The Ukrainian Business Award is an independent award that recognizes the best companies in Ukraine for their contribution to the economy and society. The winners are selected based on objective data and expert opinions.
The award is a confirmation of Rauta’s leadership in the construction market and its contribution to the development of the Ukrainian economy, as the company continues to operate steadily, introduce new technologies and actively participate in the restoration of destroyed buildings during the full-scale invasion. Since 2022, the company has participated in the reconstruction of the Retroville shopping center, two supermarkets and the Novus logistics terminal, Forum Park Plaza in Kyiv, Pinocchio kindergarten in Bucha, and a truck service station in Odesa.
Ruukki ventilated facades now have a Global Warming Potential (GWP) rating, allowing architects and customers to monitor the environmental performance of materials and improve the sustainability of construction projects, according to Rauta.
GWP, expressed in kilograms of CO₂ equivalent per square meter, makes it possible to compare the environmental performance of different building materials and assess their impact on climate change within the life cycle assessment of a building.
“The availability of GWP allows customers to make informed choices in favor of the most environmentally friendly materials and earn additional points in certification according to international environmental standards LEED and BREEAM,” said Rauta Director Andriy Ozeychuk.
GWP data is available on the pages of the corresponding Ruukki ventilated facade products.

Rauta has said that Ruukki sandwich panels can last over 100 years. This conclusion is backed up by test reports on the filler and polymer-coated steel, the company said.
According to Rauta, the key factors affecting the durability of sandwich panels are the correct selection of the polymer coating for steel cladding in accordance with the corrosion aggressiveness category of the environment, as well as the accurate calculation of the panels to ensure the proper load-bearing capacity of the enclosing structures.
