Loop Rocks is a start-up initiated by a nordic construction company (NCC) to provide a solution to one of the construction industry's largest challenges - the handling and transportation of masses from construction sites. Today the process of handling and transporting masses is done in costly, wasteful and complex flows. By utilizing Loop Rocks, the entire construction industry as well as end-users can handle waste and secondary masses in a smarter, cost-reducing, more efficient and environmentally friendly manner.

Loop Rocks has created an open eco-system platform based on collaboration to solve a known problem, breaking with traditional industry standards and building a user-centric solution, thus becoming a business-integrator. All Loop Rocks users benefit by reducing time, costs and environmental impact by using less virgin masses and unnecessary transportation resulting in lower CO2 emissions and excavation impact, adding value from both a financial and environmental standpoint. The network opens up for anyone to connect to the eco-system, resulting in disruption for players that make money off today's inefficient handling of masses at the expense of the environment. Loop Rocks provides transparency, working to make the entire construction industry more circular.

Loop Rocks, sitting at EpiCenter in the city-center, launched June 2016 and have already moved close to 1 million ton of masses thru the app, with 2500 users connecting more than 600 sites throughout Sweden. The app is free of charge and available for both Android and iOS. Loop Rocks is continuously aiming to improve the product for the benefit of the user.
