, which adorns the hundred year old industrial building provides a unique opportunity that is difficult to say no to. The new Raffinaderiet will be the perfect mix of historical industrial character and flexible, modern office premises.

It was the combination of Raffinaderiet’s history and future that spoke to us, and we particularly fell for the property’s character. We love the history that the property possesses, the reuse of material and the fact that the architect has really studied what is suitable for the property. It comes with the old but is nonetheless a modern product.

Historic industrial character

Raffinaderiet comprises several different buildings that were put up between 1888 and 1907 for the sugar refinery. The property housed everything from the refining process to the steam boiler, forge, cooper’s shop and housing for the refinery’s top management. Since the closure of the sugar factory in 1913, the property has played host to regiments, the textile industry, metal turning, bookbinding, workshops, educational activities and office premises.

Parts of the property are listed as of historic interest and we attach great importance to preserving, recreating and reflecting the historic values in the architecture and the choice of materials. The facade will be designed with recovered bricks, period-correct glazing and material choices such as patinated brass and steel. The material choices for the interiors will also tie in to the property’s industrial heritage. In total, we are creating 5,800 m² of modern, environmentally certified office space.

When we were searching for a new office in Lund, we knew that we wanted to find something central and close to the train station so that our employees would not think it was too far away. West of Lund C is an up-and-coming area and we really like this part of the city. It’s also a great feeling to work in the centre of this lovely town, and there are many lunch options nearby.
