- Danish pension provider PFA has announced the completion of the country’s tallest building with wood in the load-bearing structure, a new office building known as TRÆ.

In addition to wood as the primary building material, recycling and upcycling were incorporated throughout the building, which means that resource consumption and the carbon footprint are significantly reduced.

"With TRÆ, we at PFA have tried to push the boundaries of how far you can take recycling, upcycling and CO2 reductions in a building. The result is a different, wild and innovative building. I believe that TRÆ is a crystal ball that gives us an insight into what construction will look like in the future," PFA head of property, Peter Morgan, said.
