The Tscherning Prize

For those who think ahead in construction. 

On the occasion of the company's 50th anniversary, Tscherning has established a prize of DKK 100,000, which is awarded once a year. The prize will promote circular transition and active social responsibility in the construction industry, agendas that Tscherning has pioneered for decades.

The purpose of the award is to support innovative practice, development and/or research that contributes to circular construction, reducing CO2 emissions, waste and resource consumption in construction.

CIRCRETE WINNER
THE CIRCRETE AWARD 2025

"I am so privileged to have the opportunity to test my own quirky ideas, but also to support others. I hope that the award can be a counterweight to those who believe that things can't be done. The award should be a hand in the back of those who say that - yes, we can and should do things differently - and who are curious to find out how"
Søren Tscherning, CEO Tscherning Group
