Multifunctional lightweight hall
The challenge of the project was to ensure that the canteen at MTU Aero Engines AG continued to operate smoothly during the construction of the new building. An innovative mobile solution was needed for the period from demolition to completion. Initially, kitchen containers were considered, but in order to offer maximum flexibility and sufficient space, a multifunctional lightweight hall was chosen. This impressive hall, with a floor area of 110 x 30 metres and an eaves height of 5.2 metres, ultimately provided space for the entire canteen operation.
Space solution with added value
The lightweight hall was not only used as a place to serve food, but also provided space for social rooms, offices, storage, washing-up areas and a production kitchen. Air conditioning ensured a pleasant working environment, while intelligent room planning and workflow design ensured that both guests in the canteen and employees in the offices were optimally catered for at all times. The challenge was compounded by the fact that completion and the start of operations coincided with the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. Thanks to well-thought-out planning, all necessary safety measures were easily integrated into the process.
A concept with a future
The successful implementation of this project led to another positive development. Thanks to the successful collaboration and the convincing concept, Telia has now been commissioned with another project: the delivery and management of a canteen for the next four years. This demonstrates the satisfaction of our partner MTU Aero Engines AG, its trust in our innovative solutions and our ability to provide excellent service even in challenging times.
