Given the indispensability of daily local supply for society, the new SPAR supermarket in Heimschuh, Austria, is also a prime example of contemporary construction. Buildings in this category offer great potential in terms of reducing CO2 emissions during construction and operation. 

Today, more than ever, energy-saving building technology and ecological, high-performance building materials are available.

In addition to the recently built branches in Ostermiething and Duplek (Slovenia), this is another supermarket that has now been put into operation with a visually and functionally impressive wooden roof construction from KIELSTEG.

The KIELSTEG elements, which are up to 25 metres long, span the building at 18.5 metres and, with their overhang of more than 6 metres, create a spacious, weather-protected entrance area.

The natural and unclad wooden soffit of the KIELSTEG surface structure gives the interior a spacious feel. The KIELSTEG roof serves as a platform for the PV system.
