KOMA builds ano­ther scho­ol building


22. 09. 2014 | News

Over the near­ly twen­ty-five years of its exis­ten­ce, KOMA has built over fif­ty modu­lar scho­ol buil­dings. Edu­cati­on is an area on which KOMA focused from the inno­va­ti­ve aspect and also from the pro­mo­ti­o­nal aspect. KOMA was the first com­pa­ny in the Czech Repub­lic to build a modu­lar kin­der­gar­ten and has acqui­red the gene­ral respect and trust of its inves­tors over the years. This is very impor­tant because the say­ing one man’s meat is ano­ther man’s poi­son” is very appo­si­te for the field of modu­lar construction.

One of the most recent pro­jects KOMA rea­li­sed in the field of modu­lar scho­ol buil­dings is the low-ener­gy kin­der­gar­ten in Podo­lí near Brno; the faci­li­ty was cere­mo­ni­ally ope­ned on 29 August 2014. The scho­ol is built using lar­ge-for­mat Com­fort modu­les and, with a total area of 418 m², offers spa­ce for 50 chil­dren in two clas­sro­oms. The kin­der­gar­ten has an insu­lati­on sys­tem with full-colour plas­ter and meets the requi­re­ments of the B ener­gy label for low-ener­gy buil­dings. The clas­sro­oms are fit­ted with radi­ant hea­ting. It is imme­di­a­te­ly evi­dent that modu­lar con­structi­on is not infe­ri­or to con­ven­ti­o­nal con­structi­on in any aspect. On the con­tra­ry: the spe­ed of con­structi­on using the KOMA modu­lar sys­tem has no rival. We belie­ve that this scho­ol buil­ding, which was rea­li­sed thanks to sub­si­dies from the Euro­pe­an Uni­on, will help shat­ter the myth that con­structi­on using modu­les means con­structi­on of Por­taka­bins, or unsi­ght­ly por­table units.
