Orders 80 million euro for high-tech technology solutions in German research centres
Gouda – Royal Imtech N.V. (IM-AE, technical services provider in and outside Europe) is to provide the technological infrastructure in a new teaching and research building at the University of Munster in Germany, with a value of approximately 25 million euro. This came in the wake of orders to the value of around 55 million euro received in an earlier stage for providing the technological facilities in several other German research centres.
Imtech is responsible for planning, implementing and the project management of the high-tech technological infrastructure in a new teaching and research building at the University of Munster in Germany. The new building will house innovative research bodies such as the Institute of Pharmaceutical Biology & Phytochemistry, the Institute of Pharmaceutical & Medicinal Chemistry, and the Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology & Biopharmacy, and will replace the former premises that no longer met today’s teaching and research requirements. The new building will have a surface area of more than 11,000 m² and will offer state-of-the-art research facilities for professors, teachers, and students.
Imtech is providing a total solution that covers water and wastewater, heating and cooling, air-conditioning, gas (including the supply of special gases for research purposes), electricity, telecommunications, and building automation, as well as the complete laboratory infrastructure and laboratory equipment. Sustainable energy provision is also an integral part of the Imtech assignment. The highest gas-related safety standards for German laboratories and research institutes will be factored into the project.
Earlier, Imtech received orders for high-tech technology solutions in, among other places, the Skylab in Heidelberg, the Max-Planck-Institut für Eisenforschung (MPIE) in Düsseldorf, the Fraunhofer Institut ISE in Freiburg and the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) in Karlsruhe, the laboratory of the University of Heidelberg and the extension of the laboratory research facilities of the Berlin biotech park.
