Fire station De Waterduivel - Mechelen

Description 

This brand new fire station is one of the most important stations in the region. The station has a five-storey office building and a vehicle hall with a full span. This means that there are no propping poles that could impede a rapid response. On top of the hall there is a fitness room and a sports hall. The new building also has sleeping quarters, workshops, an exercise tower and an exercise ground. By the way, the whole building is almost energy neutral.

 

Willemen Construct came into being on 1 July 2018 as a result of the merger between Willemen General Contractor and the construction department of Kumpen.
