EURO 2016: ...and TROX is right there!

You can't miss it. It is on TV, on the radio and all over the internet; it is THE topic the whole world is excited about, is discussing the good and the weak points; nothing seems to move us more at this time. What are we talking about? You guessed it: the 15th European football championship, the eagerly awaited EURO 2016, which takes place in France from 10 June until 10 July.

This Friday the French team will literally kick off the championship by playing Romania. More than 2 million tickets for the 51 matches have been sold which means that millions of visitors will descend on the ten stadiums. Almost needless to mention that such a high number of spectators requires not only extraordinary security measures, but also extraordinary efforts with regard to the ventilation and air conditioning.

The stadiums have hence been considered very ambitious building projects. Bordeaux, Lille, Lyon and Nice boast brand new stadiums, while the Parc des Princes in Paris has been revamped.

TROX France has also contributed to the new stadium in Bordeaux, an arena for 42,000 people that was built by the Vinci-Fayat consortium. TROX has provided VAV terminal units of Type TVR and Type TVT with Easy controllers as well as AK shut-off dampers in order to ensure the safety of the visitors and let them enjoy the matches in a comfortably ventilated stadium. Football fans in the Bordeaux stadium will hence be able to fully concentrate on the five matches.

Kick off is on 10 June at 21.00 h local time.
The German team will face their first challenge two days later, on 12 June, against Ukraine.
We are all looking forward to four weeks filled with excitement, great matches and great emotions.
