ASPORT
In recent years, the owners of "ASPORT" - a sporting goods chain - have extended their shop in
Ingeldorf, Luxembourg, several times. Having been very satisfied with three previous ASTRON
construction projects, one of which is in Wickrange, Luxembourg, the customer had no hesitation in
asking ASTRON to redevelop its existing premises to meet local demand and to present a newer image!
Overall, the customer wanted to:
• Enlarge the sales area
• Harmonize the architecture of the existent buildings
• Create a well-laid-out, light and welcoming shop area
• Mirror the architectural style of its sales outlet in Wickrange to create an architectural
identity of the brand ASPORT
• Not interrupt any day-to-day sales activity!
Having analyzed the different options possible, it was decided that the fastest, most
effective and most economical solution would be to add a new building on the top of the existent
store, removing the old roof and integrating the existing buildings into one harmonized, attractive
structure! ASTRON Builder
Scholtes et Brauch S.A. in association with Butz GmbH took only two months to
realize the complete renovation project. The shop did not have to close for one single day because
of the alteration work; a truly remarkable performance! Today, ASPORT benefits from a much larger
sales area that is characterized by its dramatic aesthetics, including external "architectural"
structural framing. The wall system is a combination of horizontal Sinutherm panels and vertical
Polar panels. The entire
building, viewed from the adjoining main road, presents a modern and creative image, just what the
owners wanted! A real success, this interesting renovation project protected the shop and its
contents from bad weather during construction, kept the shop in continuous operation and,
importantly, improved the thermal and acoustical insulation.
