Requirements and solutions
Emsland Arena
SAFE ALL-ROUNDER IN EMSLAND
The arena is a solid construction with reinforced concrete ceilings, load-bearing walls and columns. It consists of the event hall, an upstream foyer and the service areas.
With a floor area of 5,500 m², it offers multiple utilisation options. The stage can be freely positioned and adapted in size as required. LED strips mounted under the cantilevered roof and grazing light on the façade give the hall a glowing appearance in the dark.
Project | Emsland Arena |
Property developer | City of Lingen |
Architect | pbr Planungsbüro Rohling AG |
Completion date | 2013 |
Requirements profile | High demands on fire protection, quality, functionality and individuality |
Novoferm products | Fire protection doors, sheet steel doors and aluminium tubular frame doors |
SPECIAL SOLUTION: ALUMINIUM TUBULAR FRAME DOORS
The construction of the arena called for maximum safety and functionality. The variety of possible uses required a customised fire protection concept.
One of the particular challenges here was the special solutions for the fire protection doors in the outdoor area. Where thousands of people come together, escape and rescue routes must fulfil high requirements.
All fire protection doors were originally to be made entirely of sheet steel. In practice, this was not possible due to the unfavourable width/height ratio of the door format. The experienced system provider Novoferm solved the problem individually and convinced the client with a customised aluminium tubular frame door. With this, the problematic door format could be solved safely and with completely identical functionality.
Fire protection doors with dual function
All external doors in the escape tunnels were equipped with a dual function. Equipped with a swing door drive and smoke detector, they can be opened with the smoke extraction function if smoke develops in the event of a fire - automatically and centrally controlled. To ensure that this also works in the event of a fire when the power is switched off, they are equipped with their own separate battery and a panic function. The combination of these sophisticated special solutions makes the innovative Arena fire protection concept a success.
Novoferm, one of Europe's leading system suppliers for doors, gates, frames and operators, presented itself at the Emsland Arena as a complete supplier of fire protection and multifunctional doors.
A total of 392 Novoferm doors were installed. Novoferm not only impressed with its customised, integrated property solutions, but also with innovative detailed solutions for this challenging project.

ISS-DOME Düsseldorf
DÜSSELDORF'S NEW MULTIFUNCTIONAL HALL IN A CLASS OF ITS OWN
Building description
A venue of superlatives - that is the new ISS Dome. The futuristic-looking structure is impressive, the technical equipment (especially air conditioning and lighting) is innovative and the utilisation is highly flexible. At 1,800 square metres, the event area meets international requirements for sports competitions. The interior can be converted for cultural or business events within eight hours. The ISS Dome, which has excellent transport connections, can accommodate up to 13,400 visitors.
Construction
The ISS Dome combines modern architecture with maximum practicality. The majority of the hall is clad in a metal façade that follows the organic shape of the building.
Parts of the façade are semi-transparent, while additional louvre sections create striking accents. Foil roofs provide pleasant lighting conditions. A glass construction was chosen for the entrance façades. For the aluminium-clad roof alone, 1,000 tonnes of lattice girders were used.

Roller shutters
Roller shutters hermetically seal off the catering and sales areas after business hours. TH80 roller shutters with double-walled, heat-insulating foam-filled slats made of natural aluminium with a clear lacquer coating were used for this project. Novoferm Riexinger offers the entire range of modern roller shutters tailored to the intended use: optionally made of aluminium or steel, single or double-walled, with glazing or ventilation slots.
High-speed roller shutters made of PVC or aluminium with opening speeds of up to 2.0 m/sec. are also available.

Novoferm Riexinger offers a wide range of approved single and double-leaf doors in both T30 and T90 designs.
The galvanised and powder-coated corner frame is part of the standard package. Of course, other frame and threshold designs are also available.
Special designs are possible at any time in accordance with the structural requirements, e.g: Fire-resistant glazing, burglar-resistant equipment, panic locks, door closer systems, fixed upper section, electric strike, hold-open systems and much more.
