In cooperation with her French partner Highpoint Structures, Buitink Technology engineered, delivered and mounted ETFE panels for roof and wall cladding installed in the renovated "Halles de Pau".

Les Halles de Pau is a food hall serving local meals and local food products.

Why ETFE foil panels

Single layer tensed ETFE foil panels have self cleaning properties, are durable, have a high degree of transparency and are extremely light weight.

In order to resist wind and snow loads ETFE membranes are tensioned within SS cable systems.

The total surface area of the ETFE membranes is about 600 m².
