Pleasant air and perfect sound absorption are essential factors in office rooms. The Emskirchen-based ceiling manufacturer Vogl Deckensysteme offers highly effective acoustic ceilings including air purification for requirements like this. One of these ceiling systems was installed in the new headquarters of the Graz-based waste disposal company Saubermacher.
People spend a major part of their lifetime at work. We installed a ceiling construction which creates a pleasant room climate and provides ideal acoustics at the Graz-based Saubermacher headquarters. The headquarters are vis-à-vis the Graz airport. The company is one of Austria's leading disposal and recycling companies. Founded as waste collector with five employees in 1979, the company has grown to become an international family business with approx. 3,900 employees in Austria and abroad and approx. 60 company sites.
The Graz-based architecture firm Bramberger was the responsible architect. They focused on a completely ecological solution. The climate-active, certified, energy-saving building was constructed in cooperation with the members of the managing board Hans Roth and Frank Dicker. A photovoltaic installation will not only supply energy to the office building of the ECOPORT, it will also supply energy to the electric car charging points at the building's parking lots. The solar power station will also improve the climate in the atrium. To this end, thin-layer photovoltaic cells were mounted to the glass roof to provide protection from solar radiation and to generate energy.

The innovative ceiling system by the German ceiling manufacturer Vogl Deckensysteme was installed at the Saubermacher headquarters within only six months. Thomas Zach of the architectural firm Bramberger, the architect responsible for the construction project, had the dry construction contractor Manfred Schreiner from Graz install appropriate ceilings to cover an area of approx. 2,000 m². The dry construction experts mounted an acoustic design ceiling with good sound adsorption properties to a rigid, even ceiling framework. They selected the perforation pattern 8/18Q with a perforated area of 19.8% for this. The acoustic design panels are furthermore backed with black acoustic fleece.
"The high acoustic performance of an acoustic design ceiling makes such a ceiling the non-plus-ultra in dry construction!", Vogl Deckensysteme's product manager Benedikt Roos described this construction project.
