An important step towards creating a safer and more efficient working environment for LKAB employees and contractors

VINAB has played a key role in the development of the Hyttan pump station in Svartöstaden, Luleå, as part of the extensive Östra Länken project.

In the spring of 2023, VINAB, in collaboration with NCC and Luleå municipality, began prefabricating the piping system for the pumping station, which proceeded according to plan with assembly until spring 2024.

The Hyttan pump station is an important part of Luleå’s new VA-infrastructure. VINAB’s assignment has included both prefabrication and assembly of pipes and steel. The project has been successfully managed by Henrik Boström, who has led VINAB’s efforts with great precision and commitment.

Pumping stations play a crucial role in transporting wastewater from low points in the network to higher levels via pressurization. This allows for efficient management of water and wastewater in areas with varying topography.

VINAB’s success in the project is a result of careful planning, strong partnerships with other stakeholders and a dedicated team. Through its work, VINAB has helped to ensure a modern and sustainable water and wastewater infrastructure that will benefit Luleå municipality long into the future.
