Smart rainwater management solves more problems in the cities

In the coming years, many larger cities have to come up with solutions for the challenges of increasing amounts of rainwater and more extreme weather. By implementing solutions that help protect densely populated and developed areas against flooding, the development of the square serves as an example to be followed when the rest of the city is to be climate-proofed. By actively making use of a city’s green areas in the fight against pollution and securing the city against cloudbursts, smart ways of handling rainwater solve a great deal of the problems, cities today are facing.

A focus on quality and sustainability

The 8500 m2 modern domicile Formula 1 contains a car showroom and offices and was built with a focus on quality and sustainability.

The top of the building is equipped with solar cells and a green rooftop terrace. Around the building, rain gardens and trees create an inviting green area for the employees and passers-by to enjoy.

Threshold channel system

Canyon (Milford DK, NO, ENG), our threshold channel, was installed around the building.

The system has been developed in close collaboration with construction experts, leading architects, and contractors and solves all requirements and recommendations that most new buildings have.

Canyon meets all requirements 

The advantages of Canyon are many. It provides optimal ventilation of the foundation while ensuring easy access for inspections and repairs.

The system also solves the requirement of level-free access and makes Formula 1 an easily accessible building for everyone to use.

The console is a form-cast frame made from 100% recycled, industrially sourced plastic. It can be clicked easily into the channel and increases stability throughout the whole system.

Black-painted gratings

Open glass facades characterize the car house for the passers-by to enjoy the inside exhibition of cars. The threshold channels are powder-coated in a black finish to match the building's dark and clean look.   

Canyon comes in various colors and can be a unique element that can enhance the style of the architecture.
