The slightly rough surface presents an exciting contrast to wood, metal and fabric. Fibre cement also has excellent acoustic properties. With the help of Eternit, the speaker\u2019s housing was developed successfully and then put into production.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Would you like Eternit to help you implement your project?[\/vc_column_text]\n Contact us<\/span>\n <\/a>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”70px”] \u2018The Circle\u2019 at Zurich Airport is like a small town, containing offices, hotels and retail, as well as art, culture and hospitality venues.<\/p>\n Interior \u2018greening\u2019 is given a new level of importance in this lively mix. Creaplant, a specialist in interior greening, collaborated with Eternit on this project to create 663 custom-made planters. All the planters for this project were hand-made in specific shapes and dimensions at our factory in Payerne.<\/p>\n The planters were placed in frames and loaded with beautiful greenery to form vertical gardens, giving the finished complex a feel of urban gardening.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Would you like Eternit to help you implement your project?[\/vc_column_text]\n Contact us<\/span>\n <\/a>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div> Using living plants to cover building fa\u00e7ades in large cities is an important step in dealing with climate change. The plants improve air quality and cover buildings\u2019 surfaces to make the street-level cooler. At the same time, they also help to create a more natural, healthier environment. The BeRTA\u00a9<\/sup> green fa\u00e7ade module combines greenery, planters made from Eternit fibre cement and climbing supports for plants, enabling customised \u2018greening\u2019 of existing buildings.<\/p>\n Successfully used in Vienna since 2019, the modules were originally developed by a research team as part of the \u201850 gr\u00fcne H\u00e4user\u2019 (\u201850 Green Houses\u2019) project. These climate-improving modules are now available as an all-in-one package with the highest quality guaranteed. The package includes advice, planning and construction in Vienna. In future, the package will also be offered in other cities.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Would you like Eternit to help you implement your project?[\/vc_column_text]\n Contact us<\/span>\n <\/a>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”70px”] Regular artist panels are organised as part of the city of Freiburg\u2019s art and culture scene, so a group of architects and artists came together to design an open-air auditorium on a green slope at Georges-Python-Platz. The project was intended to emphasise Freiburg\u2019s identity as a student city and offer a place for discussion.<\/p>\n This installation consists of 14 fibre cement chairs with desks connected to a central base. The setup gives the impression of an auditorium that has turned to stone over time.<\/p>\n The chairs were hand-crafted by Eternit in close collaboration with a local carpenter, who made the wooden moulds for the chairs.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Would you like Eternit to help you implement your project?[\/vc_column_text]\n Kontaktieren Sie uns<\/span>\n <\/a>\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>Vonschloo Urban Speaker<\/h3>\n
