Neptunus supplies Winter Olympic venue

Having built several award-winning facilities at the London 2012 Olympics, temporary structures specialist Neptunus is again working with Heineken and the Dutch Olympic Committee (NOC*NSF) to supply additional structures for the Holland Heineken House at Sochi 2014.

As an official supplier to the NOC*NSF and a reliable partner to Heineken, Neptunus has been selected to build Holland Heineken House due to its expertise and vast experience throughout the years. This will be situated in the grounds of the AZIMUT Hotel Sochi just 500m from the Olympic Park.

The installation of a double-deck temporary structure took Neptunus technicians just a week. Inside there is a large entrance lobby and a radio studio on the top floor for a Dutch station to broadcast sports programmes live from the Games.

A covered walkway connects the main structure to the prestigious Olympic Club where athletes, sponsors and VIPs can gather for the duration of the Games. Neptunus also built a Heineken ice bar on the rooftop.

On the same site Neptunus erected several temporary storage facilities as well as a TV studio, which was similar to the one at London 2012. The only difference being that during the Olympic Games in London the structure was open and this one is completely closed with wall and window panels, due to the temperature difference.

April Trasler, Neptunus’ UK managing director, said: “Neptunus is delighted to partner with Heineken on this exciting project on the back of London 2012. We also have experience of working in Russia, which meant that we were able to deliver a high quality venue that is suitable for world-class athletes in just a few days.”
