Plafotherm® heated/chilled ceiling with concrete core activation and a concealed supply air system within the ceiling void. The company headquarters are located at the Richtplatz, once an industrial zone. Several bridges connect the multi-storey building and the low-rise building, thus creating a diverse working environment for the approximately 1,700 employees of the insurance group. Heating – Cooling – Ventilation The concrete ceiling is part of the system‘s climate concept and acts as a storage medium. The heat conducting profiles are connected to the concrete ceiling which cools down during the night, thus storing cooling energy. By day, the supply air system transforms the stored cooling energy into cold air that seeps through the perforation of the ceiling panel and cools down the room below. However, it was not only the system’s elaborate technology, but also its impressive design that left a lasting impression on the judges. Wiel Artes Architects opted for an interior concept that features an embossed metal ceiling with three-dimensional effects and creates a comfortable working environment. The ornamented ceiling brings to mind traditional stucco ceilings or painted overhangs and has many advantages: Thanks to their extraordinary texture, the panels are extremely rigid and even very large ones do not deflect. The ventilation components are not installed on the underside of the ceiling and do therefore not disturb the harmony of the design. Instead, waste air gets sucked out through a joint. Each panel is particularly easy to remove in case of maintenance and may be furnished with heating/cooling meanders. It was the 14th time that two certain architectural journals awarded the Innovation Award for Architecture and Technology on the occasion of the ISH 2013 and in cooperation with the Messe Frankfurt. The competition was open to architects and designers as well as industrial concerns and manufacturing companies in the field of sanitation and HVAC. Lindner was proud to submit the customised Plafotherm® heated/chilled ceiling with concrete core activation and a concealed supply air system within the ceiling void. The sophisticated technology and the elegant design of the ceiling panel won favour with the jury which placed Lindner in the top category. ]]> RSS News Heating and cooling technology Wed, 22 May 2013 09:37:00 +0200 http://redesign.lindner-group.com/en_NL/news/news-detail.html?no_cache=1&tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=5283&cHash=d2d3c3abb1827ebe2efb97dd6e81cf6f Safety against terrorism is playing an important part at locations where crowds of people come...

Lindner FLOOR and more® - Functionality at its best. All options laid out.
The FLOOR and more® panels are manufactured from calcium sulphate at our factory in Dettelbach. Our company uses the very latest production equipment and is one of the world's leading manufacturers of floor systems. A key contributory factor to the quality of dry floors is accuracy in terms of tolerance – achieved by the high technological standards used in production. Environmentally-friendly quality.
Lindner's excellent quality is not left to chance, but is ensured by a sophisticated quality management system, demonstrated by our certification to ISO 9001:2000. Samples taken during production are tested against a full range of technical parameters such as stability, breaking load, dimensional accuracy, adhesive values, etc. (over 100 criteria in all). Our labs are equipped with ultra-modern test equipment, and constantly test edge trims, adhesives, zinc layer thickness etc. Independent institutes test all systems to the accepted standards for noise, fire safety and mechanical resistance. Tests meeting European standards and certification for almost all European countries are part of our portfolio. Pedestals
The substructure is an important component of every system floor. The pedestals create the cavity needed to accommodate the services. Lindner metal pedestals can be adjusted to almost any height, therefore compensating for any unevenness in the subfloor. From design to manufacture, including the galvanisation – we produce our pedestal range entirely in-house. We manufacture highly accurate pedestals for hollow floors. Our many years of experience ensure high load-bearing capacity and excellent durability for all our products. Lindner systems can be combined with one another in many ways, and supplemented with different reinforcement profiles. Typical areas of use:

• Atriums and reception areas
• Museums
• Training and research rooms
• Office and design areas
• Industrial and workshops

Scope of works Facade types and scope

• 4,800 m² bespoke Lindner facade, surface powder coated
• 900 individual facade elements including sunblinds
• Rain screens
• Ceiling area
• Maximum sound insulation performance of R‘w = 46 dB
• Overall facade U-value (Ucw) of 1.0 W/m²K
• 180 kg vent-opening elements with non-visible hinges

Technical details In order to provide sufficient stability against the vibrations caused by passing trains, the sunblinds were innovatively integrated into the facade profile. As cleaning from the outside adjacent to the railway is not permitted, every element is openable for cleaning purposes, with the hinges being cleverly hidden in the element. As well as the standard facade bracket, customized brackets were also designed to avoid clashing with the building‘s columns. Installation The panels at the ends of the building are fully glazed black enameled panels. Installation of elements started in January 2012 and was completed in April 2012, with work continuing uninterrupted during the coldest months in temperatures below -10°C.

