Anyone who builds an industrial building creates far more than just additional space: improving production processes, combining storage areas, remaining flexible - and acting economically and sustainably at the same time. This is exactly where our expertise comes in.
Every project for an industrial building begins with an analysis of your requirements: What is the primary use - production, storage or a mixture? What extensions are conceivable, what adaptations should be possible in the long term? Step by step, this results in a concept that is functional, flexible and economical. From the initial idea to the turnkey handover of your new industrial building, we provide clarity and structure.
We advise you on floor plan variants, supporting structures, floor loads, energy and ventilation systems - always with the overall project in mind. It's not just the investment that counts, but also the operating costs over the entire service life of your industrial building. We use digital tools such as BIM to create transparency and speed. The result: a customised industrial building that adapts to your processes, grows with your requirements and ensures long-term success.
BUILDING FUNCTIONAL INDUSTRIAL HALLS - Customisable. Economical. Durable.
Industrial halls need to adapt flexibly to different production and logistics processes. Variable floor plans create the framework for efficient processes and high cost-effectiveness.
The supporting structure ensures stability even with large spans. Roof solutions and wall solutions are combined in such a way that they fulfil the functional requirements of production, storage and logistics.
The hall can be customised to individual requirements with equipment elements such as crane runway girders, floor slabs or large window fronts. This increases functionality and offers scope for architectural design.
High-strength steel ensures that the construction remains light and robust at the same time. Lower transport costs, simplified assembly and short construction times make industrial halls a particularly economical solution.
HOW MUCH WILL YOUR INDUSTRIAL HALL COST?
At first glance, building an industrial hall seems like a major investment. But the construction costs are only part of the equation. The ongoing operating costs are crucial: energy, maintenance, servicing, taxes and administration. Added to this are site conditions, equipment and the energy efficiency of the building. These factors have a significant impact on the cost of industrial buildings.
You should, therefore, not only keep an eye on the construction costs, but also on the entire life cycle. The central question is: "How economically does your industrial building function over many years?"
Astron supports you with this. We use CYPRION and other analysis tools to simulate different scenarios, calculate the long-term costs of industrial buildings and identify potential savings. This gives you a sound basis for accurately calculating the costs of building an industrial building.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS - straight to the point
The construction of an industrial building requires compliance with numerous regulations. These include building regulations such as the building code, fire protection guidelines, health and safety regulations as well as structural and energy efficiency requirements. The DIN standards for industrial buildings also play an important role. Anyone wishing to build an industrial building must also consider issues such as sound insulation, ventilation and accessibility. Astron supports building owners from planning to realisation and ensures that every industrial building meets all legal, technical and safety-related requirements - future-proof, functional and economical.
If you want to build an industrial hall, you can rely on speed, cost-effectiveness and flexibility with steel. A steel hall in system construction is tailored exactly to the requirements, can be realised in a short time and can even be dismantled or rebuilt at another location if necessary. Concrete halls only have advantages in special cases, such as extreme fire or noise protection requirements, but are significantly less adaptable. In direct comparison, the steel hall impresses with its versatility, short construction time and sustainable cost-effectiveness - the right choice for future-proof industrial buildings.
If you want to build an industrial hall, you benefit from almost unlimited flexibility. The steel construction enables free spans of up to 100 metres and building heights of up to 40 metres are possible. Floor plans can be customised to suit production or logistics processes, and materials can be combined in a variety of ways. Subsequent extensions or conversions are also possible without any problems. Astron realises industrial halls that are precisely tailored to requirements and at the same time offer architectural freedom - today and in the future.
A modern industrial hall can be built in a particularly sustainable way. Steel as the main material is 100% recyclable and offers a long service life. Complemented by efficient insulation, modern insulation systems and the use of low-maintenance materials, buildings are created with permanently low operating costs. Industrial halls can also be realised with photovoltaics, heat recovery or low-CO₂ construction methods. Astron develops sustainable hall solutions that are both ecologically sound and economical - a clear advantage for companies and the environment.
A modern industrial building is designed for a service life of more than 50 years. High-quality steel constructions ensure stability and durability, while long-lasting insulation and façade systems ensure permanently low operating costs. Low-maintenance materials further reduce costs. If requirements change, the hall can be extended, repurposed or even completely dismantled and rebuilt at another location. At the end of its life cycle, the steel used is 100% recycled - a clear advantage for sustainability and cost-effectiveness when building industrial halls.
