Below are selected projects demonstrating the benefits of Geoplast foundation solutions in real-world applications.
Kellerai Bozen winery, Bolzano, Italy
Defender used 65 % less gravel to protect the underground production areas of Kellerei Bozen, Italy’s first ClimateHouse-certified winery, ensuring long-term wall ventilation, drainage, and structural durability. Its integrated system replaced traditional 20 cm gravel drainage layers with a 7 cm recycled plastic panel, reducing material requirements and creating a ventilated, drained cavity.
AFI Brasov shopping mall, Brasov, Romania
Multimodulo was chosen for the construction of the AFI Brasov shopping mall, located in the city center of Brasov, Romania. It was used to create the sloped floors of the mall’s parking and make crawl spaces for the stormwater management system at the same time.
H-FARM Campus School District
New Elevetor was used in the foundations of the H-FARM Campus School District in Treviso, a project designed by Zanon Architetti Associati as one of Europe’s leading innovation hubs along the River Sile. Bringing together education, sports, start-ups, and extensive green spaces, the campus benefited from a foundation solution that reduced transport requirements by 97%.
