Project: Community Centre Mannheim

Since October 2007, the city of Mannheim has a new protestant community centre. Its façade is made of glass elements and smooth white concrete components standing in front of the glass elements. These components have the shape of blades of grass moving in the wind to reflect the open-minded character of the community.

The combination of both elements, concrete and glass, leaves a bright and inviting impression.

Precast concrete cladding panels from Hering

Architectural concrete supplied by Hering stands for quality

Concrete has become an integral part as construction material for buildings, both for façade design and for structural prefabricated reinforced concrete components. Individually designed buildings with imposing façades are a standard feature of architecture. Whether curtain façades or sandwich façades, acidified, sand-blasted, polished, washed or smooth-shuttered surfaces, Hering makes it possible. An image in photo concrete or a logo in relief concrete? No problem – Hering can do it.

Hering - a leader in developing new concrete technologies

With its thin walled betoShell® GFRC façade panel, Hering has succeeded in taking a big step forward in the development of façade technology. Being only 20 mm, it is perfect for remedial work on façades while being equivalent to conventional concrete façade elements in terms of its properties.

Our products for the architectural concrete sector are not yet available in the USA.
