KAT is an integral and innovative climate control system for commercial kitchens that ensures minimal energy consumption.

The warm air from our kitchen is cleaned and reused. The KAT system uses a special liquid that is atomized in the kitchen exhaust duct. The liquid is made entirely of natural products. The grease vapors and odors bind to the liquid and no longer adhere to the duct surfaces. The KAT filter captures the liquid, allowing the heat from the clean air stream to be transferred to the cold supply air. This way, we save up to 80% on heating demand. KAT also minimizes fire hazards and deodorizes the air up to 90%.

Roof garden

Green roofs improve our environmental and living conditions. Our rooftop garden filters harmful substances from the air and retains rainfall, significantly reducing peak runoff. The design for the external green space is entirely dependent on local precipitation throughout all seasons of the year, which is why a specific selection of flowering plants and herbs suitable for this purpose has been chosen. Animals also find their way to this piece of nature!

Bee hotel

The insect hotel on our rooftop garden is specially designed to accommodate various insects. In the pine cones and small pieces of wood, especially spiders and insects like ladybugs and earwigs will nest. The different tubes provide a grateful place for solitary bees to leave their eggs in. Bees first leave pollen in the tube of the insect hotel. Then they lay an egg and seal the chamber. The bees then repeat the ritual of leaving pollen and laying an egg until the tube is full. Then the tube is sealed on the outside. When the first laid egg hatches, the larva feeds on the pollen. When the larva pupates into a bee, they wait for the passage to the outside to be clear. Once the last laid egg hatches, the exit can be opened and all the bees can go outside.

Nesting box for swifts

Research has shown that swifts like to use cavity blocks as nesting boxes. This cavity block has been specially developed in collaboration with the Swallow Advisory Bureau to create new nesting opportunities in buildings. During the construction of Hotel Nijmegen-Lent, 20 nesting boxes for swifts were installed on the northeastern side of the lower part of the hotel.

Roosting boxes for the pipistrelle bat

Inside, the cabinet is divided by different walls, creating four spaces. These different spaces are necessary because bats live and breed in small colonies. In addition, this cabinet is equipped with mesh through which bats can crawl inside.Two small bat boxes are embedded in the facade of the base building.

Of TT68: A high-temperature heat pump (electric) with significantly higher efficiency for the generation of domestic hot water and heating water. Together with an intelligent control energy management system, the TT68 ensures optimal energy efficiency for the production of high-temperature domestic hot water and heating (70ºC). This results in an improved energy performance of 40% in the built environment and new construction compared to competing high-temperature heat pump technologies. And up to 50% to 60% energy performance improvement compared to existing buildings that generate heat with a modern central heating system.

De Ocean Tech serie watergekoelde koelmachines, warmtepompen en condensorloze koelmachines zijn ontworpen voor binnen opstelling (1P22 beschermingsklasse). Alle units zijn gemaakt in overeenstemming met de ISO 9001-normen. Het frame Is vervaardigd van gegalvaniseerd staalplaat en onderworpen aan een fosfor ontvettingsbehandeling, gespoten met een polyester poedercoating en ingebakken bij 180C om een duurzame weerbestendige afwerking te verkrijgen. Het ontwerp van de unit bestaat uit een akoestisch beklede ruimte waarin de compressoren en de warmte wisselaars zijn ondergebracht. De units zijn voorzien van hermetische compressoren. De compressoren zijn uitgerust met carterverwarmingen en worden op rubber trillingsdempers gemonteerd in de akoestisch geïsoleerde behuizing met afneembare zijpanelen om ongehinderde toegang voor de service te verlenen. De verdamper is vervaardigd van roestvrijstalen plaat gesoldeerd met koper, uitgevoerd met één enkel koelcircuit en één watercircuit. Alle verdampers zijn voorzien van een handbediende ontluchter op de bovenkant en een aftapkraan aan de onderkant. De verdamper is voorzien van een externe thermische isolatie en anti-condenserende bekleding voorzien delta P schakelaar (stromingsschakelaar). Alle gebruikte verdampers voldoen aan de PED-richtlijn drukvaten en zijn 'CE" gecertificeerd. De condensor is vervaardigd van roestvrijstalen plaat gesoldeerd met koper, met één enkel koelcircuit en één watercircuit. Bij de warmtepompversie is de condensor uitgerust met een externe thermische isolatie en anticondenserende bekleding. Alle gebruikte condensors voldoen aan de PED-richtlijn drukvaten besluit en zijn "CE" gecertificeerd.
