🏁 ABC: the pace is set! 📍 In Machelen, near Brussels, 135 aluminium frames have already been installed on the façade of the future ABC (Airport Business Center). The pace is set, and the project is now entering a more intensive phase. ➡️ These frames use a water- and airtightness system similar to the one implemented on the ZIN and MOBIUS projects. A solution our teams have mastered perfectly! The installation is carried out from inside the building using a glaslift (vacuum lifter), ensuring safe operations while accommodating the large dimensions of the frames and the limited openings in the structural concrete into which they are fitted. 👉 A technical and logistical challenge that will keep the Kyotec teams mobilised for another 9 months. Stay tuned to follow the next steps! #GivingBuildingsASustainableShine

🇧🇪 ABC à Bruxelles : un futur hub de travail lumineux et durable A Machelen, dans la banlieue nord de Bruxelles, Kyotec a été choisi pour la conception, la fabrication et la pose des futures façades du Airport Business Center (ABC) . ➡️ Ce bâtiment de plus de 38 000 m² accueillera en 2026 3 tours interconnectées par un RDC central. Il offrira des espaces de travail flexibles et de nombreux services : salles de réunion, fitness, café-bar… 🗓️ Dès le mois d’avril, le montage des façades débutera. Produites dans notre usine Kyotec, elles se composeront de vitrages cintrés et de panneaux opaques en tôles d’aluminium, et optimiseront lumière naturelle et efficacité thermique. 💡 ABC se distinguera par son ambition énergétique et visera les labels WELL Gold et BREEAM Outstanding, synonymes de durabilité et de confort pour ses futurs occupants.

🇧🇪 In Brussels Oxy Tower Refurbishment is underway ! The Oxy Tower, former headquarters of the Ville de Bruxelles - Stad Brussel and bpost, is continuing its transformation into a multifunctional complex combining offices, hotels and housing. The cladding of the 11th floor is underway, with the goal of completing the entire façade by spring 2025. In terms of design, the façade is based on parametric frames that interact with the light, changing the perception between glazing and sheet metal depending on the amount of sunlight. This "visual game" is accentuated by Steel Colors "Copper Gold Pallinato" tinted stainless steel, whose reflections change throughout the day, adding depth and dynamism. 👉 Follow Kyotec to discover the next steps of this emblematic project!

Kyotec and Techniwood chosen for the façade of the Grenoble-Alpes Métropole headquarters ! 🏆 Thanks to a successful collaboration between the Weclad companies, Kyotec has won the public tender for the renovation of the future headquarters of Grenoble-Alpes Métropole, in partnership with Techniwood. Designed by Baumschlager Eberle Architectes and Atelier A, this project stands out for an avant-garde choice: the massive use of bio-sourced and decarbonised materials to transform a building from the 1970s into a model of sustainability and energy efficiency. 🔧 With the use of Techniwood's Panobloc® technology, which benefits from a technical opinion recognised in France, the two Weclad structures have proposed an innovative biosourced, off-site façade solution. Around 400 panels, up to 6.60 metres wide per floor, will be produced at the Rumilly plant, and will incorporate ➡ wooden windows, ➡ blinds ➡ and metal cladding. Prefabrication of the entire façade in panels guarantees quality, safety and compliance with deadlines, thanks to optimised installation using the site crane. This exemplary overall renovation project for the Grenoble Metropolitan Council's head office combines heritage preservation, respect for the environment and high energy performance. It includes : ➡ 918 m² of photovoltaic panels on the roof, ➡ triple glazing with blinds for optimum thermal comfort, ➡ while retaining original features such as the raw concrete in the council chamber. Scheduled for completion in 2027! 🚀 #GivingBuildingsASustainableShine
