Economy and easy maintenance in Barcelona Design Centre
The Design Museum, or Design Hub as it is now called, is situated on a sloping site, with a drop of about seven meters, on the coastal side of Barcelona’s Plaça de les Glòries, beside Jean Nouvelle’s Agbar tower.
In the emblematic environment in which it is located, the maintenance of the urban environment is a concern of CLABSA, public entity which deals with the planning, development and operation of the sewer network of Barcelona.
This has been the reason why the construction company has opted for F250 ULMA channel with hinged grating. These gratings are very easy to open and facilitate access into the channel for cleaning, resulting in a significant savings in maintenance costs. This channel also has a high hydraulic capacity.
