Format Nature welcomes sport to Ringsted

At Ringsted Sports Centre, many clubs come together under one roof to share the facilities inside and outside the sports hall. Here, you can try everything from swimming and shooting to tennis and gymnastics – and everything in between. For several years, the many clubs have had even more room for activities since Ringsted Sports Centre was expanded with an extension connecting all the centre’s facilities.

With its distinctive silhouette, the extension evokes both aircraft and birds’ wings when viewed from the gable end. The gentle angle of the butterfly roof creates the illusion that the roof could lift off from the building at any moment – just like the gymnasts who leap from the floor inside, or the swimmers who push off from the bottom of the pool to glide forwards through the water.

The façade welcoming all the athletes inside is clad in Format Nature. This gives the façade a look that is both contemporary and modern, and when you get close to it, you can appreciate the subtle interplay created by the galvanised panels.

Format Nature can withstand the wear and tear of time

A sports centre must be able to withstand extensive use both indoors and outdoors, and this is where Format Nature plays an important role at Ringsted Sports Centre. The panels are 3 mm thick, which means they do not dent easily. The façade therefore remains attractive, even when ball games are played against the wall or bicycles are left by the entrance. This also gives the façade a longer service life, benefiting those responsible for maintaining the building while also keeping resource consumption down.

Steel cladding develops a unique patina

Format Nature consists of hot-dip galvanised flat sheets, and this particular treatment can give your project a completely unique appearance. The galvanisation means that each sheet looks unique when viewed up close, as a distinctive pattern forms on the surface. Over time, the surface of Format Nature also develops a distinctive patina, which further enhances the sheets’ attractive, raw appearance.
