Horn Glass Industries’ expansion of its Plössberg, Germany, facility is progressing, say company officials. Workers are plastering the inside and outside of the masonry and completing the electrical installation. All components in the building will have a digital accessibility; lighting, heating, blinds, locking and alarm systems, can all be controlled digitally, say officials.
The building’s system is not cooled by air conditioning, but by component activation. Pre-installed pipes with cold water cool the rooms without draught or noise. The integrated ventilation system ensures a pleasant room climate thanks to constant but unobtrusive air circulation.
Sixty employees will find a new vocational home in the complex. Smaller office units, fitted for two to three people, instead of open-plan offices enable the teams to create an inspiring and productive working atmosphere. The project is scheduled to be finished by mid of 2020.
