Industry & Infrastructure

Form follows function in public spaces.

Planning and executing infrastructural buildings is a challenge. Projects such as railway stations, metro stations, tunnels or airports need to be multifunctional, attractive and blend in with the cityscape. Thousands of people come together every day in these areas. High-traffic areas demand non-slip, durable and low-maintenance building materials.

But they also need to have cleaning-friendly surfaces. This is where Hytect tiles reveal their advantages. The patented surface coating activates a natural process which cleans the air and neutralises nitric oxides and odours. Undesirable graffiti can be easily removed. Special products such as guide systems for the visually impaired provide orientation and permit barrier-free design.
