TROX was recognised
by the jurors with two Architecture and Technology Innovation Award 2009, which
will be presented as part of ISH in Frankfurt/Main. TROX GmbH, in cooperation
with the architect's office Collignon GmbH, received the 1st Innovation Prize
for Architecture and Technology in the building services category for its
decentralised ventilation system in a refurbishment project at Feldberstraße 35 in Frankfurt.
The other Innovation Prize for Architecture and Technology was conferred
as a special award to TROX GmbH in cooperation with Ingenhoven Architects for
the chilled diffuser integrated into the sill in the newly built Sky Office in
Düsseldorf.
The prize was given in recognition of the
architecturally ambitious, openly designed decentralised ventilation unit which
brings together in a single technical unit all the basic functionalities
required for typical refurbishment projects from the 60s and 70s. These include
supply functions (outside air), indoor air addition as well as heating, cooling
and filtering.
This unit for air-water
ventilation systems, integrated into the room air conditioning concept of the
high-rise building, which works in conjunction with a compressed, double-shell
facade solution and component cooling, fulfils the most demanding requirements
in terms of aesthetic and yield. In addition, the mixture of a central supply
of fresh air and secondary air in the room ensures comfortable and
cost-efficient operation. |
