HOLLAND’S LARGEST AND MOST IMPRESSIVE SHOPPING MALL.
In 2017 mbX was asked to partner as a concrete specialist, to work on the realization of Holland’s largest and impressively designed shopping mall: Mall of the Netherlands in Leidschendam. Part of the project was to create a mock-up of the facade and its folding awning first. This was set up at Concrete Valley and enabled the contractor to test if all the curved elements met the aesthetic and technical requirements. The Mall of the Netherlands is being worked on as we speak and is scheduled to be completed in 2020.

INSTALLATION FACADE ELEMENTS
The time-lapse gives an impression of the installation of the facade elements of the Mall of the Netherlands. The elements are made of glass fibre reinforced concrete. Smart engineering and innovative moulds allowed us to make this project happen.
