Advanced sustainable manufacturing

Choose Denmark for your next manufacturing hub and tap into an industry cluster with cross-company and cross-sector collaboration on optimising production with advanced technologies, lean & modular automation, and agile production processes.

A robust manufacturing landscape

Denmark proves to be a leading country on circular and sustainable manufacturing. And more importantly, we have the necessary sustainable infrastructure, innovation hubs and regulatory conditions to promote your circular business model and to lower your manufacturing CO2 footprint. 

It is commonly known that in Denmark access can be gained to large amounts of price-competitive green energy. However, a green transition of a manufacturing plant is much more than a green energy supply. What sets Denmark apart is not just its thriving industry support, but also its high ambitions and unwavering commitment to sustainability. A commitment that has been adapted and applied in other key Danish sectors, such as Pharmaceutical manufacturing and Food production.

Almost 40 years of ambitious energy policies have put Denmark ahead in the renewable energy industry and created one of the world’s most conducive business environments for Cleantech.

Not only is Denmark home to world-class advanced and sustainable manufacturing plants, Denmark is also a safe haven with a low-risk production environment. This is supported by the FM Resilience Index 2024, who ranks Denmark on a 1st place.

Why Denmark succeeds in Advanced Sustainable Manufacturing

A resilient production environment

Denmark provides a low-risk production environment such as highly reliable energy supply, minimal exposure to climate changes, very low probability of natural disasters as well as strong focus on cyber security. These are all elements that mitigate risks that could otherwise result in delays, breaches in supply chains or even cause factory shut-downs.

A leading country on circular and sustainable manufacturing

Future consumers demand sustainable products and circular business models. In Denmark, you get access to price competitive green energy and you can tap into a cost-effective ecosystem that promotes a circular approach to manufacturing. This is your opportunity to be part of a pioneer movement that will place your company on the map as one of the world’s most sustainable companies.

Flexible and agile manufacturing

The Danish manufacturing industry is in close collaboration with the Danish automation and robotics cluster, which is known for being one of the world’s most innovative clusters. With modular automation and digital automation processes such as IoT-systems and inexpensive, collaborative mobile robots, the Danish manufacturing industry is able to respond to sudden market changes by scaling its production up or down.

High level of quality and productivity

Advanced technologies and agile production processes ensure not only the highest possible quality but also an efficient production process with the same high-quality standards for each product.

Strong culture for collaboration

Denmark’s unique tradition for collaboration across the private sector, universities and public institutions result in rapid adoption of new technologies and drives innovative solutions for the manufacturing industry.

Highly skilled and flexible workforce

The Danish manufacturing industry has a highly skilled workforce, resulting in an efficient, proactive and result-driven environment. With a high professional level and a positive attitude towards automation in production, industry workers are ready to act independently and immediately on challenges as well as engage in the development and optimization of the production processes.
