Project: Seagate Technology
Architect:
Disk drive maker Seagate Technology expanded its Singapore-based recording media plant, which eventually will churn out more than half of the recording media needed for the company's disk drives. The expanded factory began production in the third quarter of 2004. Established in 1996, the Singapore plant was Scotts Valley, Calif.-based Seagate's first recording media operations (RMO) facility outside of North America. It is also the company's largest media manufacturing facility. The new plant will be built close to the company's existing facilities at Woodlands. Today, RMO Woodlands has a staff strength of over 5,000 employees and is Seagate’s largest media manufacturing facility. Completed in 2004, in total 8000m2 of Kalzip roofing was used, in conjunction with 6000m2 of TR facade profiles.
Project: Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore
Architect: SAA Partnership
Football is a favourite sport for men and women in Singapore and for decades, the Jalan Besar Stadium has been the centre of attention for football. From staging international tournaments to youth development, the organisers in the city-state are doing their best to keep up with the continent’s larger countries. Built in 1932, it was closed in 1999, extensively rebuilt and reopened in 2003 with 6,000 seats. The new stadium’s most striking feature, visible from a distance, is the newly erected roof suspended over the southwest stand. The suspension bridge design with the slightly arched roof is made of Kalzip profiles.
Project: Tung Chung Cable Car Station, Lantau Island, Hong Kong
Architect: Aedas LPT Architects
In places where particular consideration has to be given to nature, cable cars make a good alternative to transport routes. That is why a cable car was the perfect solution, in Hong Kong, to connect a stretch of almost six kilometres to the island of Lantau, with its world-famous Po Lin Monastery and the Tian Tan Buddha. In line with the wishes of the client, the architecture of the stations has been designed to fit in with the surroundings. The Tung Chung Station has been built as a modern structure which is clearly influenced by tradition, featuring striking roofs and a Kalzip roof with a surface area of around 6,000 square metres
Project: Terminal 1B Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport, Mumbai, India
Architect: Hafeez Contractor
India’s economy is continually growing – as is the demand for flights between cities on the subcontinent – giving rise to the creation of a new terminal building for domestic flights in the first phase to expand Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport. The terminal houses 38 check-in desks. In front of the long, stretched out, elliptical form of the terminal, the architects adjoined a shorter, cubic structure as an entrance and service area. 10,000 square metres of Kalzip standing seam were used to roof the structure whose exterior cascades down into a waterfall of shimmering glass on the entrance side of the building.
