A new Brussels Airport handling and office building for Swissport, designed by Archipelago and Group Infrabo and built by Cordeel Hoeselt NV has been completed in 2021. As one of the most eye-catching parts of the building, the open structure has been covered with ultra-high performance concrete in dark grey color produced by C-concrete.
The UHPC panels were made with Cementir’s InWhite product-Aalborg Extreme® premixed concrete with a dimension of 4.7m x 1.5m x 0.15m, the slim web panels allow plenty of sunlight indoors while keep the privacy of the office environment. Building envelop of level 2-5 is covered with precast concrete panels made with Cementir’s Sinai White Cement and produced by C-concrete as well. The precast concrete façade with a sense of design has lighted up the whole building with an impression of simple, solid and atmosphere.
