STRABAG is headquartered in Vienna, Austria, and has a workforce of nearly 86,000 employees. The company operates across the construction industry.
STRABAG CEO Klemens Haselsteiner said: “After nine months, we see ourselves confirmed in our assessment for business development in 2024. Particularly encouraging is the increase in our order backlog by around €1.9bn to €25.3bn in the year to date, a growth trend that has continued beyond the third quarter.
“The basis for this development is the good mix of new orders, above all in projects related to the energy transition. This applies in particular to our infrastructure and services business. Our order backlog already gives us good visibility towards 2026 and a solid starting position for the coming year.”
