Technological Park
Architecture and Sustainability: Actiu Technological Park
The Actiu Technology Park, designed by Jose Maria Tomas LLavador, has been based on sustainability and self- sufficient use of natural resources right from the design stage. Rain water is collected from the roofs and stored in cisterns for irrigation and industrial use. Europe?s largest rooftop photovoltaic plant was installed with state-of- the-art technology and output, which generates 7 million kwh of solar energy, 6 times Actiu?s requirements. There has been large-scale planting of trees, where low-water- consumption native species abound, as well as thousands of small aromatic plants. The buildings are designed to make the most of the natural light, through skylights in the roof and glazed facades.
Actiu Technological Park, new ways of working and producing. A project that was born to respond to the manufacturing, logistic and corporate activities of businesses; a unique architectonic project, capable of transforming the scale and substance of the entire corporate philosophy; a philosophy founded on the pillars of sustainability, the promotion of more human working relationships and the pursuit of beauty and effectiveness on a daily basis. It is with this in mind that transparency, light and openness are the recurrent themes running through the Actiu Technological Park ideology.
