Drytech carried out the waterproofing of the large underground car park below the 5 new buildings on the former Gertschen site.

In the centre of Naters, five new buildings with a public car park, an information centre for visitors to the Swiss Alps Jungfrau-Aletsch UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as offices, retail space and flats were constructed on an area of 7,000 square metres.

Designed by architects N4 from Bolzano and Padua, the Aletsch Campus now houses the ‘World Nature Forum’.

The waterproof Drytech Tank structure used to build the underground car park and its ramps is designed to withstand even flooding from the Rhone.
