BUILDING A RECYCLING HALL IN LIGHTWEIGHT CONSTRUCTION

REQUIREMENT

Recycling and composting building

A functional building for recycling and composting was to be built for the Luxembourg waste disposal company SIDEC. The aim was to create a facility that efficiently processes organic garden and household waste while combining ecological responsibility with technical durability. The focus was on robust materials, easy maintenance and reliable protection against moisture and aggressive gases produced during the composting process.

A cost-efficient, low-energy solution was required that would simplify daily operation and remain stable in the long term. The hall needed to have an open and functional design, offer optimal working conditions and consistently support the principles of the circular economy.

RESULT

Recycling hall in durable steel construction

Astron realised an open composting hall for SIDEC with an area of around 1,000 m² in a lightweight steel hall. The hot-dip galvanised steel construction offers a high level of protection against corrosion and is specially designed for the demanding conditions in composting operations. Roof and wall panels with a protective coating ensure resistance to moisture and aggressive environmental influences - without the need for complex thermal insulation.

The clear, open architecture ensures optimum air circulation and supports efficient processes in day-to-day operations. Thanks to minimal maintenance requirements and high material durability, the hall remains functional and economical even after years of intensive use. The result is a durable, reliable building that sustainably supports the recycling and composting process.
