Upcycling Gemert- Gemert, Netherland Architect: Denkkamer Architectuur & Onderzeok
The process of turning biomass, spent mushroom compost into soil improver at Upcycling Gemert, reputed mushroom manufacture in Gemert, Netherland witness a functional façade at its premises with translucent façade system which is semi-transparent. The drying process of this conversion of bio-mass to fertilizer releases a large amount of heat into the surrounding which is used for neighbouring mushroom nurseries as a fuel. The design of the translucent façade aimed at providing visibility to how it functions inside the tunnel. When the drying process progress, the temperature climb up to 80°C which makes it extremely hard to reach to the machines. By lighting up the façade of the service area with LED lights help to determine the stage of the process and how it develops and reduced CO² amount is projected on to the translucent façade using matrix display.
Wallspan Lightclad, a translucent Rodeca cladding system helps to achieve functional benefits beyond it’s featured beauty. Our system is excellent for manufacturing plants to tackle the major problems many manufacturing facilities faced. It is easy to install as it comes with tongue and groove connection and also can be reused at a different place with removing panels from an existing panelled wall. Our light clad sets a great example of a façade beyond aesthetics with its range of other benefits it associated
