De Wijnpers
STRABAG Belgium delivered the new building for De Wijnpers, a horticultural campus in Leuven.
Our scope comprised the turnkey construction of the new building, including groundworks, structural works, finishing works and building services.
The building services included sanitary installations, gas installations, central heating and thermal installations, ventilation, air heating and cooling, electrical installations and photovoltaic (PV) panels.
The school building meets NZEB standards and is heated and cooled without fossil fuels, using a borehole thermal energy storage (BTES) field. This system extracts heat and cold from the ground through a network of pipes extending to a depth of 143 metres.
The new campus combines the school building with the landscaped outdoor environment, creating a contemporary learning environment for pupils.