On the... Lindner Group, Arnstorf Ten young women from nearby schools accepted Lindner’s invitation to take part at the 3rd Girls’ Day at the Company’s headquarters in Arnstorf. To start off, Michaela Heiß, Industrial Training Manager at Lindner, informed the excited pupils about the Company and the trainings that Lindner offers. After a guided tour through the factory, Georg Holzleitner, Head of the Technical Training Centre, took the girls and their designated “mentors” to the TTC where the mentors explained the girls how to work with the different tools and assisted them in trying their hand at welding, sculpting a pterosaur (garden art) and crafting a sheet metal box and a tape dispenser. Lindner Group, Dettelbach It was the 3rd time that the Lindner Group in Dettelbach organised a open day for girls – the Girls’ Day –, but this year we reoriented ourselves and initiated the first Boys’ Day in Dettelbach. The young men interested in taking part could register for the event using the Boys’ Day online portal. The Company wanted to demonstrate some typical assignments within an industrial enterprise and to give the pupils a better understanding (in theory and in practice) of what it is like to train to become an Industrial/European Clerk in Dettelbach. Ralph Peckmann began the day with a company presentation and Stefanie Menig and Anna Sättler continued with a workshop on the two occupations, where they could listen and respond to each of the young men. At lunch, the participants talked about what they learned that day and took off on a guided tour through the factory. Next were two practical sessions where the boys got a taste of what it is like to work in the following departments: Purchasing, Shipping, Production Planning and Customer Advisory Service as well as the office of the managing director and the product delivery of floor systems. The input phases alternated with little exercises that gave the youths the opportunity to experience the daily routine in the Company. At the end of the day, the participants talked about their impressions and gave feedback as to whether or not the day lived up to their expectations and Stefanie Menig presented the boys with a small going-away gift.

A Scandinavian Oasis in Berlin. The Scandic Spirit. Transferring the operator’s corporate identity to the hotel’s interior, where it can be fully experienced by the guests, is vital for any hotel project. Thus, this progressive hotel chain deploys innovative thinking to differentiate itself from the majority of competitors. Scandic totally admits itself to its Nordic origin with this „Scandinavian Oasis“ in Berlin. The self-commitment to environmental compatibility derives from the Swedes’ tradition and their love of nature. The visitor finds himself amidst the Scandinavian nature. Bright colours and clean shapes represent winterly mountain sceneries and form a contrast to the harmonious design in the warmer areas: there, guests can relax in lush green summer colours or autumnal warm, earthy tones. This rhythm of the seasons runs through the decoration of the rooms and generates an impressive flair. The mere size of the Scandic Berlin requires for consistent standardisation on the inside and the outside. At the same time, and in contrast to public building projects, the marketing potential of the hotel has to be considered at all times. The fit-out and the selection of the furniture are very important aspects in this regard. From the guest rooms’ interior to the equipment of the public areas, the quality of the implementation has to reflect the operator’s brand identity and design level. The Scandic Berlin has a total of 563 rooms, of which 60 are barrier-free, 128 Superior Rooms, 10 Junior Suites and 1 Executive Suite. The divisible ballroom with its large roof terrace, 20 conference rooms, a restaurant, the lobby and a bar make the hotel appealing to both leisure and business visitors. Architecture and design – with good conscience. As the user of this building, Scandic underlines the claim of being the industry’s leader in sustainability. The environmental quality of this construction is not limited to the use of ecologically friendly materials. The influence of Scandic’s socio-cultural competence has been just as important to the whole concept: thoughtful solutions for visitors suffering from allergy, for wheelchair users or people with other special needs have been integrated in 60 rooms and in all public areas to provide for a pleasant stay. Families with children are warmly welcomed at the Scandic Berlin with offers like diaper changing tables, a games room and the children‘s menu at the restaurant. Parents who are accompanied by their teenage children can book separate young person’s rooms at special rates. Everything from one source. Lindner Hotels and Resorts. For decades investors, operators and their architects have been trusting Lindner with the translation of their ambitious plans into practice. All these projects have one thing in common: each one has been unique. Upon the client’s request, the formation of a project consortium with two building shell constructors was the starting point for eventually carrying out the interior fitout. The early involvement of Lindner in the overall project successfully avoided interface problems during the construction phase and later in the installation of the FF & E for the public areas as well as for the guest areas. Works carried out (excerpt):

• Detailed planning and project management
• Suspended ceilings
• Dry walls and wall cladding
• Wooden doors and tubular frame doors
• Floor systems
• Insulation
• Painting
• Fitting and metal works
• All furniture and fixtures for the guest rooms and public areas
• Loose furnishings such as curtains, lamps, mirrors, pillows, living plant walls

Turning visions into reality – as partner of the investor. The Scandic Berlin Potsdamer Platz is characteristic for the demands of an investor involved in the international hotel industry. For setting up the Scandic Berlin, they chose to award the task to a strong, financially stable partner with many years of experience in undertaking large-scale projects. Because of the complexity of this high standard building, the investor aimed for bundling the finishing works with one single partner, resulting in less time for completion, close adherence to tight schedules while achieving highest quality of workmanship. He was taking it for granted that this partner would speak the language of his architects and turn the ideas of the operator’s designer into hotel reality. In opting for Lindner the investor made use of the Company’s project experience, comprehensive capacities for research and development as well as expertise in quality, from as early as tender phase through to project completion. The result: effective processes for an economically advantageous project management. A result we are happy to share. When buildings are financed by investors, architects and designers face the important responsibility to decorate them appropriate for their intended use and to furnish them with a most unique character. At the Scandic Berlin Lindner was granted the opportunity to turn these ideas into custom-built reality. We could draw on our extensive experience with regard to engineering, material, safety standards and economic efficiency in interior fit-out. In this way, for instance, the novel Lindner real wood veneered panels with tested A2 fire resistance classification were used for wall cladding in the guest corridors and for the lining of the ballroom. Lindner started the interior work in June 2009. On the day of its scheduled opening on 1 October 2010 the hotel was already fully booked ... serving happy guests. Lindner has been building superior hotels for over two decades – from the refined shell construction to the opening. At the Scandic Berlin we conducted the entire performance chain and proved again: Lindner stands for large and even larger complete solutions, extensive experience in construction and furnishings, economic strength as well as a competitive priceperformance ratio.
