Design composite at the World Expo 2017

clear-PEP® panels for energy generation through algae photosynthesis

Expo 2017 takes place from June to September in Kazakhstan under the motto “Energy for the Future”. The world exhibition in Kazakhstan’s capital, Astana, is intended to contribute to an intensified awareness of energy issues. It sees itself as a signal for people, organizations and nations across borders to work together on the global challenges of the future.

Up to 5 million visitors are expected. The undisputed highlight and centrepiece of the imposing Expo area is an 80-meter high walk in glass sphere. The Swiss company Adunic has constructed several floors of the “Museum of Future Energy” in the “Sphere”. The translucent greenhouses – where energy is produced by photosynthesis using a special algal liquid – was built by the specialist for temporary structures with clear-PEP® panels. design composite thus helps to demonstrate future energy production. In addition to the optical advantages and light transmittance, clear-PEP® impresses above all with its technical characteristics such as high stability, 3D optical effects, translucence and fire resistance.

We produce sustainably.

Sustainability & ESG – Innovation for a Future-Ready Economy

Sustainability & ESG

The location of our company inspires the entire team every day to actively contribute to reducing environmental pollution. Surrounded by unspoiled mountains and meadows, design composite relied on state-of-the-art ecological construction methods when building its new production facility in the Salzburg region of Pinzgau.
The measures implemented have resulted in a positive energy balance and enabled the sustainable reduction of a calculated CO₂ emission equivalent of 140 tons per year.

For us, sustainability is more than a goal – it is an integral part of our corporate strategy.
Through innovative technologies, a responsible supply chain, and a clear ESG focus, we develop sustainable solutions that meet the requirements of tomorrow.
