GRL Beringen

The temporary joint venture Strabag - Keulen H. - GRL  carried out a new-build project for GRL (Glass Recycling & Logistics) at their site in Beringen.

The assignment consisted of structural works, including the construction of a new glass recycling plant, the creation of concrete lodges with a steel canopy structure, foundation works for a production building, structural works for an office building, and infrastructure works.

Sustainable

In consultation with the client, it was decided to construct the steel structure of all three buildings using 100% circular steel. For this steel structure, this choice of material resulted in a calculated CO₂ reduction of 86.3%.

The basic contract was completed in September 2024. The temporary joint venture received an additional contract, which was delivered in May 2025. This additional assignment included technical installations for the lodges and production hall, technical works and finishing of the office building, as well as several minor works.
