The new use of that historic building made it possible to maintain the “BREEM Excellent“ sustainability rating which comprises criteria such as, for example, ecological quality, economic quality, socio-cultural and functional quality, technical quality and process quality.
The large stores in the building, some of them suffused with light, the contrast between old and new and the large number of different restaurants and cafés are irresistible invitations for a leisurely stroll through the building.
HANNO supplied about 1000 m Hannoband®-BG1 – the top tape of the Hannoband® series, which successfully passed all relevant tests, even one in which the product was exposed to outdoor weather for 20 years. Installed as sealing tape between the aluminium facade and the timber construction supporting the facade, the tape will give excellent service for many decades of years.
