Waterproofing an 8-metre deep underground warehouse of Geissmann Papier in Dottikon, realised with the Drytech Tank structure.
Architects Xaver Meyer of Villmergen designed a large, purely functional three-storey building, in which the structural grid of the building had to be adapted from the outset to the logistics required inside.
The basement warehouse is used for the storage of heavy plastic rolls for the production of packaging material.
A ventilation system with mechanical exchange was installed inside the building to recover heat from the exhaust air, also in the existing factory.
The floors are impressive in terms of reinforcement, guaranteeing a payload of 2.5 tonnes per square metre on the ground floor and 1.5 tonnes per square metre on the first floor for the equally heavy rolls of plastic delivered and stored on pallets.
