The high-quality concrete facade featuring the natural stone look of the new precast plant was made possible thanks to the use of Schöck Isolink.

When building a precast concrete plant for Marcus Riedelsheimer GmbH, the challenge was to strike a balance between design and energy efficiency. Isolink® for concrete façades from Schöck Bauteile GmbH was used to create an energy-efficient and at the same time architecturally aesthetic façade using exposed concrete. Due to the low thermal conductivity of the fiberglass composite material, thermal bridges are able to be kept to a minimum.
The new building has an area of around 905 square meters, including a production hall and a separate building for the in-house joinery and formwork construction. The new building also includes offices as well as bathrooms and meeting rooms. The building is architecturally based on the existing company headquarters. Textured formliners were used for the exposed concrete surfaces. The concrete was not tinted in order to create a visual contrast to the existing building.
