Maximum efficiency and sustainability under a textile bulk goods hall

    An AGROTEL profile girder hall with a photovoltaic system is in use at Swietelsky AG in Lambrechten.

    The project at a glance

    Robust construction for use in the construction industry

    The asphalt mixing plant of Swietelsky AG in Lambrechten (Upper Austria) recently installed an AGROTEL profile girder hall - precisely tailored to the requirements of a modern bulk goods warehouse. With a width of 24.40 metres and a length of 30.00 metres, the hall offers generous space for storage and logistical processes. It was erected on stable bulk walls made of concrete blocks with a height of 3.20 metres. This results in an impressive ridge height of 11.55 metres in total - ideal for accessing and tipping material with large construction machinery.

    Intelligent space utilisation for high handling capacity

    The AGROTEL profile girder hall fits perfectly into the asphalt production processes. Thanks to the high access clearance, even large tipper vehicles can drive into the hall without any problems and unload the material directly into the designated storage boxes. The textile roofing reliably protects the bulk material from the effects of the weather, such as rain or snow, which ensures material quality in the long term and minimises losses due to moisture.

    Photovoltaics on the hall roof - sustainability ready for series production

    A particular highlight of this project: a photovoltaic system was installed on the roof of the textile hall - impressive proof that functionality and sustainability are not a contradiction in terms at AGROTEL. The construction of the profiled girder hall is designed in such a way that PV systems can also be integrated safely and efficiently. Swietelsky AG is thus making an active contribution to its own supply of renewable energy - directly at the point of consumption. The combination of well thought-out hall construction and environmentally friendly power generation makes this project a pioneering example for the construction and raw materials industry.

    Conclusion: Flexible, functional, future-orientated

    With the AGROTEL profiled girder hall, Swietelsky AG in Lambrechten has realised a tailor-made solution for its site – robust, durable and with a clear focus on efficiency and sustainability. The hall impressively demonstrates how textile building systems can meet the high demands of the construction industry and at the same time offer potential for the energy transition.

    FAQ`s

    The textile bulk goods hall used by Swietelsky AG impresses with its high functionality, quick assembly and adaptability to existing infrastructure. Thanks to the generous ridge height of 11.55 metres, it is ideal for large construction machines – a clear advantage for day-to-day operations in the construction industry.

    Yes, as the project in Lambrechten shows, photovoltaic systems can easily be installed on AGROTEL warehouses. This makes the textile bulk goods hall not only a flexible storage solution for the construction industry, but also an active contribution to sustainable energy generation at the site.

    The textile bulk goods hall for the construction industry was built on solid bulk goods walls made of concrete blocks with a height of 3.20 metres. This combination of a robust base and flexible roofing provides a durable and resilient solution – ideal for the requirements of asphalt and bulk goods storage.
